RED D OR KNOT

RED

Billy Beson says, "Harness the attention-getting

power of red in your home with these tips:

A good way to find a red paint you can live with is 

to choose a red in a fabric, rug, wallpaper, artwork

or even from nature, and match it.  Always try out

several shades of red paint on the wall first, and view at

different times of day, including nighttime.

Red looks fabulous with black and white.  Pair it 

with charcoal sketches in silver frames, hounds tooth

check or gray flannel stripes.

Don't overdo a good thing.  Red needs to be tempered

with neutrals such as white, cream, camel or silvery gray.

If you have red walls in a room, keep furnishings neutral.  

Red works well with nearly all woods, metals, and

many stones."

I love red this time of year.
