Red Hot: Inspiration

 This month in House Beautiful there was a house that I really loved...

 Designer Ellen O'Neill spends her weekend in this little gem in Bridgehampton

 Some of the red I liked, mostly the washed out colors, like the big vintage fixture...and some seemed to strong like the mirror....and the chairs

 This room is wonderful

It was an interesting article and you can read it here.

 The editor asked Ellen O'Neill if she loved red and her answer was,

 that the "red, just sort of happened"

Hey me too!

 In our little condo project I have used red everywhere...and I'm not sure how it happened!

 I think it started here,

 with the bar stools and the navajo rug on the club chair

 Then I used the grey and red French ticking pillows.....

I think Millies collar is red

 More red with black stripes

 Lots of red in the Bennison fabric

 These are some pillows made from 4th of July bunting,  red white and blue...

 Red on the bait bucket lamps

Red in the French Boutis 

 More red on the swiss army blanket

and some of it on the walls

 I even bought a red tin can with a candle in it!

How did this happen?  

I really don't know...

It just did!
