Bullion fringe reminds me of that old nursery rhyme about the little girl who had a little curl right in the middle of her forehead. (Click here if you're not familiar with it.)

ReplyDeleteSo very clever Jennifer, and I can't get enough of the de la Renta bedroom!
ReplyDeleteLove this.
ReplyDeleteThe de la Renta bedroom sent sighs to you from Kansas. Sooooooo beautiful. And Peak, hats off to you for posting photo credits for each pic. Really love that part.
ReplyDeleteVery funny..and so true!
ReplyDeleteThis post is crying out for a picture of the "horrid."
ReplyDeleteOh yes, I always like this kind of fringe ... it also makes fantastic, weighty tassels to use as curtain tiebacks or on door knobs to add a little touch of fringe!
ReplyDeleteNice pictures!I love the Caroline Herrera home and the Miles Redd interior!

A line from one of my favorite childhood books! Love it! Love the bullion story too. It is amazing how it softens the lines of the piece and the room! Love your musings! Another example can be found at http://hickorychair.com/product_additional_photos.aspx?url=395_29RM&PhotoID=3899
