Recent Thrift: Paris Handkerchief
I found this fabulously illustrated handkerchief, likely from the '50s or '60s, at a thrift store for $2.

Namesake Sign à la French Country
No, this isn't me awkwardly posting belated Christmas stuff in January, this is a sign I made featuring my last name. My mom found the frame at Value Village a few months ago, but the art within was some folk art painting that had nothing to do with the fleur-de-lis on the metal inset.
So, I flipped the picture around and painted on the black back of it. I whipped this vintage French ephemera font out of my mind based on the French Country style of the rest of the frame, and went to town with some white acrylic paint and paint pen. Voilà!

Annie Sloan's Room Recipes
I highly recommend this book.
It features inspiration for a variety of my favourite styles, all with a touch of history. Here's a peek at some of the lovely images inside.
