Claudia's book reintroduced
Old Hollywood & French Glamour.
She continues to fly across our Sky's
on her magic carpet to Paris to keep
this classic beautiful look
Alive~
{Sometimes if you look up at the mOOn during the night
you might see her twinkling by...look close
you may mistake her for a star or dewdrop}~

This Mademoiselle
has a way of waving her wand to create
a French Boudoir for anyone who shuts
her eyes & wishes three times~

Fairies and lots of them
are busy making her nest
&
uncovering found treasures
for you~


And preparing a beautiful celebration
for her arrival~

There will be special treats & surprises
everywhere you look~


Lucy's House

One of my very Best Friends in this world,
Lucy from
Paris Flea Market
sells her magical old French relics & chandeliers at
Vignettes~
It will also be her Grand Opening of
French Tent Brocante
in the back!!!


This is My house
{way back in the day...it has changed completely}
that Claudia inspired,

she photographed it when she came to visit
me.
Also some of my
favorite pieces I purchased from
Lucy are in this picture~

I can't wait to see you All there!!!

XOXO's

  2. Oh my gosh, I am filled with utter delight..how I wish I lived in such a wonderful atmosphere as this one..it would certainly take away the bit of blues I've been having over the weather (and the inevitability of things in life)
    Thank you for this inspiration.

    Take care!

  7. I can't believe this! I was supposed to be in LA that week end to visit my son in College. I would have loved to come! Just had to cancel the visit as I have too much on my plate before leaving for my 3 weeks trekking trip.
    Any chance there will be a book tour in New York?
    All best and success for what promises to be a fun afternoon.

    Sorry I haven't been by for a while.
    I've missed you...
    Oh how I wish I could come to this wonderful event! I too remember being inspired by Claudia's book many years ago. I wanted to paint a koi pond in my entry! What a party it's going to be!! Have the best time with all your friends and please take lots of pictures to share with all of us.
    Tons of love to you my friend,
    Terri

  11. How beautiful! You girls are fierce with elegance and design. So much inspiration in each photograph. Wish I could be there for the book signing! What fun that will be. I will need to just go to my favorite bookstore and enjoy every page as I sip a cup of warm coffee and dream awhile! Wonderful work! blessings

  19. Oh Janet,
    I only wish that I could be there. Living in the same country would be a help !! I hope that it all goes well.
    Your home looks so beutiful. It is so light. My house, being Victorian, is quite dark in parts, so I am always a little envious of homes with so much light.
    Have a fun time. XXXX
