Past week-end in Avignon, Judea trees were blossoming in pink at the base of the antique walls of the citadelle.
Even the local hairdresser's petite 2 chevaux was pink rose and green !!!

We went back home with our Renault Espace brimming to the roof with divine shabby chic treasures.
Want to see them "en avant-première" ?
I found vintage 50's floral bedcovers, antique confit pots, a USA school map,
a beautiful hat suitcase, a pair of rose sconces, a gorgeous Art Deco cemetary vase,
a hemp grain sack and a cute cement curled cherub head !
Beautiful photos; love the pretties you acquired!
ReplyDeleteOh, how I long to be flea marketing in France this spring! Paris is my most favorite city in the whole world! I love the treasures she found.

ReplyDeleteHi Kathee ~ How lucky to have such a special relationship with such a wonderful person! The letter is so beautifully written and her found treasures are divine!
ReplyDeleteKATHEE, I WONDER IF THE FRENCH ARE CRAZY FOR OUR AMERICAN JUNQUE :)
ReplyDeleteLove the architecture. now give me that map. What a great find. Will it be in your booth?
ReplyDeleteHi Leslie, All of these Items are for sale thru Aline...She finds the best stuff!! Ebay site Bluecherry...or thru the email address above. Check it out! You will love her!!
ReplyDeleteIt is always refreshing to see that the things we love here in America are internationally loved as well, time worn Treasures to grace our Homes and decorate creatively with! Aline's 'scores' are fabulous... ah, to be able to do the Flea Market circuit in France would be divine!!! My Mom tells me many stories of going through the French Flea Markets in the 50's with me in tow... since I was a small child I had learned the language quickly and interpreted for my Mom... she said the French adored children and I always came away with some little Treasure given to me gratis by the sweet vendors. I still love to hear those cherished stories all these years later.

Hi over there !
ReplyDeleteFirst I want to thank again and again my wonderful friend Kathee for all the kind words and what she did and is doing for me ! We all feel here in France that we have family in the US and that's Kathee's family...We shared so many things together that it could not be another way !
Past week, I was lucky enough to buy a part of an elderly lady's enamelware collection. She is moving out towards the sun (on the Côte d'Azur... waow) and downsizing her enamelware collection. She's only holding her beautiful petite rose garland enamelled items including a hard-to-find lavabo/basin with a stunning delphin head shaped spigot. OMG ! I would so much have bought it for my own kitchen...
So I have "new" old enamelware in red, yellow, floral, speckled, geometric...etc. More pictures and information at pics.again@yahoo.fr
A bientôt les filles !
Dear Kathee,
ReplyDeleteIt was a joy talking to you also. Please stay in contact. Lovely blog.
