UPDATED BLUE AND WHITE CURTAINS AND DRAPERY FABRIC SOURCES

When I share any photos that show my blue and white curtains, I'm often asked for sources.  I made all of my drapery myself, so I don't have exact sources to share.  I have shared fabric names and similar ready made drapery options in the past, several years ago I wrote a post sharing all of the information.   However, availability has changed since then and I wanted to update that post to be able to share some current sources.  So, here's my updated blue and white curtains source guide!  I'll start by saying that most of the fabric I used seems to have since been discontinued, or difficult to find in a web search.  If you have access to decorator fabric warehouses these exact prints might still be found in those or local shops.  I'll share the fabric info. again so it's accessible if you're searching and I've included some similar fabrics that are available online below.   The fabric I used in the Living Room and Breakfast Nook is a Vern Yip......

2024 CHRISTMAS HOME TOUR || DINING ROOM AND CHRISTMAS TABLESCAPE

It's the craziest  most wonderful time of the year... right??? Amidst all of the hustle and bustle I hope you are having some moments here and there to slow down and take in the wonders and small delights of the season.  Today I'm happy to be sharing this year's Christmas Dining Room and Christmas tablescape with you.  As usual, there's no lack of color or pattern!   I love adding pink poinsettias to my Christmas table, I somehow missed the medium size that I like this year and could only find one, so I filled up the rest of the center with loads of tabletop trees- I made the green ones and a friend was giving away the gold ones- love! The others are a variety that I've collected over the years.   I always add some ornaments to the teacups inside my China Cabinet, but this year I decked out the top, too!  The large "bows" on the brass ginger jars are more of the satin table runners (I bunch them up just like a ribbon bow and tie the middle with a ......

2023 CHRISTMAS HOME TOUR || DINING ROOM

Hello friends, welcome in to my Christmas Dining Room today!  I'm excited to share Part 2 of my Christmas home with you, click here for  Part 1  and  Part 3  if you missed them.  I still have quite a variety of colors, but this year I'm highlighting pink and green in a few spaces more prominently, but red is still strong in the mix as an accent color too.  We'll get to the table in a moment, but if you follow me on Instagram you might have seen that a little white back I snagged a pair of the elusive giant nutcrackers that flew off the shelves (after searching availability in neighboring towns where I could do a pick up then a morning road trip to round them up!). I wasn't sure what I was going to do with them at the time but knew they would find a home. And they did!  I love them in this spot flanking the china cabinet.  I didn't worry about any of the artwork behind them, just set them in front of what was there.  I've seen seve......

2022 CHRISTMAS HOME TOUR | DINING ROOM AND BREAKFAST NOOK

Happy Friday, I can't believe we're just 9 days away from Christmas!  I'm so excited to share more of my Christmas home tour with you today, I hope you enjoy this peek at the Dining Room and Breakfast Nook.   I wanted my decorations to have a collected, vintage feel to them this year with some plaid in the mix too! I parted from  my super bold hot pink that I've used for the past few years and focused on more traditional red and green this year, but with a softer pink and plenty of other colors still in the mix as well. I gathered up a variety of trees and arranged them for a centerpiece layered on a table runner and strip of wrapping paper... my favorite trick to bulk up a runner or just add some color and pattern.  And an added bonus, clean up is a breeze! You all might remember the collection of houses I thrifted a few years ago and sprayed them a variety of colors, I just pulled a few of the red ones out to use this time.  I used mercury glass candles h......
