The owner of retail shop Flots & Jets [in New South Wales, Australia], Megan Ridgway, hosted a Red and Green Best Nine Challenge [#fjnine] on Instagram about a week ago. I whizzed through the photos on my iPad and stopped at anything red and/or green. Here are the nine images I posted at veronica.fiberantics on Instagram.
