Barb, I'm just dying because everything you've shown here looks like it could come straight out of my house!! We have very similar taste. Which means, of course, that I adore what you posted.

Thanks so much for participating and your patience with my Mr. Linky issues. I will enter your name in the drawing. :)

Just a PERFECT RED post, dear one...

Barb! Your presentation is always so very beautiful. I have no reds in my house although I used to have an all red bathroom, it was nice but now everything in our home is pale aqua, so not much red will go with that.

JD said...

Your post is lovely, as always, I don't have much red in my home...but looking at your photos has made me rethink about my accent colors...Blessings, Jill

Sonia said...

Oh I love the red lampshade on the rooster lamp! You have some really beautiful things and I really love the geranium picture and vignette you've created with it! Beautiful post! Miss Bloomers/Sonia

Barb,

You have so many pretty reds and they all add to the elegance of your home. I especially love the plate on your desk. Do you have the name of the pattern? I enlarged it but didn't recognize it and red and white china is about the only red in my home right now.

I promise to do a thourough check to see if I might spot some for next week's FYR~ this seems like so much fun!!

Enjoy your weekend! :-)

Everything looks lovely, Barb!

My mum has some of the red & white transferware plates with the English castles. I may have to "borrow" them from her.

Thanks for sharing with us :)

I am sure enjoying my first time at this RED party. I had envisioned Bright Cheery RED and so far have seen such rich, dark, deep colors of RED that are just lovely. You have some elegant accents for sure.

Flauntin' RED,

I love all the red touches you've added to your lovely home, and my mom (who collects roosters) is crazy over your rooster lamp in the first picture*! So pretty*! _Ashley ~

Just a little something from Judy said...

Just like you to post such lovely, elegant and tastefully done red pieces from your home. The red touches make me smile. It would be difficult to pick out a favorite, but I think the picture on the bathtub would be my choice. You could have your very own decorator show, and I would be one of your loyal followers.

Brenda said...

I am in LOVE with that first red plate! Where on earth did you get it?

Cathy said...

Love everything about every photo. BTW, you have been tagged. If you would care to play, open the sixth folder of my photos and choose the sixth photo, post it on my blog and tell something about it. Then select 6 other bloggers to tag.

I chose you because you had a picture of your little fur baby. Check out my blog to see the photo of our Caesar.
