A Tale of Toile!



8 comments:

  1. Ah! I love toile, probably because my mother loved it. She always wanted to do a room in Waverly's Oriental Toile –– one of the Official Williamsburg fabrics. She and my father honeymooned in Williamsburg in 1933 when the place was still new. The influence of that trip never wanted, but mother was never able to have the room she had always wanted.

    Funny! Long after my parents died I was able –– a bit late in life, myself, –– to fulfill mother's dream using the very furniture they had collected in forty-three years of marriage –– furniture I had grown up with plus a few pieces I've added to the collection.

    I know they would love what I did in honor of their memory. I just wish they were still here to enjoy it with me.

    1. I would love to see your rooms. I don't know if Gracie would want any of the furniture I have collected. I know I did not like this style when I was young. I preferred modern art, stainless steel and leather. I like to think my taste has evolved!
      Did I miss your birthday? I have been so busy with my stupid heart that I have missed a great deal. As the dust settles, I am overwhelmed by my obligations.
      If I did, please accept my apologies. I think yiu know I am glad you were born!

  2. Hello pretty lady ! So nice to see you around blog land. Goodness ! I was just thinking of you the other day and how I haven't heard from some bloggers I like.
    Anyway, I adore Toile ! Two years ago I bought Toile beauty in Miami to reupholster my dining tables. I posted it here: http://fabbysliving.blogspot.com/2018/02/toile-de-jeau-for-my-dining-chairs.html
    So happy to see your beautiful home too !
    Keep safe and happy.

  3. A PEP TALK WRITTEN TODAY, AUGUST 3, 2020 TO CARRY WITH YOU TILL NOVEMBER 4TH AND BEYOND

    Since the behavior of Democrats in power at the Supreme Court hearings for Robert Bork, the hearings for Clarence Thomas, those for Brett Kavanaugh, and the more recent Kangaroo Court Attorney General William Barr was subjected to were brutally unfair, circus-like proceedings that turned the nominating process and hearings in each case into a travesty –– a hideous perversion of due process that most closely resembled the infamous "Show Trials" of Stalin's era –– I see no reason whatsoever why we should trust ANY of the Democrats NOT to lie, cheat, steal –– and possibly even kill –– to get their way.

    Democrats are obsessed with an all consuming LUST for POWER that supersedes all other considerations. This makes them exceedingly dangerous to deal with, becuse they are ruthless. Should they win the presidency and claim majorities in both the House and the Senate –– God forbid! –– I would greatly fear for the future of our once-great nation

    Because of the inordinate influence bold, new, hyper-insolent leftist figures like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ilhan Omar, Ratshita Tlaib, and Ayanna Presley seem to have been virtually granted by our avowedly Marxist ENEMEDIA, and the craven acquiescence of Establishment Democrats like Nancy Pelousy, Chuck Schumer, and Jerrold Nadler, who have simply rolled over and played dead for the outrageous demands and highly destructive radical ideas of these hoydenish harpies, our political orientation has been virtually forced to move so far to the left that the tenets and principles that faounded the United States of America have been virtually buried in screeching, roaring, droning, thumping, clattering, nattering, sneering, jeering LEFTIST Propaganda.

    The apparent lack of awareness of this regrettable phenomenon on the part of Republicans, who tend to be stolid, woefully dispassionate, too polite, and frankly otiose when it comes to taking positive action designed to thwart the ambitions of political adversaries is discouraging to say the least. This is the stuff of which RINO'S are made, and the main reason President Trump's admittedly radical, but remarkably wholesome, energizing and restorative "Big Agenda" may not succeed,

    If the GOP had even one TENTH of the virulent energy the LEFT employs in furthering its nefarious ends, the Marxicrats, as I believe we should now call them, wouldn't stand a chance.

  4. ATTENTION PLEASE!!! Am so glad expressing my profound gratitude to a man that is so concerned about other people's well being. I was suffering from (HERPES SIMPLEX VIRUS TYPE II) over 2years, i have spent thousands of dollars in buying expensive drugs and visiting several hospitals in different countries, i was really in selvage pain "until" one glorious morning, i read about Dr. Kham on the internet on how he had helped and cured so many people suffering from HERPES 1$2, HPV, CANCER, HIV/AIDS, ALZHEIMER, FIBROID, ENLARGED PROSTATE and HEART DISEASE ETC. So I contacted him through this Email: dr.khamcaregiver@gmail.com   and i shared my problems with him, he gave me the healing procedure and i followed them. Two weeks later after I received and used his product, he told me to go for a medical test, behold the result was negative, now am HERPES VIRUS free. I just want to use this platform to thank Dr. Kham for curing me from that deadly virus and also for exposing his herbal cure to the world at large, please you can as well contact him at his Email: dr.khamcaregiver@gmail.com (or) visit his website https://drkhamherbalhealingcenter.wordpress.com/  or https://drkhamcaregiver.wixsite.com/drkhamcaregiverherba  you can also visit his Whatsapp at +2348159922297 for solutions to your health problems...
