vibrant walls with neutral furniture .....

Flower Market: "Designer Flowers"


 Okay so these flowers are tropical, which means most of us do not have access to them ... however, they serve as inspiration on what can be done with a handful of gorgeous blooms and a simple glass vase ....

Some Red Inspiration

I always enjoy a simple, understated room enlivened with touches of red ... these exampler are perfect - they show you how to ring the changes; how to enhance your space with bits of red fabrics and other small objects....
have a great Ruby Tuesday and click here to see more wonderful Ruby posts
