Trend spotting | Decorating with Red
Move over honeysuckle, I’m thinking red might be the ‘it’ color for the spring and summer season. I didn’t think anything of it until I was swept away by color with the latest issue of Style at Home magazine. From there, I started to think about all the beautiful spaces I’ve seen recently decorated with red. Has anyone else noticed red popping up lately? Here’s a round up of red inspiration for you… enjoy!
Tommy Smythe’s new red sofa – isn’t it a gem?

Remember the dining room featured in Sarah & Theo’s Sibling Revelry showcase at IDS11?

The only time I don't like red is when you see those inexpensive solid red draperies hung against a light wall & it is the only red item in the room (maybe a couple of pillows with red are thrown in there too) - I always see this on those staging shows and it drives me nuts - makes the room look cheap!
I actually have red punches in my family room, and love the warmth and fun of it! {and thanks for the mention my sweet}
I hadn't noticed a trend towards red in home decor, but I bet after reading your post, I will! :-)
