Reconsidering Red






Red is probably one of the color that I gravitate towards the least in home decor and fashion, but... after seeing these images from the home of Jenny from Little Green Notebook I may have to reconsider. Every room in her home is so very chic, and the bold splashes of red have a lot to do with why. I'm starting to make plans to redecorate my master bedroom... maybe I will use these rooms as inspiration!

I just love the office in Jenny's home. It was the source of inspiration for a room in my house. I was a little afraid of red too before following her lead. I'm surprised you don't love red though - these pics look very 'Peacock Feathers' to me! Give it a try, I say!

I have her pictures in my inspiration file too.

I shared the same red phobia until you got me that Marimekko pillow.

I love red! But you already knew that. I can't wait to see the bedroom redesign. You always come up with something great!

I love Jenny's entire house, it is so cute, and done on budget! It doesn't get much better than that!

I have been gravitating away from red as well. But it sure looks good as an accent color. Especially with blue!

The turquoise and red in that bedroom is so great! I love it.

these images look familiar... i've saved most of them as inspiration too! cheers to similar taste. i too am a bit hesitant when it comes to red (perhaps i think it would be too much with my red hair) but these pictures make a pretty strong case.
