Bonjour! We arrived back today from our whirlwind two weeks sojourn in Paris and Aix en Provence. It was a much needed escape and we loved every minute of it! We took something like 1200 photos so we hope to share a few of the loveliest. However, before we go all touristy on you, I thought it would be nice to start off with these photos of the pretty Toile de Jouy fabric we came across in the little winding streets of Montmartre. We had just climbed back down from visiting the Basilica of the Sacre Coeur and found these tiny fabric stores lined up all along one of the streets. Beautiful rolls of Toile all sitting so bright and colourful in the cold grey Parisien weather. I couldn't resist a few metres of a blue toile that was on sale for 5 euros per metre. As the store lady said "C'est incroyable, non?"
Welcome back Helen!! Yes that fabric is beautiful! Looking forward to seeing how you use it:) x
ReplyDeleteThanks Angela, I brought back some tea from Mariage Frères for you, it's called Fils de France and it's divine! Looking forwards to catching up soon :)
