C'est la Vie

I took a tiny bit of French in High school- if nothing else, it helped me come up with today's blog Title. :)
 
A few Months back a Friend took me to a thrifty store that I'd never heard of, Savers. I'd say it's similar to a Goodwill.
We were both in a crafty mood & were perusing the home goods for fixer-upper-projects. I immediately went to a wall of shelves that housed lots of interesting (to say the least!) art.   Really, I just wanted a neat looking frame so that I could be artsy & use some chalk paint- but an actual piece of artwork caught my eye.
 
This gem!


How gorgeous is it?
I liked everything about it, even down to the naturally distressed frame.
For now, it's found it's place on my nightstand, right next to a favorite wedding day photo of my Hubs.

 
Every time I look at it- I'm taken into a Parisian dreamland. Complete with fresh baguettes & bundles of gorgeous roses & sweet macaroons. :)
And, I'm okay with that.
 
 
I've also decided that my little Parisian apartment would be located above- with glorious windows over looking a quaint town. :)
