A favorite toile

Bosporus has long been one of my favorite toiles.  It’s colorful, linen and a great price..what’s not to like?? So while there are more expensive toiles, and I am not going to lie..I love me some Brunschwig & Fil  or the colorful toiles at Quadrille, this remains a favorite.

My client and I have been working on this space for quite a while.  These chairs finally pulled the room together I think..and she is pleased which is what matters. We will have to talk her into taking a sweeping wide view of the room now that it has drapes and other finishing touches.

I love how this room is elegant but comfy and lived in to with books that have actually been read…and of course I love her smattering of blue and white ginger jars!

Later this week I will show you another favorite fabric I have used a lot lately….it turned out really cute on Bigmama‘s chairs! A bold fabric on chairs in a living room is a risk but it can really payoff!  Live crazy y’all!
