More Red and Green

My love affair with red and green seems pretty evident when I am looking through all my photos when I am loading them onto the blog. Thought I'd share some more lovelies today.

vintage rolling pins

Funny I never realized I was always buying red and green rolling pins until I displayed them all together in this crock.

    I hope the linky is working now. Come back over and link these lovely rolling pins to THT.
    I have my mom's rolling pin (we called it a dough roller!) she made many many biscuits with it during my childhood.
    I appreciate you linking up and don't forget to link back to the party post so your readers can go over and see more treasures.

    I didn't realize there was such a difference in the handles of rolling pins. Makes a nice display in the crock!

    I'm with you and love red and green. Years ago I thought of those going together ONLY at Christmas but I love the look all year long. :) Great rolling pin collection....can you imagine all the pies and bisquits they've made?

    You have a fabulous grouping of rolling pins! Red & green is one of my favorites too - especially when it comes to quilts!

    Thank you for sharing your wonderful treasures.

    I love your rolling pins. Isn't it funny how we keep gravitating to the same colors?

    I'm the same way - time and time again I go for yellow and red - I guess we each have our own colour setting!

    Great metal basket and I, too, never knew that rolling pins came in such bright colors. Love how they look in the crock.

    I haven't seen wooden rolling pins like that since I was a child. Thanks for the memories!


    COLOR DILEMMA

    Yellow or red—which shall it be?
    Red for you and yellow for me?

    Perhaps you’d rather have yellow instead—
    Which leaves me, of course, with handfuls of red!

    Whichever hue you decide to choose,
    I’ll take the other—no one will lose!

    Hi Sunny Simple Life,
    I too, love red and green.I like them together as in all things Christmas. This year I'm not making Christmas decorations for my family as I have done for the 10+years and I'm finding it a challenge kicking the red and green habit.
    I especially like your rolling pins and the way you have displayed them.
    God Bless

    That's quite a lot of rolling pins! I've never seen them with colored handles but I love them! Much better than the usual all wood color ones :)

    I think it all looks wonderful. My mom is currently doing a red and green kitchen. If she doesn't see this on her own (She enjoys looking at the Simple Pleasures party, I'll give her a head's up to come see.

    As a friend, and only as a friend mind you, I am willing to help with this addiction. Please forward all the items pictured here and I will keep them away from you.

    It's a friend thing.

    Really.

    There is no lust in my heart for those wickedly cool collectibles you have...I mean...for those red and green addictive things.

    ha!

    Thanks for a cute link this week.

    A+
