My family and many of my friends know how much I adore French inspired creations and design. The flourish of the curly-cues and curves are so appealing. An image of the Eiffel Tower in any form sets my imagination into high gear. It will come as no surprise to people who know me well that when I feel the desire to get creative, it is often with a French flair. So, when pondering what to make for Joanne, a dear friend of mine, I designed the stenciled pillow covers shown in this post.  I constructed the pillow cover/shams myself from a twin sized white cotton sheet and embellished the opening edges with black grosgrain ribbon before sewing the side seam together.

George Vanderbilt, who built Biltmore House known as Biltmore House as the home for he and his wife Edith. They traveled extensively and were, in fact, transatlantic travelers.

Anxious to get back home, they and their daughter decided t...

Yesterday was a really good day! I have said this before, but one of the things I enjoy most is visiting thrift stores and hunting for hidden treasures. When my B.F.F., Harriette, can go with me, it is much more fun. Please allow me to share with you the great things I found. I found this pretty and very large (28 X 22 inches) framed print at the newest S.P.C.A. thrift store in town. Framed Print of  Children at Play from S.P.C.A. Thrift Store Everything in this store was fifty percent off yesterday, so this $15.00 picture cost just $7.50! I have not measured it yet, but it is very large. It is just a print and the frame has some dings, here and there, but I love the children in it.  I haven' t yet decided where I am going to hang it, but it will look very good in most any room. I snatched it up and am happy that I did because it instantly spoke to the heart of this grandmother of five! I also picked up this wonderful plate with a picture, in red, of a man toi...
