So I had to join Pretty Organized Palace's Toile Party today! Be sure to check out the other participants if you love toile!
Most of my regular readers know that I'm pretty crazy about toile (and transferware). My favorite is red toile because....well, red is my favorite color! I also love white so my living room is mainly red and white...
My favorite thrift store makeover!
Discontinued red and gold curtains from JC Penney
My empty china cabinet (you don't see that often)! The back is red and cream toile fabric that I wrapped around cardboard.
Decorated for spring.
My very favorite red toile pillows - they're reversible the back is red gingham.
Black & white toile lamp.
These chairs and the table used to be pine.
I added some red gingham and pom pom fringe to these Waverly curtains.
These are my kitchen curtains. They're a fun combination of black and cream toile, polka dots and kiwi green trim and material (to match my walls).
My kitchen window seat.
My bedroom walls are robin's egg blue and I have black and cream toile bedding and curtains.
Duvet
A brown and blue toile pillow in my bedroom.
As you can see, I really do love toile and have for a long, long, long time! I have a few other toile things but these are the major ones. I hope you enjoyed seeing them!
I'll be back at the end of the week with a tutorial on how to make a raised bed for your veggies.

It's all so beautiful! I love the red and white toile and wish I had it in my house. I'll have to get some! :-)
I love Toile also. I have it in my masterbed room ( black) and my office/scraproom ( red).
Your house is so pretty. Thanks for letting us see in.
What a cute house. We just added toile to our living room and my daughter's room. I must say. I'M ADDICTED! Thank for sharing all your pretty spaces.
Hi Manuela,
Your decorating is lovely. My favourite is red and white too with black and cream coming in at a close second. Have a wonderful day.
Blessings,
Sandi
Did you make those kitchen curtains? I dig them.
You DO love toile! Love the scalloped window treatment. Great site with lots of great ideas. And thanks for your comment about my thrift store book-end redo. I look forward to following your blog for LOTS of new ideas.
Hi, my toile loving friend! You really have a lot of it & it looks great in your home.
So glad you did a tour of the Ballards outlet, so much fun to browse thru there. I haven't been in ages, but yes I agree with you, it's still overpriced.
You did a fantastic job bringing everything together -- I think it's your paint choices that do the trick!
I really love all you did!
Hi toile friend of mine! I just posted my toile post too! You and I have so much in common... Your home is just beautiful!
Hugs,
Penny
WOW!!! You have a lot of toile! I, too, am a toile lover!!! Everything is just beautiful! :)
Can you ever imagine a day when your love for toile will fade? I can't! Long live toile! (My niece adores it, too. I really like it as well, but have none. Wonder what I could start with...a pillow perhaps.) Loved seeing all your pictures!
I thought I loved toile until I saw this post! You are a maniac about toile!
I love that red and white toile. Everything is so cute. I just want to come look around!
Hi Manuela, you and Penny both share the love of Toile. It is really beautiful, I like the b/w but also the r/w. Thx for sharing busy lady, it is always fun at your blog. Take care.
Wow, someone with maybe more toile than I have! I love the black and green! I really love the red toile in the china hutch. I should do that to highlight my milk glass collection.

I don't think I've ever seen blue/brown toile before--that is GORGEOUS!
I like the way you often pair your transferware with toiles--always so pleasing!
Love all the toile!! I love seeing how everyone uses it in their decor.
I really love your toile filled home. Just beautiful! You are very talented as far as making your home a comfortable and beautiful place to be.
I love your toile. I have the same black and cream drapes in my kitchen and I am considering adding fabric and fringe to the top, too!

Hello, I've been watchin your blog for a little while now. My favorite color is red also. I like the way you've decorated, very pretty. I get idea's from others like you on how to decorate my home....thank you....take care, Iris
So beautiful, fresh and inviting, Manuela! Love all the touches of toile throughout your pretty home. Red is one of my favorite colors too, but I find the black & white toile paired with apple green eXceptionally striking!
I think you must love toile as much as I do. I like the way you used in it in the back of your china hutch. I have red and white toile in my dining room. I hope you'll stop by and check out my toile goodies.
You are truly the toile QUEEN Manuela! Lovely, lovely,lovely.
Warmly,
Tracey

I just love your bedroom. I've been thinking about a blue bedroom and the toile makes it look just right!
Oh Manuela, it all looks beautiful. I love it. I love Toile and you have outdone yourself with the decorating touches! All we need now is a car decorated with Toile seats! Oooh lala!

I love the toile in your home! I am going to use some of it for my decorating projects. I never thought I would love toile as I do now. I guess I thought it was too old fashioned looking when I was younger. :)
Hi Manuela~
You know I love toile. I knew you loved toile. But I did not remember how much you love toile!
This was great fun to see your lovely pictures.
Donna
I got to see a few things I never seen. Love the polka dots with the toile! I just knew you would love joining this wonderful toile day!
Happy Toile! I do hope you can find the time to join my Birthday Tea Party! I love to see a toile one, no cooking just your love toile and white ironstone. I am hooked on both! Bringing out my 20 Plus yards of toile soon!
Oh this must be what toile heaven looks like, you have a gorgeous home!!

Have a wonderful day, Jannet
