I can fully understand why the spectrum of reds is the choice of so many artisans. It’s so rich and inviting and just a little bit solemn – or maybe that’s just my mood today. It was not too long ago that I couldn’t stand the colour red in any form. That had something to do with my school blazer being red and wearing red is a recent development for me. Now I seem to have embraced it with zeal. What about you, are you a fan? Narrowing my choices down to three was very hard, but here’s what I found:
TOP: Sew Sweet Stitches Cranberries and Cream Earrings. I would probably never wear these, but I loved the detail of both the earrings and the photos.
MIDDLE: Carambatack Design’s Peacock Dark Red Print. This is just so lovely and I confess I see the world of print design a little differently since completing my screen printing workshop last weekend. I would love to include this on one of my walls. I love the design, the colour and the paper its printed on.
BOTTOM: Antique Linen Store’s Antique Hemp Linen in Dark French Red. I just love these french fabrics. This one is an upholstery weight and I could see it working perfectly on my dining room chairs.
P.S. – I bought the peacock and one of her beautiful trees.
