Red and blue - a perfect combo for boys


I stumbled across this image in blog-land a little while ago and had to look twice as the big "A" canvas on the wall reminded me so much of the 'My Very Own Initial' design in our canvas art range. Our canvases are not so large but they are very, very similar. The colours are almost identical. Isn't weird how this happens sometimes? Here's our Gelati Art one below.


I designed this in 2007 and it is still one of our most popular designs for boys. Since then I've also added in the co-ordinating Play, Laugh, Dream canvas set in this colourway. And of course our fun Red Racer and Beep, Beep, Zoom collection also comes in these colours.

Stumbling across the top image reminded me what a great colour combination red and blue is for boys' bedrooms. It's one of those classic combinations that never goes out of style. I've noticed it's also becoming a very popular colour scheme for girls' rooms.


I love the cushions on this window seat and the stripey walls. What a fantastic kids' playroom.
