Since returning from our trip to UK and France (Paris and Normandy) I've been working on several projects including this fun little country retreat. While it's tugging at my heart strings I will nevertheless be taking it with me to the French Country Market which is coming up very soon on 9 November.
A big motivator for this project was this French magazine that I picked up at Gare St Lazare in Paris while waiting to take the train to Normandy.
For a great instructions on making mini lavender I recommend Annie's video on YouTube
My first and so far only pot of hydrangeas :) The paving stones are egg carton.
Pompom hydrangeas by Jody Raines
Fireplace and mirror handmade by me using picture framer's mount/matte board.
Don't you just love the little angel?
Unfortunately this window is no longer available to purchase as the manufacturer has gone out of business. Maybe you could make something similar yourself though following Lea Frisoni's instructions for opening French windows in "The Big Book of a Miniature House".
Instructions to make the French window closing can be found in Lea Frisoni's book on page 33.
Right, back to work for me - still LOTS to be done before the market!!
