I am smitten with the illustrated decals and shop of Shanna Murray…on my wish list!
We had such gorgeous (and unseasonable) weather this weekend! Although I’m quite the snow bunny, it’s hard to complain when the sun is shining, and the air is brisk yet mild enough to not need a heavy coat. We got some household stuff done, but tried to get outside as much as possible. We took a country drive and ended up at a great antique store, discovering treasures…such as this giant chippendale chair! Billy just couldn’t resist demonstrating the scale…he is so much fun to shop with!
Today marks the start of the biannual sales in France, known as "les soldes". They are government mandated, and the French take them very seriously. Considering they wait all year for these amazing prices, I don't blame them! I was originally going to be in Paris during the winter sales, and was really looking forward to some deals. Alas, this francophile will have to live vicariously through the tales of my friends abroad..but I do that anyway, happily. Happy shopping….Vive les soldes!
In the event that Santa (aka mr. fleurishing, or anyone else who has the urge) needs gift ideas for moi, voila. Keep in mind this list runs the gamut from affordable to dreaming. Those who know me well won't be surprised…I've always had champagne taste (not always a champagne budget). Dream with me…
