It's Toile, Y'all!

There's a "Toile Party" at The Pretty Organized Palace today. Go over and investigate the different ways people use toile in decorating. I'm a fan!
I had a good friend of mine make valances for my kitchen/hearth room of red toile. She added the gingham check border to it. I really like red and have tried to use it in my home in different ways. I'm very happy with my toile!

Happy Toile, Y'all!

I love your toile valance! I use my vintage hot pads (several made by my Mother and Grandmother) as part of my valances in the kitchen. I've never seen anyone else display theirs as I do!

Have a blessed dady!

That gingham boarder makes it even prettier. But I really love those dishcloths / potholders!

Toile and gingham! Is there anything better? Beautiful!

Toile and gingham are just made for each other, aren't they? Your curtains are gorgeous--I love red!
