A Touch Of RED


I am loving the lacquered red INTERIOR doors.
And one of them is a DUTCH DOOR!!!
I have always wanted one. 


The red pillows and the slip seat cover in red do liven the place up.
Note - the trim at the bottom of the white chair to the right.


Cute red stars and a bit of red in the pillows.


A red back splash is always an option.


Just as red dishes can perk up a cupboard.


The red throw, red in the art, and a few 'diddlywots' on the side table
add interest to the room.


In my mind....you can never go wrong with 
a RED CHINOISERIE MIRROR.


If  you are more contemporary try a coral mirror.

Red Foo Dog Lamps!


I love these red glass bottle/vases.


Don't forget the outdoors.

This isn't anything I would ever do ,
but in the right application I am sure it would do wonderfully.


And the red options you have when it comes to pillows is endless.


If you can believe it...
the red ottoman (above) is from overstock.com.


A red carpet will do the job!!!
Then you can go easy or hard handed
if you wish to add the red additions to finish your space.


Be brave girl!!!
(with this RED ZEBRA)


It is my belief that art is certainly a separate entity.

'Art' should never be chosen to decorate a room 
unless of course you are a hotel room.


But it doesn't hurt 
if you are lucky enough to have found a piece of art that you are in love with 
and it happens to go nicely in a space.


If red frightens you.....

It's a joy that adding gorgeous RED FLOWERS 
can do the job all by themselves!! 

And then they die 

Happy Sunday.

  2. Dear Renee, what a glorious post. I have pinned so many of these images!
    Love the living room at the top, the Foo Dog lamps, the Steel and leather ottoman!
    The art over the bed looks so dramatic because of the extra wide matting!

  3. Hi Renee, darn I miss you! I love red; it's like gin, you don't need a lot of it, just just enough. I hope you are good busy? Think about you and hope you're having a good lazy Memorial weekend?

    Hugs to you xx

  5. I agree Renee I am too big a chicken to pull it off but I sure like a splash of red here and there!

  6. I once had Marymeko red and white wallpaper in my Kitchen....I took it down after just 6 months...It looked adorable, but red made us a little anxious.....I learned I can only have a little red in my decor...I do love red, white and blue together...
