French Market Sale Photos ** We Thank You!

Bonjour!
First, Thank You to all who attended the French Market! After staying up all night, and running home to shower, we arrived back at about 740am to find the parking lot next door full and a line of eager shoppers (Thank you, Michael, for keeping everyone happy until 8am!). We piped the French music outside and opened the doors! Thank you for your patience while waiting in line....it's usually quicker, our credit card machine just decided to crash & burn on our biggest day of the year! And Thank you for record breaking sales, literally our most successful sales day ever! It validates for us that you love what we do and what we share with you....
Here are a few photos, again, thanks to Michael Patras, and hopefully we will have more soon!

The French Market tents were out front, two tents concentrated with merchandise directly from Paris.......(though there was more scattered about the sale.....) it's hard to tell, there is a BIG Eiffel tower there to the left of the arch, and we had Red our bulldog mascot dress with a beret, mustache and ascot...
This was the "Church Room" ..........
The "preacher" is a Monk's night dress from Paris and a large French Rosary, the prayer steps have two actual church pew ends on either side...
We had LOT of religious art from Paris..........
The wood sign from an old Baptist church was the inspiration......

This was the floral and fauna room. It was filled with vintage florals and bird prints, statues, eggs, and lots of nests!!!...
On to the cottage.....lots of fabulous french furniture......and linens. The fabulous crochet lace panels were directly from Provence.....I'll let the pictures do the talkin.......


Hopefully, I will have more photos of the gardens and arbors soon.
The good news is.. there's more!! We had so many wonderful things from Paris, we didn't even get them all out! So please come by or watch our website as we bring you more beautiful, authentic vintage French treasures.....
