I'm Susan — devout Francophile, mother of twins, writer, creative director, and aspiring author. I've been sharing my life here since 2010...thanks for reading!
Please pinch me, because our home is being "sneak peeked" on Design*Sponge today!!! Most of our little cottage, including our twin nursery, is being revealed there! It is such an honor to be included…many thanks to Grace, Amy, and Anne. A huge MERCI to Courtney Apple, who took all the gorgeous photographs. I do hope you will check it out and leave a comment there…merci mon amies!
*for those who are linking over from D*S…welcome!*
My french-infused baby shower was a success, and a beautiful, memorable day. I got to share it with such lovely ladies…I owe them a huge MERCI for helping to make it so special. It turned out to be a rainy, cozy day…the perfect conditions for a tea party, right?! We dined on Ladurée macarons and tea to the sounds of Piaf, Bruni, and Gainsbourg. I was showered with such thoughtful gifts for les bébés…vintage books, french clothing, and some good old fashioned staples. There are so many people I want to thank for making my day so amazing…but mostly my friends Stephanie, Angie & Tim, and my sweet hubby, whose help was priceless. I’m a very lucky woman. Stay tuned…I’ll be sharing our photobooth shots next!

This weekend is busy with overnight guests, party setup and primping for…my baby shower! My sweet friend Stephanie is hosting, but she has allowed me to do all the planning and styling, which is such a gift for me! This is just a glimpse of the decor, but I will be sharing photos of the big day next week. After my wedding, this is the most exciting event I have planned and looked forward to! Bon weekend!
I forgot to share my new business cards with you…I am smitten with them! The wonderfully creative ladies of Curious & Co. did it again…they really get my style. Letterpress is truly an obsession of mine, as well as beautiful fonts and anything gold. Needless to say, I’m a pretty happy client.
