Seeing RED!

I am not one to go completely over the top and paint my entire house red, but splashes here and there are a must when I want to add a little burst of unexpected color. Check out some of my favorite red items and spaces for a little inspiration!


Have a seat on CB2's Hippie Dining chair, Plush Pod's Orbit Poly chair, and Branch's Cain Collection chair:




Perhaps a pop of red in your kitchen? Check out this space from PointClickHome:



Now if red cabinets aren't your thing, maybe just a few red splashes from Target and Pottery Barn?




How about a special place to house your favorite memories and tiny items? West Elm has beautiful boxes and frames to do just that!




I have a mild pillow obsession and feel they are the perfect accessories to use when wanting to change the look of a room! Check out these red beauties from Scandinavian Details:




Surely your taste buds would like a little red too!



If these have inspired you to bake your own red velvet cupcakes, check out this easy recipe!


Aside from the fact that red is beautiful and can add a little excitement to our lives, it can also make a difference in the lives of others. If you have not already, get involved in Your contributions will help out more than you know!

Add a little RED into your life!!!

Who says baby furniture has to be ugly?

I'm not going to lie. The thought of having children scares me a little, but not for the reasons you might think. Sure, the sleepless nights, constant feedings, diaper changes, moments of not knowing what the heck to do with the screaming baby, etc. are enough to freak out anyone, but for me it's more about their "stuff." All of that baby and child "stuff" that they will accumulate. Where will it all go? It won't match our design style! Maybe we shouldn't have children! These are the crazy, irrational thoughts that run through my head.

In the midst of one of my freak-outs, I stumbled upon Scandinavian Details and it gave me hope! :D For a moment I could breathe knowing it would be possible to find baby furniture that didn't necessarily scream, "baby!" Check out this highchair! While it kind of reminds me of The Jetsons, I think it's kind of cool!..a baby space chair!

So maybe that's taking it a bit far, but I sure think it would be a fun addition to our funky style!
Then I saw these and fell in love! Look at that awesome design! I must have one.


And if you are thinking those look uncomfortable, they do come with cushions in some great colors!


In addition to their great style, these chairs may be adjusted as your child grows. Check out the age range...and don't they look happy?

Okay. Highchair? Check.

Then I remembered, babies don't just pop out highchair ready! I need a seat!...something for the baby to hang out in before it's able to sit in a highchair. I found this and think it will be just perfect!!





Now, are all of these pieces practical? Eh?..probably not, but they sure do give me hope that I can find baby furniture that matches my style and as my search ended, I became a little more comfortable with the idea of bringing a new little person into our home. :)
