100+ Inspiring Photos Celebrating RED!

f you've been following my blog for very long, you know of my deep love of the color red. People have asked me if it was a hard decision painting my kitchen cabinets red or if I'm tired of them now, and I always tell them that I just knew my cabinets had to be red. I don't even think I ever considered another color. Am I tired of the red cabinets yet? Not in the least! I still find myself standing and peering into our kitchen, thrilled still with the warm and cheery vibe the red paint produces. I think I'm determined now to have this vibrant color in every room of our house in one form or another. I may even paint our bed red {whenever we finally get to our dark, cave of a bedroom...}. Perhaps my laundry room will have a red diamond patterned floor, and my studio will definitely have one piece of red furniture. I think I've just about got hubs convinced to paint our exterior red when we are able to replace the current rickety old siding. Ahhh...it's so exciting to think about. What's not to love about red!

To celebrate my favorite color, I've scoured the web for some of the best red inspiration photos - 104 of them to be exact. I hope you enjoy looking at these as much as I do!

What a great idea to use a screen door for the pantry - and to paint it red to boot!

I actually have this sweet ironing board cover from Hestia Houseworks Cottage Eclectic. It makes ironing super exciting! {not really, but maybe a little less boring}

...and lastly, a little something red from my house:)

Do you love red as much as I do? I'd love to know which photos are your favorite.

In the meantime, I'll be continuing to clean out cupboards and closets and all those fun things one does when fall is around the corner {and when one's mother will be staying over}. I'll be back to work on my studio later this month and will have more progress photos to share around that time. Next on the agenda is changing out the tile grout. Fun! I'll "see you" on Friday, though!
