Maryland Estate Toile Room
This guest bedroom and bath was one of many which was to convey the delight and nostalgia of a bed and breakfast. This particular toile pattern (by Thibaut) was particularly difficult to find. Most toile has a light background whereas this one is distinct having a darker, yet wonderfully bright blue background with a rich white pattern. Incorporating pieces that her clients already have and love, the client's old headboard was refinished so that the rich golden tone would contrast the blue fabric. Her Dresdyn statuary was adapted into bedside lamps. Jess's favorite bathroom trick is to use traditional area rugs in lieu of bath rugs. They make bathrooms feel more like a room, add pattern and texture, and are very resilient.
