Red Robin’s Egg Blue

I have never been a huge fan of red.

I blame it on my childhood…

My oldest sister always received the blue colored items to match her blue eyes.

My next sister always received the green colored items to match her green eyes.

And I always was stuck with red because they said it matched my eyes from crying.

No doubt that teasing scarred me towards the color red :)

 

However, now paired with Robin’s Egg blue…red becomes my favorite color.

I have been helping Hannah pull together some decorating ideas.

With the help of Country Living,

I made up this storyboard for her.

Storyboards are great way to visualize your space.

Hannah loves Robin’s Egg blue and think a splash of red could add a splash of fun.

Like this vintage sign.

A touch of blue comes from the tea cups and counter canister.

Tomato soup and tray.

 

Red towels serve a dual purpose in this bathroom.

Teeny touches of red are all you need.

I threw in these pictures so you could imagine a bit of red in these blue spaces.

 

Even with a lot of red this room is pretty.

 

 

These periwinkle walls are way too much for me…

but the rest of the furnishings are down home comfy.

Imagine how much better it would be if the walls were neutral.

 

 

Maybe this clock from Pier One is all the red Hannah’s living room needs :)
