Decorating with Red - The Caffeinated Writer

Whether you want to add a little color to your kitchen or a bold statement to your living room, red packs a huge punch. The color red is passionate, joyful, and energetic. While red walls can be overwhelming, a red and white striped rug, a gorgeous red console table, or even a simple red bowl bring vitality and playfulness to a room.

I love the Lola Double Drawer Table in glossy red from One Kings Lane. At $369.00, it provides huge impact and instant glamour for a really decent price.

If you just want to add an inexpensive pop of color to the kitchen, a counter-worthy red mixing bowl will do the trick.

Two red stools on either end of a neutral sofa make a boring room beautiful, and a couple of pillows with red in the pattern will pull it all together. Shown: the Garden Stool in Red Pepper, a chic and useful piece at $129.
