Paisley
Date added: 07/06/2010

It is believed that modern day paisley has been derived from Persia and India. In Persia the design is referred to as Boteh and is a design that is the convergences of stylized floral spray and the cypress tree. During the rule of the Qajar dynasty in Iran this pattern became very popular, Paisl...ey shawls were often given as dowry or used for ceremonial occasions and to decorate royal regalia.

Paisley was first introduced to into the western culture in the 17th century via the East India Trading Company and quickly became very popular. The western term for this design- paisley- is derived from the town of Paisley in Scotland who quickly became the foremost producers of paisley shawls.

Today in the US paisley is most commonly associated with the 1960s and free-spirits. However after learning the history of paisley I have reconsidered what it stands for to me. Now I when I think paisley I think of exotic lands in the middle east and richness. Paisleys in deep rich colors like red will make the pattern seem infinitely more exotic and rich!

The word toile is actually an old French word that meant “linen fabric” or “canvas”, it entered the English vernacular in the 16th century as a word meaning painted on cloth, as all imported toile from France had patterns or paintings printed on them. The traditional scenes of toile are still present today even, patterns are still of intricate scenes of the county side, pastures, and floral arrangements. Most often these designs are printed in a single color (most commonly black, blue, red and green) on an off white background. This style is most commonly associated with bed furnishings, upholstery and drapery but can be used for many other decorations such as on clothing and wallpaper.

Spring
Date added: 05/07/2010

Spring has sprung and with it sunshine has come! Even if the sun hasn’t started to shine in your hometown that doesn’t mean that you can’t enjoy the warmth of its spring time rays in your own home. Adding the color yellow to any room in your house will instantly warm you up. Like sunshine the color yellow radiates warmth and light!

The color yellow is also cheery and energetic. However, beware that yellow can be an overwhelming color if it is used in excess. A comforter with an energetic pattern or with other cheery analogous colors like pinks and bright greens can instantly brighten your mood and won’t overwhelm the room.

In some cultures yellow is even associated with intellect, spiritual wellness, royalty and wealth. So if you weren’t already sold on the color maybe some of its cultural signatures can persuade you!
