By now you have probably heard that Domino is the latest magazine victim to stop its presses. The great thing about Domino was that it made design accessible to everyone. It provided inspiration and the belief that a great room was possible with just a can of paint and a good day at the flea market. In honor of its passing, here is A Bit of Pink and Red.
Classic Kitchens
Lovely Living Rooms
Kitchy Kid Spaces
Breathtaking Bathrooms
Pretty Patios
Beautiful Bedrooms
Thank you, Domino for 28 great issues. Here’s hoping you pull a Victoria.

Very cozy, whimsical design… I love it. Too bad about the magazine, I wasn’t familiar with it, but from the looks of it, I would have greatly enjoyed.

parTea lady says
Nice photos. Too bad about the magazine. I picked up Domino once in a while. Some of my subscription mags have also folded. I’m not sure I’d like paper magazines to become a thing of the past, leaving only online options.

Lovely images. Thank you for posting them.>>Alfazema
Tracy says
Pretty post, Laura. LOVE the kitchen with red chairs. And one of these days, I’m going to put paper parasols or lanterns on SOMEBODY’S (I don’t care whose) ceiling!! I need a bold client with little girls or a youthful spirit… So sad about Domino, but I’m still much more upset about Cottage Living and Country Home.

Yes, it’s a sad day! I love the photos!!! I hope more decor mags will not fold! I have a few special favs still holding on…Debbie

Hi! I came over to say “Thanks for stopping by my site!” but got stuck reading all your posts and looking at all you great photos. I especially liked your post on architecture. So interesting! But I had to comment here. My daughter turned her room pink last fall. 🙂 Here’s a post I wrote about it: <>http://tanyadennisbooks.com/2008/10/23/growing-up-girly/<>
