When I placed all of my vintage and pink ornaments on the dining table it screamed for more pink in the room! So I moved the pink
toile to the dining room and here they are. What do you think?
I am probably committing a major decorating faux pas
by mixing fabrics but I think the giraffe fabric on the bench adds a sense of fun and whimsey, yes?
I'm linking up with Coastal Charm's Nifty Thrifty Tuesday!
Gabby and Gizzy say hi!

Sissie the panels look gorgeous and I DO like them with the giraffe print fabric on the bench! I think it really makes a statement! Simply lovely, as is your beautiful dining room! ~Hugs, Patti
Hi Sissie :) I really love the Pink Toile panels in your Dining room, and no, you are NOT commiting a faux paux ~ actually, I think it really looks good together, not to mention that there is some soft shades of brown in the toile. When you use different patterns and textures, it all works well if they all carry some of, or all of, the same colors, whether you use plaids, stripes, florals, etc... so Sissie, from what I can see of the picture, you did a very good job!!
Warmest hugs, Brenda
You know Sweetie I love the look of a few patterns in a room and yours looks lovely. I adore the pattern in your toile, so soft and pretty. Lord knows I'm not a beige person but there are many that love it. Honoring our differences makes life fun doesn't it? Just do what makes YOU happy. I must also say that your diningroom table is stunning. I love all those spindles going on in the center.

Make your rules about mixing and matching....you've done it beautifully!!!!
How rich looking! Just beautiful Sissie!
Sissie it looks gorgeous to me. I think your mix and match taste is impeccable! Hi Gizzy and Gabby!
Oh, Sissie girl, you have me drooling! I am over the top in love with your pink toile panels! Wish I could find that fabric here! I think your giraffe and toile look fabulous together! I love your decorating style! Yummy!

Sissie, that room just could not get any prettier. Those toile panels are the icing on the cake. You do know that animal print counts as a neutral and goes with anything don't you? The toile and that animal print on the bench are perfect together!!
Oh wooooow Sissie, those are to die for!!!! And I don't think you could ever commit a fabric faux paux, you have too much of an eye for beauty:)
Hi Sissie,
Your curtains are gorgeous! Love the fabric and I think it looks great with the animal print. You have a great decorating eye!
I can't find a link to email you....could you email me and I'll respond with my address for the fabulous giveaway I won (again...so excited)
Thanks,
Jane
I love the toile panels! And I think they look great with the bench.

I love a little bit of animal print in a room, Sissie! I think the toile panels looks great in your dining room. It's nice to mix things up a bit and sometimes the outcome is even better than you thought. What a beautiful fabric.
Your toile curtains are tres magnifique, Sissie! I adore all things toile, and these are gorgeous! And a touch of whimsy is a good thing for any room! Those kitties sure our cute, looks like they may be looking to get into some mischief,though!
Hello Sissy,

Sissie, that room is a masterpiece! It is beautiful. I love the prints together. It is gorgeous and fun. Great captions with your kitty photos.
The mixture of fabrics make it look like a decorator did it! I have never been able to find pink toile, where did you get it? It is gorgeous!

Sissie -
It looks gorgeous!! I LOVE the pink panels with the giraffe print. I have a leopard print rug in my kitchen under my green vintage dresser/island.
Toni
Love the drapes and the giraffe...
Getting ready to make a dining room out of a guest bedroom...Pink will definately be in there!
Merry christmas girl!

Sissie~ Smashing!!
Oh no, Sissie! They are perfect together! Looks like you're going to have to replace the curtains in the bedroom now! Cause you just have to leave these in your dining room now! I love toile in every color imaginable. Don't you?
I love the captions that you wrote on the photos of your babies. Your babies are adorable.
Merry Christmas,
Sonya
OH my Gosh, I love, adore and drool over the panels. I am SO "in love" with toile, but can't get it here duh :(
Sissie, it is a very beautifull room, with the toile curtains,-and the pillows on the giraffe makes all look so lovely together, dear-GORGEUS
Hugs, Dorthe
Glam!!!!!!!!! And no faux pas with the giraffe print. Even the mucky mucks on TV say that animal prints go with anything. They are the new black.
Sissie, I guess we are sisters separated at birth! I just put up pink silk panels in my living room that I had in storage because I thought my room needed a little something....I'll be posting on it today! Your toile panels are perfection in that room and one of my sayings is "you can always add a little leopard...." I would amend that to say giraffe as well!
I'm usually perfectly happy to see patterns mixed. Those toile curtains are gorgeous, Sissie.

Wow! Beautiful in the dining room and the giraffe doesn't seem to mind a bit! Your bloggy is sooooo pretty! Hope your week before Christmas is filled with JOY!
Hi Sissie girl! Beautiful post as always. Your room is spectacular! I don't see any problems with the fabric! It is wonderful...the whole room is. Hope your Holidays are wonderful.
blessings,
Debbie
The drapes just made the room complete....oh so very pretty
The drape fabric is really gorgeous, I love it! It looks fabulous in the room and goes so well with the rest of your beautiful things.
G'morn, Sissie ~ Faux pas my foot! It is FABULOUS! I'd love those curtains in my dining room. You have such an elegant touch with everything you do, my friend.
Merry Christmas hugs, my friend ~
