In Provence - South of France
I really do recommend that you visit her blog
because of her very interesting and wonderful traveling reportages
throughout Europe, South Africa and...and....and... 'Brocante-ing' in the Provence
in Isle-sur-la Sorgue
'catching the atmosphere'
***
In the USA
with Laura here
I very much like her 'snap shoots' and the feeling and love for...
...interesting objects, creating arrangements...
...like still lifes.
... American pieces!
***
En tour with...
Martin, Trinidad and Johan
'negotiating'
'schlepping'
'more schlepping'
'packing and loading'
'signed - sealed - and happy'
...and displayed for the Container sale
"The art of brocante-gathering" .....
...and creating the look
by Johan

Should you intend to go to a brocante or antique show over the weekend -
HAPPY HUNTING !

To all blogger friends
my apologies for being so much behind with commenting on so many posts.
As things are calming down here I hope to read all and catch-up during the next week.

We pray for everybody living in New York and the East coast
and hope that this terrible hurricane 'Irene' will be as 'kind' as possible.
God is with you all.
I'm headed to France in two weeks and what I want to know is, How am I going to get any of this good stuff home to Texas?

I need to get off this mountain and go antiquing! Talk about all the eye candy love it! You are so sweet to have emailed, thank you, and while still getting hammered by the storm we’re holding our own. As long as the electricity stays on I get a day to play in blogs so not all things are bad when it comes to hurricanes….lol. HUGS!
ReplyDeleteBonjour Karin! I love all that you shared...especially the arrangement of objets from 52 Flea. And of course, my very favorite is the Provence
ReplyDeleteBlessings,

Karin, I've just returned from a few days in Scotland to find this lovely post - you are so kind to have included my blog here, so many thanks! And I've just had fun exploring the other links too.
ReplyDeleteI do hope that after such a busy time you are finally getting some relaxation and can enjoy the last weeks of summer. I so appreciate your support and friendship and always love visiting your blog. Karen xo
What a lovely post. Thank you so much for including my visit to Country Roads Antiques. You have such a beautiful blog and it is an honor to be included. I recently spent a little time with Trinidad and we spoke about what a lovely blog you have and what a very nice person you are.
ReplyDeleteI was also absent from posting and commenting for a while because I had knee surgery. It's good to be back.
Yes, our prayers have been with those on the east coast.
PS. Caught up on your last post too and was intrigued and loved the brocante.
