I love color! Bright bold colors, soft muted neutrals, rich gemstone colors.... you name it... I like it. Except for one color... Red. It's just an "OK" color to be used as a complement in a color scheme. I think it goes back to my childhood. The first shoes I remember wearing were bright, shiny, red patent leather shoes, with a baby doll strap. I wore a white dress with big red polka dots and a red straw hat. Waaay too much red! So imagine my surprise today when I chose red as the theme for my "Fantasy Shopping Saturday". As I was searching for beads, it just kept popping up... talking to me! Pick me, pick me... And so I did. Today I'm seeing the color red differently. It's bold, it commands attention, its exciting, and it exudes passion! So check out the red glass beads I found in the Fire Divas Etsy and Artfire shops. Wouldn't you just love to own one of these?!?
I know the following are not red...but they were so pretty I had to include them anyway! :-)
