The color red appears in numerous places throughout my home, like in the full vibrant red of my dishes (or rather of 2/3 of my dishes. The other third are yellow.) I love this mix and match set. They replaced a set of simple Corel dishes we'd had since we got married over fifteen years earlier when we needed durable, space-saving dishes which could follow us around to a series of early homes with tiny kitchens and no storage space. We got these last year. They're big, they're heavy, and each bowl takes up half the dishwasher, but they make me smile every time I see them..
.At the other extreme there are the subtle red accents in this handpainted ceramic bowl my husband brought home from Morocco many years ago. Coincidentally, the bowl is hung just to the right of my front door, so it's doing double duty as my Project Show Me offering for today. I'm sneaky like that. (Oh, and the tan triangles are apparently made out of camel bone, but I try not to think about that too much.).
Now speaking of dishes, I really need to head into the kitchen and do some cooking.

Looks really beautiful! Love the second shot:)Mine is posted HERE! Drop by if you get a chance;)
Nice set and great way of showing it.
I like your Moroccan dish too (have one myself along with bowls) but find ot hard to match them with other colors because they are already so colorful.
I love your Moroccan dish. Some day, I hope to do pottery again and mimic the ancients (and middle ages). The subtle colors in the dish are just wonderful.
Oh that bowl is beautiful!
Nice set you've got..yah I wouldn't think much about the bones too if I were you :P
Happy Ruby Tuesday!
I like the bowl but I thought I'd see a door.
In my house you will also find a lot of red, orange and yellow ! I love these colors !
I completely LOVE that dish from Morocco. Your husband has fabulous taste in decorative dishware!
Robin, I think in Israel people wouldn't think of parking on walkways so no need to forceably keep people away with big RED balls! Ha! Thanks for participating on Ruby Tuesday!
BTW, Robin, if that's your kitchen in your header, I love it!
when I first saw the picture of the dishes, I thought it was a shot of those old fashioned lawn chairs! Nice :-)
I love the collage of the dishes. Fabulous and the second dish is beautiful...
I love the vibrancy of the red!
Happy Ruby Tuesday.
That is such a cool idea for RT!
Love the detial shot in the second image. The first one makes me dizzy. But I like it anyway!
It's the most novel front door I've seen so far!
I agree, love the collage of dishes.
Cooking with some red and yellow peppers I hope?
I love your colorful dishes! That collage shot of them is great!
I love red too. It makes me happy. It's bold, like your photos. And I enjoy bold.
You found a great way to combine posts here. I love the patterns in these pictures; especially the first one. Great detail on the second. I'm looking forward to seeing what else you do for this project. :)
What a creative way to present a stack of dishes! Love it! The Moroccan dish is beautiful, too.
The blue plate is gorgeous!! It's my favorite color. I always walked into the Moroccan store in Neve Tzedek. I wanted to buy everything. :)
Beautiful plates and shots.
Lovely, lovely. Have to admit that I prefer the color to the monochrome this time.
