In my kitchen i love
to have that Parisienne feel.
Especially now that i am in a small place.
I like to think of it as a small Paris apartment!
Just like this pretty tin that
holds some of my teas...
One of my favourite blogs is
Paris through my lens.. .by Virginia.
I love love this blog.
It makes me happy every time i visit.
Virginia is a professional photographer and has spent alot
of time in Paris. I have never been to Paris and hope to visit one day
but until then i live vicariously through Virginia's blog!
She was having a give away of a cool sketch by Paris artist Annie Poon
and i won!!
It is a beautiful sketch and looks wonderful in my kitchen.
The walls in our carriage home are heavily angled so
i barely have any straight walls to hang things.
The window over the kitchen sink is deep
the perfect place for a vignette.
This is where i have put my Annie Poon sketch!
I love the crispness of the black sketching on white paper...
Even my son absolutely loved it.
So if you have never visited
you are truly missing out!!
Thank you again Virginia for my beautiful gift!
And thank you
all
for visiting

ReplyDeletePamela,
ReplyDeleteI am so happy that you won! I fell in love with French Buttons at first sight of one of your kitchen vignettes. I'm in love once again! I am headed over to Paris through my lens! Thank you for introducing me to Virginia!

Dear Pamela, you are a dear for linking to my blog. I appreciate the kind words and I'll only add that I've only been at photography for about 4 years. My first trip to Paris in 2007 is what changed my life!
ReplyDeleteAnd for your readers that like Annie's work, she is on Etsy!
I think your sketch of Cafe Nemours quite at home in your lovely vignette. I knew it would after all.
Bon weekend dear,
V
Congratulations on winning that wonderful sketch. I will run over and take a look at her blog so I can daydream about Paris this afternoon.
ReplyDeleteIm with you! Anything french is great! :D I love the picture, congrats on winning!!!
ReplyDeleteHugs,
You have so many pretty things Pamela and have them displayed together perfectly!
ReplyDeleteI hope you are enjoying a wonderfully warm weekend!

Terrific luck! You've set up a lovely little french scene and the sketch of the cafe is so fitting. I visited Paris through my lens - beautiful photography that just makes you want to visit France all the more! My daughter who lives in England vacationed in Paris and loved it!

What a lovely place to live. I've been to Vancouver Island a few years ago and loved the gardens. Love the sketch too. So glad you won it! Keep dreaming of Paris and you'll get there. Joan
