SIMPLY SENSUAL RED!
I have had a love affair with the colour Red most of my life. As an Aries it is my colour.
We had a lot of old movies theatres in the city I grew up near, they are long gone now. I used to love to go there, sometimes I did not care what movie was playing, I just loved to sit in the plush red seats. Every old movie theatre had them. I guess at the time they were built red seats meant elegance, a trip to the movie theatre was special then.
I just adore seeing a red barn. They seem so bright and cheery. Red shutters, whether new or worn just make a house pop.
I have never actually seen a red gate but after seeing this one I just have to put one somewhere on the farm. My doors are all red, I just think seeing a red door on a house draws you in.
How wonderful it must be to have a red phone booth. You would always now where they were if you had to find one.
Oh, and a red car, you can't miss one of those. It does not matter whether it is a pricey sports car or a simple little bug, you can't help but notice a red car coming your way.
When I was remodeling our kitchen, I really wanted a red Aga. Unfortunately it would have been the cost of remodeling and a small car. I do love red appliances, I have small ones but one day who knows.
A red sofa is a bold statement. It almost says " Come, sit, lounge, you know you want to."
When you flip through a magazine and come across an ad with red in it you just stop and look, you can't help it.
A woman who wears red lipstick knows she will be glanced at. Red lips just look kissable.
Oh, red shoes! I have had many pairs over the years. They just make me feel special. And what gives more confidence than wearing a red dress. Even a pair of Wellies in red makes working on the farm feel a little special.
Red Hair! I wish I had the guts to dye my hair one of these shades even for a little while. Shocking, bold, sensual, those are the words that come to mind when I see these animated shades of red hair.
Even Little Red Riding Hood had the right idea. She should not have been wearing such a luscious, bright colour when walking through the woods but she just couldn't resist.
That is how I feel. Red is alluring. Red is timeless. In fashion, decor and life it is a scrumpious, comforting, delicously decadent colour that adds a little thrill to your life. Be bold, be brave, grab yourself something red.
Just two more days to enter my FEEL THE LOVE GIVEAWAY so go to this post and do so today.

KNOCK, KNOCK!
I just love doors, especially old doors. To me the front door, or any door, into your home should be special.
The colour of your door says a lot about the person inside. Red, which is one of the most popular colours, means "Welcome".
A Blue door, the colour blue meaning Sky and Water, signifies "Abundance & Prosperity".
Yellow shows "Wisdom, Perception & a little Humour."
You have a lot of energy if your door is Purple.
A Green door shows you have "Peace, Compassion and your home is full of Harmony."
If Pink is your colour of choice you are a "Nurturer".
Black means "Strength, Power & Authority" perhaps that is why the Prime Minister's door is Black in England and most Soliciters doors are too.
Leave your door Natural Wood if you are a Purest and close to Nature.
Adorning your Front Door with lovely Doorknobs and Door Knockers just shows how fanciful you are. I love Door Knockers and have them and Bells at every outside door in my home. I collect lovely Door Knockers and I really like it when the weather takes over and they age a bit. Old Door Knobs are my passion but can be hard to find.
Whether simple or elaborte, your Front Door is the entrance to your home. What does your Front Door say about you?
