That’s all I could think in my head these past couple of
days. “Well, I’ll be…”
Moving from Paris to Provence has already proved interesting… In a good way. I can’t wait to tell you all about it and show you pictures. I will post that blog on Thursday. Thank you so much for all of your well wishes. It really warmed my heart and I can’t wait to take all of you along on this adventure.
But first, we have to talk about the November Sale! All of
October, even amist all of our packing, organizing and getting ready to move… I
still had one thing on my mind. The November Sale. I wanted to hit all of my
favorite Parisian spots to gather up all of the Parisian goodies that I could
find before I moved to Provence. Who knows if I’ll be able to find more
Chinoiserie down here in the south of France! What if they don’t have fancy
stuff down here! So, the November Sale is full of exquisite, one-of-a-kind,
hoity-toity Parisian goodies.
This is a good sale to treat yourself to something fabulous
or treat your loved one to a great Christmas gift from Paris! All of the items
will be shipped out within the week and will be to your house way before
Christmas.
Let’s get started for a little sneak peek…
I am now fully obsessed with sunburst mirrors. When you have
your eye out for something (like a sunburst mirror), miraculously you start to
see them everywhere… Magazines, auctions, blogs etc. Take a look…
Look at this sunburst. This is from the Victoria Press auction that is taking place at Christie's on November18th. Click HERE for details.
The good news is that I have another sunburst mirror available in the
November Sale… Take a look…
So, you know how I am completely obsessed with Claude
Monet’s dinnerware? If you are not aware of my obsession, check out my previous
blog about this particular dinnerware HERE. Claude Monet designed his everyday
dishes in the 1800s with a Japanese Cherry Blossom theme that he used in his
house in Giverny, France. I have a complete set and I am always, always
searching for more. There is just nothing more beautiful, I think, than antique
blue-and-white French dishes with a cherry blossom theme designed by Claude
Monet himself, right!
It is not easy to find these dishes and when one does, a
little celebration is in order. And guess what? I found this set of 10 antique
dinner plates and they will be available on the November Sale! Hip hip hooray. Take a look...

yellow dining room at Giverny, France.
Another very special item on the November Sale is a set of
12 mother-of-pearl dinner knives. When I saw these, I had my typical fleamarket
little heart attack. I mean, I’ve seen mother-of-pearl knives but not like
these! These are almost bulbous handled and are the most beautiful milky
mother-of-pearl color you’ve ever seen. These are not the petite appetizer
mother-of-pearl knives. These are the real deal dinner knives. Be still my
heart.
My favorite item of the sale is something that I have had my eye on at the fancy Parisian fleamarket called the MarchĂ© aux Puces for over a year now. An antique horn vase. The only problem with this type of beautiful vase is that they were always too expensive. But my perseverance paid off, I finally found a beautiful one that didn’t break the bank. And it’s going to be available on the November Sale! Take a look…
So that’s a little sneak peek at Friday’s sale. These are
very special items so treat yourself or someone you love because you’re worth
it! The sale starts Friday, November 6, 2015 at exactly 10 AM Pacific Standard
Time. I will be giving more sneak peeks of more items on my Instagram. You can
follow me HERE!
A toute!
