After putting away all of my holiday decor,
I noticed little touches of red here and there in some of my rooms...
not necessarily intentional.
not necessarily intentional.
I'm actually liking that subtle pop of color in January.
And even the not so subtle!
Every room needs a little bit of red, don't you think?
Keeping the spirit of Christmas alive into the New Year.
I appreciate all you sweet friends who have hung in there with me
during my first year of blogging. Thank you for all of
your visits and your encouraging comments!!

Love your little pops of red. You know that Valentines is next .......
ReplyDeleteI love all your vintage pops of red. You know I love me some red.
ReplyDeleteYour little pops of red are wonderful with the neutrals and I love that plaid lunch box. Very pretty, Mary Alice. Have a beautiful weekend. Pamela
ReplyDeleteAll of your red touches are so pretty, and will be just right when Valentine's day rolls around. I tend to leave little bits of red after Christmas too... Have a great weekend...
ReplyDeleteI love all your red touches! I am a red and green girl all year round! Jean
ReplyDeleteHi Mary Alice,
ReplyDeleteYour hints of red are beautifully soft and subtle. Red is my favourite colour so I have used it in bigger doses (a whole armchair!) around my place!
Have a lovely weekend,
Poppy

I have found the same thing happening in my home and I have never done red at all. I think it's here to stay. I like your reds!

As usual, I love most everything you do, but my favorite is still the enamelware cake bin with the breadboards. :) I LOVE red, so there are touches of it here and there in my home as well. Love to you!
ReplyDeleteI just LOVE red....and if you ever, ever sell that chicken, please let me know...
ReplyDeleteLove it! Love the chick also. My parents owned a cement statue buisness and have everything you can think of. I have a couple of things and hope to collect a few more... Enjoy your weekend.
ReplyDeleteI love the little pops of red! Looks so good up against the white.
ReplyDeleteLuv it!! I agree.. we all need little pops or not so little pops of red :-)
ReplyDeleteI deChristmassed the home yesterday, and left up pine cones, red berries , dried magnolia leaves and cotton bolls. Leaving me with a colour scheme of creamy white, brown, faded green and red. Luv it..
Cheers, Gee
I love the little pops of red! It adds cheer to a cold winter day!

Hi Mary Alice!
ReplyDeleteI just had my first year bloggaversary the other day, too- grats!
I love all your peeks of red in your pictures, definately looks GREAT!
I especially liked that little tea towel (?) with the initials ES on it, those are my daughter's initials!
And for me, nothing like your birdies, I am a huge fan.
i am not a red person yet i love how you are living with it. it balances the neutrals so well and so appetizing!
ReplyDeletegorgeous styling.

You always have such neat linens, Mary Alice.
ReplyDeleteI agree wholeheartedly. Red is essential to keep things looking cheerful during the gray days of winter. I love your little pops of red. And the big ones too. :@
ReplyDeleteI love you "bits" of red and I love your blog! Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteSweet bits of red. I don't have a lot of it...but it shows up occasionally!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty and looks wonderful with the neutrals. I have the French book you have at the top. Isn't it great?!
ReplyDeleteHope you are enjoying your weekend!

Such vintagey goodness! I love all the linens...they add so much warmth and texture. You have the knack of putting them in just the right place. Happy Sunday!
ReplyDeleteI love subtle touches of red among neutrals. Your style is very romantic and fresh.
ReplyDeleteI've been using pops of red in my kitchen and blue in my living room - in fact, I just posted about the same thing! :-)
ReplyDeleteGlad you left some hints of red lying around. It adds a certain energy to the room.
ReplyDeleteHugs,

I love red and little touches of it are great surprises! Yes, every room can use a bit of red to warm it up! Congrats on blogging for one year - looking forward to more! Hugs, Leena
ReplyDeleteI like it too...you don't need much just a pop here and there...so pretty! x0
ReplyDeleteWent to the opening of Rust and Feathers today! Just wanted to let you know your space looks Fabulous! Loved it all!
ReplyDeleteYes, I think so too! I love all your touches. I've so enjoyed reading your blog this past year. :-)
ReplyDeleteLovely! I agree; we need all the color we can get during these dark January days!
ReplyDeleteThe perfect little cheery cherry pop!
ReplyDeleteYou do subtle and not so subtle red very well Mary Alice.
ReplyDeleteOh I do indeed love those pops of red, I don't like having to put most of the red away after Christmas. This year I found a way to keep some of it out by tweaking it a bit into "winter them". Your vignettes are all beautiful. Mary
ReplyDeleteThe bits of red, especially that metal box, do the trick. Nice touches to help hang onto the season.
ReplyDeleteLiz
The little bits of red look very pretty. Just enough to make it special.
ReplyDeleteFor me, it is more than a touch of red. Love your little red details.
ReplyDeleteI love pops of red! I especially love red and turquoise together! So pretty!
ReplyDeleteThose are all so pretty! I love decorating with Red. I'm hosting a craft party at SHOW-licious Home Decor if you would like to participate, I'd love for you to join and link up! :)

ReplyDeleteThis all looks so pretty. I really like the little subtle pops of red. Hey, you can keep this going right through Valentine's Day.
