inspiring

i wish i had a window sill like this to display vases (and more) at home!

you know i love vases and i certainly have lost count of how many types i sell in the shop. 

while a flower may be dainty enough to grace any empty bottle i prefer a vase that looks good on its own too because i don't have flowers that often.

so even if i feel very inspired by this picture of the "house doctor" catalogue, if i look closely at the vases i'm less impressed: taken one at the time i'm not a fan of these vases that imitate old ones. no, (in various degree) they're not up to snuff.

so kudos to the stylist of this picture... and let's wait for real flea market finds to mix with other vases.

floral details

a bit unlucky i forgot my umbrella in my friend's car last monday! while another copious rain shower is hitting the street we can wonder at floral details without getting wet...
lately i have been taking pictures of these floral details in prints, postcards, t-towls etc because they are slowly selling out and sadly i cannot restock. i can only hope the french trio will change its mind and revive the production, sooner or later.
