Here a Tweak, There a Tweak

Good morning and am I glad to see you this morning. It is so cold out but the coffee is on and yes, it is the Seattle Best Cinnamon. Hopefully you like it too. Grab a redware mug and help yourself. Lets sit by the fireplace and just visit. I need some advice. (May not heed it, but I need it)lol My house has the blahs! Does yours? I have always enjoyed using red because it is always so cheery. I have a ton of red in this house. My Grandma Wright did not like red, I think she thought it was too flashy, and she was such a classy lady. I have often wondered what she would think of all my  red decor.

Big Red Couch! I like it though.

Red Pantry box.

Red chair.lol No, Grandma would not be happy with all of my red. She was a green person herself. She said it never went out of style.
I come from a long line of nesters and tweakers, as my Mother and Grandmother loved their homes. My Mother loved everything floral. I do not do florals. We had them every where. Wall paper, slip covers, floors, drapes, you get the picture don't you? LOTS of florals. It just occurred to me, I am just like her except with red!lol
I just redid what is on my table.Red? Oh yes.lol

The coffee pot was my very first piece of pewter. It was from my great aunt. I may just have to do a blog about her sometime. She was some what eccentric, but I loved her and loved seeing her come to visit. Her name was Cleona and she was my Grandma's sister.
My pewter collection has grown to this, since that first piece.

 Any way, that one coffee pot caused major damage. Isn't is funny how one particular thing can start a life time collection? Kind of like life isn't it? One particular thing, good or bad, can cause a life time of good or a life time of damage.
I have had these candles from Libby since July. I  didn't know what to do with them, for sure. Oh they smell so good and I wanted to have them near the sitting area of the living room. I came up with this. I have seen others display them on their mantles.

Sure is a lot of red in these pictures. guess my question is, should I tone it down? Is it over whelming?
Don't know if you have noticed, but I have passed the 200 follower count. I am so humbled by your visiting and having coffee with me. Thanks to each of you from the bottom of my heart.
There are some changes coming  Through My Back Door. I will share with you soon, but thanks for the visit today Through My Back Door where life is good.

PS: Should you ever come in by the front door, which I never expect, this is what you would see.

You know what? We do.(Deb painted this years ago)
