This house, located in a small village only an hour away from the centre of Paris, used to be a barn and was restored and transformed by Monique, owner of Pigwidgeon, a decorating company. She lives here with her husband and two sons. Every room is brimming with beautiful 18th century antiques and flea market finds. French an whimsical through and through.

Hello, dears! Happy Belated Easter to all of you!

I did not post these last four days because I wasn't feeling quite well after my fall last Thursday. I'm much better now and I'd like to thank you for your warm comments. (I promise I'll wear a helmet next time I get on a skateboard!)

So, back to posting it is and I'm taking you to visit a renovated house located a mere 15 kilometres from Madrid. This dreamy house was decorated by Spanish interior designers Lola and Candy Mediavilla. Mostly white and sand colours, with touches of black which give it a more masculine look.

Hello, dears. Saturday morning takes us to the mountains to have a look at this fantastic restored house. Its noble materials such as the stone arches outside, limestone floors and massive beams have been preserved and restored. Decorated in a soothing style with rustic and French furniture with an overall soft, natural palette.























Have a great weekend, my friends. Hope to see you tomorrow!

It's off to France today my friends. Located in Tourain, this home belongs to Virginia and Jean-Marc who roam garage sales and flea markets in search of furniture and ornaments in the Gustavian style they love. Jean-Marc restores their treasures and then Virginia gives them the final patina.

Good morning dear readers. Today we are going to visit interior designer Sara Lavoine's summer house in Gers countryside often called French Tuscany in the Southwest of France. She had this seventeenth century house restored keeping most of its original materials and then decorated it in a rustic country style but also adding some modern items.
Tour time, sweets. Have a blast!
