Vintage Inspiration Friday # 66 Toile, Plaid and the Winners!

One concept has been going on in my head as I've started decorating

for Chistmas this year, and that is that I want to

do something different.

It's easy to get stuck in a rut each year, 

so I've been changing things up a bit.

This is a peek at what I'm doing in the Dining Room.

You all know how I love plaid,

but usually I've corralled it in the Sunroom.

This year I ran with it for the Dining Room too.

But I love me some red toile,

so that's also part of the fun this year.

and of course, add a little of this on the tree...

mix it all together, and you get some of this...

more coming on the Dining Room soon...
