the stroke of midnight
bonjour! it’s a cinderella night pour moi, (11:55 right now) i’m a pumpkin at midnight on the dot.
it seems like it’s always the dead of night before i get to blog if even then. i miss you guys and want to blog surf more than anything. but it’s time to close up for the day.
you may know i’ve been adding to my line with bloggers’ works of art, and today have been adding stuff to the boutique. over the past day or so these all went up. i was thrilled to discover and collaborate with jenny and lauren of french market.
they create everything by hand
with such loving care. this is hand stamped
and i fell in love with their photography
and simplicity
everything they do is pretty
they’re just so clever!
and talented. thanks ladies for jumping in, we’re going to have fun!
i fell into a wonderland with these two muses and can’t resist their charms!
girls after my own heart. if you have a shop you can sell their items too!
on an other note, this just came in from my girl delphine groult who makes the most beautiful furniture (also by hand), in the french tradition. the finishes are particularly stunning and silky smooth.
her work is impeccable and i was thrilled to get a little eye candy before bed.
love that stool, del!
and of course this can be done in any color.
boy i could go on! renee, thank you for the new sets of cards!
noel’s books are collectors items!
and the beds! i almost forgot the beds!
last but not least is photography by mandy of alaparisienne.
hmm i didn’t realize how much went up til seeing it all together.
it’s all available in the boutique.
and now, tea and a book… sweet dreams! it’s exactly 12:00!

Love, love, loved all the photos you put up.
Makes me crave Paris, and I just got back in September.
I have your book Paris Apartment, sitting on a side table in my family room, and some girlfriends were over the other day, and they poured over it. They really love it!
