It's Rednesday!

Okay, I think I've just come to a realization.  Red is my favorite color.  How did this happen?  Blue was always my favorite (and don't worry Royal Blue, you're still in the top three) but somehow, red just snuck in to #1.

We just got back on Sunday from Louisville, so I have no Christmas decorations out, but that can't keep me out of Rednesday.

Today I'm sharing a little piece that I just had to have and then I didn't know what I was going to with it.  Well, one day, inspiration struck and I hung it at the end of my counter.  
I loved the red, I loved the picnic gingham, and I loved the spoon hooks! 

One of the great things about it is when I change my kitchen colors (soon I hope) I can change the fabric backing and keep on using it.


Not only cute, but handy too!

And a bonus red for you on Rednesday - my oilcloth bags!  

Thank you Sue for coming up with this brilliant idea to celebrate Red (especially now that I realize that red is #1 with me)!

Please stop by and check out the other wonderful reds being shared over at
It's a Very Cherry World.  I know I will!

Thanks for stopping by.  I sure wish you were here sharing this vanilla breve latte with me.  Ahhhhh!  Doesn't that sound yumptious (another new word I've made up)?  I'll gladly make one for you.  Maybe you'd like a piece of homemade English toffee to go with that latte?  My mother-in-law sent back a nice little can of it for us to enjoy and share.

  7. Well...now I am RED with envy over that cute little hook holder thingy.
    You had to mention the toffee which now means I had to put some cookies in the oven. It's all your fault!:-)So happy to hear you and Baby Bee had the chance to see snow, too.

  14. Love the red check hook thingy. I love your kitchen and wondered if you ever changed your color scheme. I personally love the blue/red cherry theme but I know you mentioned you were going to change it but I can't tell from your pics if you ever did.

  18. Handy, Creative and beautiful. What more could one ask for.

    This is an idea I will have to copy.

    I love the oil cloth bags. I have just learned how to make shopping bags from old tee-shirts. They are so handy.

  20. Cute! and I love the yellow bag-- my #1 happy color is yellow!

    haha-- just what unwholesome things did you get up to in Vegas!!Surprisingly, there are still tons of wholesome things in Vegas left over from the family friendly movement of a few years ago-- lots for kids to do-- my 5 yr old had a great time.

    That is a terrific little hook thing! The fact that the hooks are made from spoons really makes the piece! It's adorable.
