Today I just want to share some
Fabulous French Finds
That I just couldn't resist purchasing...
Not only are the French but Vintage too...:)
Not only are the French but Vintage too...:)
My biggest dilemma is what to show you first....:)
Now you know I just love all things feathered...
And when I found this stunning vintage figurine....
I was a totally smitten...
Then to my immense delight discovered there was a set of 3....
Well it just wouldn't be nice to split this gorgeous set would it???
Scrolling thru this Fabulous French Shop
I found more pieces that were just begging to make
Australia their new home...
Actually their new "Mum"... me....
Just couldn't resist them....
Like this WA Rogers Silver Stand and Darling Cloche....
Yes I have a thing for Cloche too.....
And this beautiful silver bowl....
Also by WA Rogers... So ornate and chic too...
This absolutely divine letter stand...
However I don't think I will use it for today's mail
.... as that is often just bills....:(
But instead use it for pretty vintage papers or ephemera
Or perhaps a cabinet card ???
Or perhaps a cabinet card ???
What do you think???
And last but definitely not least.....
This Gorgeous French Hand Towel holder
I love those embroidered linen guest towels from days gone bye
I have never been quite sure how to display them... so I think this will be just perfect!
Now one of the best parts about finding this little french store is the
Gorgeous Owner is happy to look and find me extra little things I might be looking for......
Hmmmm I wonder how much it is to ship a whole container from France to Australia??? LOL!
So you are probably wondering what INSPIRED these purchases???
Apart from the fact they will be the start of a gorgeous vignette...

I have the Wall.... and the Perfect Antique Table,
And even an old Footstool I picked up junking..
That is just waiting to be recovered.....
It wont be exactly like the image.. as it is a bit too cluttered for me...
But definitely Inspired By It.... :)
Add that to the Interior Renovation that is about to happen here...
Yep... a little bit French, a little bit Shabby.... a little Eclectic..
So I thought they would be perfect accessories......
It's the little things that that help make a renovation a home.....
By now you will know that I just love to share
