Red didn't seem to be a real popular color in the 1976 issue of the Eaton's catalogue - how we looked forward to the catalogue arriving to pick out our new wardrobe. I think we were buying anything in coral, denim blue, lots of stripes and flowers. Most of the household decor was in shades of brown, rust, orange and yellow - I remember those colors!!! So, here we go - some red for
Rednesday to take you back to 1976.
