greige and gold in France...


One glimpse at this beautiful French home and I was smitten.  A perfectly wonderful mix of old and older makes it so special.    The mirrors and stone alone are just the right amount of sparkle and rough texture.  The result is a casual luxe that we dream about.

greige shops France...


As our sale draws near I have been going through all of the photos from our trip and falling in love with the pieces that we shopped for while we were in France.  It was a lot of work and I cannot wait to share the primped up version with you in a few days.  We found so many beautiful vintage pieces it is going to be hard to part with them!  This is just a little peek at the treasure.

Thank you again to Sharon at My French Country Home for a wonderful trip!

Restored beauty in Provence


Happy Thursday!  It is almost the weekend again and there is so much to do in these last days of summer!  I am dreaming that we are on holiday in this beautiful part of France but I will just have to settle for the inspiration of the pictures.

brocante shopping in Normandie...

I know I have been promising to share more of our shopping adventures in France... so here we go.  We shopped in Paris for the first part of the week and then came to shop with Sharon from My French Country Home in Normandie.  It was a whirl wind visit once again with many hours spent shopping and loading and unloading of goodies..  This was one of our fist stops, I will be sharing more over the next few weeks leading up to our sale in September.  

Now that our container has arrived and we have begun to sort and clean things it has become a reality and we have set the date for our sale which will include many of the pieces we found while in France as well as some additional treasures from here and there.

Normandie weather was a little grumpy while we were there with rain almost everyday at some point.
But the fields were beautiful and there was yellow everywhere we went.

This sweet little shop we visited the first afternoon after arriving from Paris.  She had a wonderful chicken farm out back that I was dying over!  Her shop was full of sweet whimsical little creatures and beautiful treasure, as well as a little tea shop in the back.  We warmed up with tea and treats before setting off to our next destination.
 




These furniture pieces were so cool.  They are vintage pieces re-purposed for outdoor use.   Looking back I wish I had bought a few.




 I did pick up this sweet little set, cannot wait to unwrap it!

Astier de Villatte, Paris

My deep love for Astier de Villatte is no secret as I have professed it many times..  whenever I am in Paris I visit the store on Rue St. Honore.  It is so dreamy and so simple at the same time.  The stacks and stacks of dishes call my name.  I buy a couple of pieces each time I travel there and it can be really hard to select just the right things.  Sometimes I have been known to visit more than once in a trip.  They had some great new pieces, new collaborations with various artists and many of the classics that I have come to adore.

It is simply amazing and one of the highlights of my trip everytime! 

 Enjoy...
