I LOVE stripes. Thanks for the tips.
I'm in a "stripe" phase at the moment myself, with striped rugs everywhere!
I love that blue striped slipcovered chair with the cute fish pillow!

What a wonderful array of stripes. I really want to paint a wall with a matching furniture piece now...I never thought that it could look SO cool.
Thanks for sharing!
Love stripes! Have never thought about incorporating them into decorating, think I just might now. Thanks for the tips! :)
Hi Layla, have you ever found a folding canvas chair like the one in image #1, I love it and would like to buy one. just wondering, thanks! Rachel -Dd
I have always loved stripes. Right now I'm in love with anything made from ticking.
Yippee!
I am with you all.
Love stripes, ticking and painted furniture with stripes.
I also for an inexpensive way to keep changing things up take my husbands old stripe shirts and make porch swing pillows with them. I don't have a machine so it's usually iron on or pinned like a present.( a girls gotta do what a girls gotta do..hehe)
Love all the pics Layla, I just can't quite figure out how you have the time to do some many things in one day, especially with the consultations. Maybe it's the cereal? Have a fun day. geri.
I could look at your reading/writing nook a million times and never grow tired of it.

thanks for the post, Layla! I love stripes, too:) Favorite stripes in my house are my black/white striped, scalloped valances in my 'paper cafe' office:)
Hey Rachel!
That photo belongs to Sarah, at A Beach Cottage. Swing by her blog and I'm sure she'll tell you where she got it! :-)

I love stripes too.....I found four pillow cushions on clearance at Pottery Barn this fall for my outdoor furniture. I was so happy for that find : ) Great tip by the way on your reading room stripes! I just love that room : )
Thanks for sharing!
I LOVE stripes...especially when mixed with burlap and black and white damask or toile! After seeing this post I'm seriously thinking about using fabric paint to paint stripes on my all white Ikea Ektorp Ottoman. Thanks for the ideas!
Hey, love the stripes. I like ticking more than any other striped fabric..........just something about it in a room with painted furniture and lots of white. :) have a great day!
Stripes=perfection.

nice pics! i'm obsessed with blue & white striped fabrics of all kinds..it's a timeless look.
thanks for the inspiration.
Those were all beautiful pictures. You've inspired me to definitely bring some stripes into my space. THanks!
Love all the decorating ideas to be had from those pics. I love all the stripes and look forward to the day when I can #1 Keep things clean for more than 10 minutes, and #2 use more creams and nuetrals in my decorating (bad idea w/ jelly print hands). Thanks for sharing.
I too hav a thing for stripes. I am a decorative painter and love using very rough dry brushed stripes for distressed furniture. I just finished an old "La Petite Maison" sign with STRIPES! Yes!
Oh, and I just put a pic of it on my blog!

Stripes are my go to pattern. I am always drawn to stripes, especially in black and white, You should see my inspiration file on stripes, it goes on forever. I have a post already to go next week on this very subject. A subject near and dear to my heart. Loved all of your images, in fact your reading nook is one picture that is in my file. I have a link to your blog for that picture. Love everything you do and even more than what you do, I love the spirit in which you do it. Kathysue
Hi Layla, those soaps have a beautiful feel, they would go perfectly with my cottage bathroom! :)
