Taking a photo of the antique toilet in our guest house ( owned by William Wordsworth) , I remembered that the wallpaper was a William Morris design.
William Morris embraced the Paisley design in his Orientalism in the late 19th century. That's when Paisley became a little more Bohemian, and probably is the link to the 1960s hippy love for Paisley.

Here's the photo that inspired this blog today.
The antique Toilet at White Moss House, Grasmere |
Why was I taking a photo of our Twyford's Original Sultan? That's another story.......
Men! How about this great Paisley retro shirt? Really, it's the designer trend for 2012- honest!
