TOILE, shown above

A classic blue and white toile wallpaper adds an unexpected touch of European sophistication to a cottage-style bathroom in rural Quebec.

• Toile patterns lend a sense of movement to a room, and they have a classic look you'll never tire of.

• Keep it simple – pairing the busy toile with streamlined beadboard wainscotting means you're not overwhelmed by the pattern.

• Toile has a lovely narrative quality all on its own, so no additional artwork is needed on the walls.

• This blue and white pattern creates a fun backdrop and a striking foil for inexpensive all-white accessories.

• Pretty feminine patterns perfectly complement the warm patina of rustic pine floorboards.
