It works well with a larger print. <br />Your piano shawls are wonderful. I am the happy owner of one that I keep draped over the corner of my china cabinet in the diningroom. It softens the edges and adds color. As if I need more in the diningroom but I am a lover of color. You can see it here:<br /><br />http://joyouslylivinglife.blogspot.com/2009/09/diningroom-redo.html<br /><br />Love visiting your blog and am loving the Tuscan Style magazine you are featured in.

Love your collection! I have a small collection of paisley shawls (about twelve or so) that I have collected over the years. Most are in excellent condition (or have minor damage), and all are old except one. I don't plan to sell them ever. As you said, they can be pretty expensive. I guess I acquired mine during a period when they were not so much in style (or I was just in the right place at the right time), because I did not pay more than about $250 for any one of them.

I was thrilled when I opened my new Pottery Barn catalog and saw they were using a pattern very similar to the one I had bought. I had a purple paisley dress in high school (late 60's early 70'2) that was my favorite dress of all time. I don't know whatever happened to it (it certainly wouldn't fit me now) but I wish I had it. I'm sure I could find SOMETHING to do with it! Beautiful post.

I love paisleys and have collected them for decades. Some old, some new. A few years ago, I reupholstered a 19th century folding screen with beveled glass top with a beautiful Scalmandre paisley. It is in a corner of my bedroom and I just love it. I have long admired the shawl you used in your tablescape and have been lusting after the pillows Pottery Barn currently has. I may have to get them...not my fault. <br />All the best...VictoriaVictoriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06791296934306530073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5763730258323026627.post-29710397475913210872012-02-15T08:05:08.648-08:002012-02-15T08:05:08.648-08:00Yes, I like Paisley and yours are beautiful.
