By reading yesterday a post of Jackie . I've thought about sharing one of my addiction with you.
The doctor told me there are not any medicine for this one ...never mind
Jacky wrote about Houles and Van Lathem Inc , I wanted also to talk about the best french trimmings company :
"They are at the service of the French Chateaux since 1818 , It is to this day the unique and privileged partner of national museum for restauration works and also the associate of the most prestigious names among decorators and furnishing fabric designers."
One of my favorite Declercq 's passementerie is hermione collection
Then I also love the Perse one
Looks like Marie Antoinette's diner ...
Then trimmings more modern
I'm sure , Patricia is going to love this one . I do too
I love this curtain loop inspired by the Empire State Building . It will go perfecly in a modern or art deco decoration
Well after this discovery . I'm going to show you some trimmings I have in my show room
Trimmings in my purple bedroom
trimmings called " cartisane" on a Napoléon III chauffeuse in my show room
In my living room with my silky orange curtains
My addiction is so important that I even put trimmings on the walls ..YES
they are from Houles and they are glass pearls
oh, dear, I have that addiction too! Love all your trimmings, and what a wonderful way to have it in a room, on the wall!

Malanie,
I see what you mean. What a beautiful line of trimmings. I will have to order sample books. I adore the pictures of your home. Please share some bigger photos so we can see all the beautiful details. The fabric in your bedroom is to die for! I also love the trim on the walls - what a wonderful finishing touch.
