The other day at my coffee clatch one of
my girlfriends asked me if I wanted
to go with her to Paris this Fall
on a flea market find!
Uh...let me think....YES!!!
oh wait...
(two kids in college and living in a fixer...)
thoughts spun around in my head like:
*can I hurry up and win the lottery?
*can I go in myself and close that deal
on my hubby's new account?
*can I sell off the contents of
my whole entire studio by then??
Because let's face it, when you get to Paris
my whole entire studio by then??
Because let's face it, when you get to Paris
and start hitting those vintage shops and flea markets....
You're going to want $$$$ to spend!
But.....I can dream and create in the meantime
so here are a few musings I created....
I made this pillow slip from a linen shirt I found in a thrift store
and finished off the end with this ribbon tie.
This pillow is made from an old, old lace tablecloth.
The cloth panel is embellished with little vintage treasures.
The pillow slips into the end.
And of course what says more "French" than toile!
I made these lavender sachet pillows measuring 9x9 inches
Thank you for dreamin' of Paris
with me
for a few minutes...
Have a great day full of new surprises!
