I hesitated for years on a black wall. When I decided to paint my headboard wall black, I loved it so much I went for all four walls. One wall was almost 75 white wall wooden closet doors and the adjacent wall I placed white floor to ceiling drapes. It turned out to be the most restful place ever! I did not want reflected light, so I used flat paint. I am looking for a way to use the same paint in my current home. I am no longer afraid of black. Also, I painted the ceiling in a small entry black and the ceiling disappeared, like a dark sky above. It was wonderful!

About 10 yrs ago I painted our bedroom a VERY dark navy blue {semi-gloss} with white trim. I loved it! It was very restful and calming. I did white bedding and furniture with silver accesories. If I did it again I'd add pops of color to the mix, something bright and fun.

Go for the black! Worst case scenerio, you can always repaint. :)

LOVE black walls. I used a semi gloss, but like Eva said, you have to make sure your walls are flat if you're going too glossy. Flat might look a little chalkboard-ish.
