Setting the Chinoiserie Table by Perch

I of course love the blue and white foo dogs, the blanc de Chine lady, and the chic blue and white melamine plates I have posted on before and own myself, Thomas Paul's Hong Kong. Great inspiration from Perch New Orleans.

Harrison Howard and Pagoda Fabrics

This is the new cover of St Louis Seasons Magazine by the incredibly talented artist Harrison Howard. I love it. I was recently contacted by a reader in Australia wanting to recreate this look. She and her interior designer have been in search of a blue and white pagoda fabric for the cushions in the pool house. Here were my suggestions to her. My top choice was one of the Quadrille/China Seas fabrics, as they are available in Suncloth which is perfect for this application.

A Pagoda Bench-High/Low

I found this great little Chinoiserie pagoda bench at The Source Collection with a not so little price tag of $1,525. What about taking one of our favorite JCPenney benches at $99.99 or a flea market or eBay find, or perhaps something you already have that could use a makeover? This JCPenney bench might also work well. Then cover the cushion with one of these wonderful pagoda fabrics by Thomas Paul or Michael Devine. If you have or find a bench that can take ferrules (the metal feet), here is an excellent source for them.
