In honor of Valentine’s Day this coming weekend, I thought I’d do a collection of red items. The cyclamen is sitting on our coffee table, and the red throw and pillow are on the red chair in my studio. The other red flowers were photos taken earlier.
Red is my favorite color, and as I sit and write this post, I’m sipping tea from a red cup. I could have photographed my red kitchen chairs, the red carpet on our stairs, or one of my red sweaters, or even the new red heart charm I purchased this week in anticipation of Valentine’s Day. I’m surrounded with red hearts and valentine stamps as I try to get ready for the weekend. Valentine’s Day was my father’s favorite holiday, and I try to honor his memory by making sure my kids and grandchildren get a special card on Valentine’s Day. I’ll be back on Monday with a look at this year’s projects.
What’s your favorite color? Linking up with Helena and off to see what other collections have been posted this week.
I’m a fan of red too and I love that cushion. I, too, have Valentine’s Day in mind this afternoon. It’s not quite the same here, as we tend to only send to our husband/boyfriend/significant other. More fun in the US I think.
Blue is my favourite but I must say I like the odd pop of red. Nice collection. I’m making use of getting unlimited internet on the ship so watch out for comments on other posts. Lol
I just bought a red stool for our kitchen and it’s something new for me. I’m always drawn to paler colours but I’m breaking out of my comfort zone
I love my pops of red in the kitchen. But for the most part I’m a blue & green kinda girl – and the more a color reminds me of the shore (think sea glass) the more I love it!
What a lovely collection. I like red & I was told that you should always have something red in a room. Peonies are one of my favourite flowers.
wow- gorgeous reds!!!
What a beautiful series Karen.
I’ve always loved red and as a little girl I always painted my suns red 😉
a lovely rich set of images. I love red and purple
They are a lovely collection of reds and they have come out well. Red flowers in particular can be quite tricky to capture. Pink is my favourite.
Wow!
Those colors are fantastic.

Great group of red photos. It’s probably well known that my favorite color is yellow! 🙂
