a week of color: red (and pink)

jon and i just returned from a long weekend on the oregon coast. how i wish we could have stayed for the month. it was beautiful. the weather was perfect. we really enjoyed our time together, and we were able to spend time with my brother and his girlfriend when they came for part of the time.

i want to continue to feel like i am on a bit of a vacation, so this week will be about photos i think...

i have been enjoying kayte's blog for a little while now and was delighted to discover that she is prompting her blog readers to participate in a week of color this first week of july. today is all about the pink and red...and you know i love to bring on the pink (and the buttons)!

here are the pink and red things finding their way into the little room today:

trim that will make its way onto flags

a little of heather's freshcut fabric to become selma bags and totes

vintage red buttons found in a delightful shop near cannon beach

How are pink and red making an appearance in your life today?
