If you follow me on Facebook or Instagram, you've seen my images of France.
I am completely smitten.
I'll be sharing more about our trip in the weeks to come but in the meantime, I've added a few touches that evoke a French feeling.
ISO - If you know where I can get croissants that don't taste like wallpaper paste, please let me know.
Instead of pulling out the fall decor, I was rounding up anything that had a French connection.
It's nerdy - I know, but that's how I roll.
I remembered that Bill's grandmother took a grand tour during the 1930s.
She got this darling handkerchief to commemorate her travels.
I dug it out of the family trunk of cr@p.
We got the Eiffel Tower around the corner from 31 Rue Cambon. It was only 4 Euros.
I love this!
I took the picture of the Eiffel Tower. It's been printed on regular copy paper.
It's my secret for vintage looking prints. You know I love vintage.
The lavender bundle came from a local boutique mall.
The basket surrounding the candle gives it a French feel.
I always wondered who bought the faux cheese and bread that they sell at Hobby Lobby.
Now I know.
I added a real croissant from Tom Thumb. (It tastes slightly better than wallpaper paste).
When I went back after the photo shoot to get it and wrap it up, it was gone.
Someone else like likes them, just FYI.
I love the faux it reminds me of our visits to brasseries and cafés.
Everything in France seems more enchanting.
I brought home a darling packet of hot chocolate. (I'm not sure if that was allowed but...)
Look at this packaging.
The Pillsbury Crescent Rounds were tasty but a little too greasy.
Compare the French hot chocolate to my American version.
Seriously! Adorable!
The copper and porcelain mug was a gift from Bill from William's Sonoma.
Come back on Tuesday to see more copper in my home tour.
Finally, I picked up this sweet trinket box when I went to get the lavender.
It captures the whimsicality of France to perfection.
J'aime la France!
That is about it, my friends.
