Red Ticking

I’m headed to Seattle this week and my trip from Portland isn’t complete without a visit to Red Ticking. A designer in Oregon told me about this shop and it never disappoints!!! The owner is so personable and I love her taste.

There are so many great shops on E Madison, and this one is really stand out. European imports, vintage items and one of a kind hand-​made creations stopped me in my tracks. Here, in this small boutique, Madison Valley takes a sharp turn toward East Hampton. Ralph Lauren himself would jaw drop from all of the red and blue striped fabrics, hand-​thrown bowls and french oyster baskets.
Not to mention, it’s a food-​bloggers paradise. Even on a budget you can secure cute little spoons, plates and napkins creating that perfect backdrop for a fab photo shoot.
If you’ve been on the hunt for unique, high quality décor — or ever wanted to voyeur inside a Martha Stewart catalog — you’ve just hit home.

Red Ticking is one of my favorite places in Seattle!
Pam really gets it! She has amazing taste:)

This is the store with all the great stuff! I first saw Red Ticking in a few magazines, then went it to browse. I met the owner, who graciously told me about the ins and outs of becoming a shop owner (I spoke with her about opening up a store of my own). She was extrememly nice. And her shop was a great reflection of her talent. The pillows and fabrics from France are wonderful. She puts alot of detail and variety in a small space. I recommend it to everyone for inspiration or those special gifts.

Gorgeous stuff. I just wish I could afford to scoop it all up… The proprietress is very nice and has a fresh design sensibility. She carries a cool mix of nature-​inspired pieces and classic House Beautiful items. Check it out if you’re looking to decorate and have a high credit limit — or just to get inspired.
