I wasn't going to write a new Post until we moved, but waiting IS TOO HARD!
I have been sitting here, not changing a thing, going crazy!!
Linda, our Realtor, started this madness when she stopped by yesterday afternoon.
She asked if I ever used other colors in our home decor!
I immediately thought about my Red Ottoman!
We had bought the red ottoman years ago when Kenneth Brown, my favorite Designer, suggested it for our cocktail table. Kenneth believes every room needs some POP OF RED!
I must add at this point. Magz, I am only borrowing it....it is yours and you will get it as soon as you move.
We had the ottoman packed away in the garage. The moment I showed it to Linda all madness proceeded!!
We tore the house upside down. Pictures, chairs, pillow, tons of accessories ......all moved.....
We were adding RED to my White, Black, Gold, Silver and Gray decor!!!
It made sense!
What color comes to mind for February? RED..of course!
OK....OK I'll stop the chatter and put up the pictures......
See that little POP of RED???
OTHER CHANGES
MIRROR DESK BACK IN BEDROOM
SWITCHED OUT BEDDING
ADDED MORE BLACK TO BEDROOM
AND A DAB OF PURPLE....
Thank you Linda.....
I am now ready for February!!!!!
Maybe I'm a RED person after all!!!
and the first time the triplets have been split up?? NICE :)
ReplyDeleteYes, the other two are still in the hall and look perfect!.
Delete. Amazing how things move so smoothly around here!
Everyone should be a red person!
ReplyDeleteI'll try!
DeleteIt's perfect, Patty. We've been in Beaufort for the last week and I was so glad to see you in my inbox today. I was going to email you for an update. It's been the coldest, snowiest January, so hopefully the cheery red and warmer weather will get a big SOLD sign in your yard. Love the red ottoman and love even more that you just "happened" to have it in your garage...
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing some of the stuff we have stashed!
ReplyDeleteI really like it!! The red is a nice little addition and you added it perfectly.
ReplyDeleteThank you Kathysue,
DeleteIt's working ! I'm such a black and white person and I had to go OUT OF THE BOX!!
the red adds a memorable punch! i am sure it will help! :)
ReplyDeleteCan't beat that POP OF RED!
DeleteI like the addition of red although I love your decor either way. It's been a long cold and illness packed January here. Spring can't come soon enough.
ReplyDeleteI was so happy Linda came over so we could play around! All my ideas are in my head, waiting for our new home to be set and ready!
DeleteRed hot there!!! Someone needs to buy your home furnished!! Or have you and MC decorate it for them. Thanks for the update, Patty. xoxo
ReplyDeleteWould be so easy to just move out! Can you imagine the fun of starting all over....think MC would go nuts!
DeleteI love the pops of red! The ottoman looks so good in there!
ReplyDeleteAmazing what a little POP of red can do!
DeleteThe red looks amazing in there Patty! I guess Kenneth Brown knows of which he speaks!!
ReplyDeleteHe sure does! He was a great help to me in learning all I do about design!
DeleteLove, love, love that big ole red ottoman! It REALLY is a POP! Not a fan of the chair in the dining room. Mr. Chair has his back to the entrance and doesn't relate to the rest of the room (because there isn't a table or a matching chair). I like it the way you had it with those big ole candlesticks!
ReplyDeleteTweaked the "angle" of the chair and added a small whimsical table. Candlesticks are now filling a big hole in the great room. Only have one of the chairs. It's there to pull up to the table as a Host Chair..
DeleteThe perfect dose of pizazz, Patty!
ReplyDeleteTHANKS....Just what the doctor ordered!
DeleteRed is a tricky color but it looks great here! Amazing how a small pop of colour goes a long way!
ReplyDeleteAll thanks to Linda, Our Fantastic Realtor, and Kenneth Brown!
DeleteI am completely in shock that you are moving. I love color but I would have told a realtor that I was leaving my house how it is, but that's my stubborness. I know it will sell super fast.
ReplyDeleteStaging is so much "FUN"!!! I have learned that we can't please everyone.
DeleteYep, that red ottoman was just what that room needed. A stroke of genius. Still can't believe you're moving. Again! Anyway, hope you and MC are well and surviving the cold. Chat soon
ReplyDeleteThanks for your best wishes on this adventure!!!
