I love Valentine’s Day. I have scoured the Internet for — as our friend Martha says — a few good things to share with you.

I once heard someone say that adding the colors red or turquoise to a room is like adding jewelry to an outfit. In honor of this Valentine’s Day, consider doing the same. Exchange a plain paper lampshade for a gorgeous red silk shade. Add a red throw, pillow, or coffee table book to your living room. I love red vases too - they’re a great punch of color even when they’re not holding flowers. Red is classic and sexy.

I’m a big fan of Pottery Barn’s new pension for color - brand new for this spring. Bright neons that do not remind anyone of ‘86, awesome pinks, reds and aqua fabric, frames and bath towels.

Happy Hunting!
