Chintz c.1960

About 10 days ago...I did a 'road trip' with several friends from Bozeman to the Charles M Bair museum in Martinsdale, MT. There is new (July 2011) state-of-the-art museum space ( 7,000+ sq feet) to house the art work collection....including Charlie Russel, Edouard Cortes and Edward S Curtiss (photographer) as well as Native American items.

The house tour was fascinating...with interiors in a favorite color.... RED. Note toiles and chintz.

Guest Room at the Bair family home

The guest room was added in the  1960s...complete with drapery and chair coverings in Chintz of the period!

I would highly recommend a visit...open daily till Labor Day...and Wed/Sun through October.
