In the right setting, the punchy combination of black and white can be just right.

Here are 5 gifts, some humorous, some serious, that capture the magic of this striking combination.

This gift will go over really well if the recipient possesses a sense of humor and the ability to laugh at themselves. I love that they saying on Levtex's pillows are written in this My Three Sons font with retro overtones. Husbands, this pillow will win you major points!
Reinforcement helps. The Mr. Right version.

Best post I've seen today! I am so glad to hear the pop-up shop was a success - even though I knew it would be. I love those sweet barrel chairs in front of the French doors. Did you move something out to make room for them? And finally, congrats to your beautiful talented daughter! Merry Christmas, Colorful Designs
