The Tartan Topiary is supported by its viewers, thank you. A purchase using the link above will help in our efforts to continue our book reviews.
"With a focus on Schumacher's greatest contemporary patterns--everything from classic stripes and exuberant florals to edgy animal prints--this accessible and highly useful style guide is organized thematically by chapters such as "Sensual & Spare"; "Preppy"; "Ladylike"; "Exuberant"; and "Opulent," with each featuring a stunning selection of patterns along with inspiring interiors designed in the same spirit. To help readers better understand their style preferences, every chapter begins with a questionnaire, for example: "Are You an Acolyte of High Style?" "Do You Prefer a Midnight Supper to a Power Lunch?"; "Consider Jewel Tones Neutral?"; "Think Champagne Is Not Just for Special Occasions?"
Page after page after page of lavish imagery and pattern details are juxtaposed alongside beautiful interiors designed by such luminaries as Miles Redd, Tom Scheerer, Amanda Lindroth, Celerie Kemble, Veere Grenney, and Mark D. Sikes, to name a few, illustrating how Schumacher's iconic patterns can be integrated into a wide range of chic and stylish room designs. The texts provide insights and tips on how patterns can be used in your decor, along with guidance for deciding what style is best for you and your home.
Full of inspiring design ideas, as well as an unparalleled resource of prints and patterns, S Is for Style is a visual feast of interior design for all styles and tastes.

I love so many different things. My mother gifted both my sister and I with her good taste. Lucky for her my father was great at putting up wallpaper. She was ahead of her time. Beautiful inside and out. Appreciated Beautiful things. She bought what she could afford and taught us to do the same. Lucky for me my husband is also good at wallpapering.

Well “F” is for Fabulous! Thanks for sharing S is for Style! Love the bold look but scared to try! I like the idea of trying it out in a small powder room! Looking forward to next vlog 🤗

I could look at beautiful interiors for hours. When I go on a tour of homes, I prefer to go alone so as not to be rushed.😁

[@thetartantopiary]

I understand completely. I do that especially during Christmas open houses.

[@suskelleykelley7241]

Happy to hear I'm not alone in liking not to be rushed. I could be happy just staring at a page of interesting decor and at every detail

....Since the time your Channel was recommended to me , ( came up as a Recommendation) ....it has been such a " F is for Fabulous " at every Video watched... I was not a Subscriber during the time of some of the " Giveaways " but nonetheless have watched all the previous Videos ...such Inspiration. Such loveliness. Teatime and The Tartan Topiary.... = Time well spent,... an indulgence that gives back on many levels. Side note : my youngest daughter.... has the same name ( Dara) ...I rarely hear that name, so each time I do, I'm pleasantly surprised. ... That name has such a beautiful meaning. Thank you again for a wonderful walk through the " S is for Style Schumacher. "

[@thetartantopiary]

Thank you! What a kind comment. I appreciate you taking the time to let me know and thanks for watching.

[@conservativemovement]

I love your channel!

[@thetartantopiary]

Thank you so much!

Another Beautiful Book! I am so enjoying your channel! I was shocked to see, on your side table, the brass lion (what I think is a) bookend. I picked one, just one, up this very weekend at a church sale. So, I either have one of your pair, or you have one of mine. 😉. Is it a bookend? Do you know anything about it? I just picked it up because I liked it. Thank You!!

[@thetartantopiary]

That's great. The story behind this is pretty cool. The other bookend (that matches our lion) is a Unicorn. They were made in England and Scotland- the lion represents England, and the unicorn represents Scotland. I'm still looking for the unicorn. I'll let you know if I find one! Sounds like a good excuse to go to Scotland-

[@vintagewidow]

Thank You! I love when I have a story with an item I buy. And now I a reason to keep shopping….keep telling myself I need to stop due to the amount of “things” I already own.
