LE PETIT CABINET DE CURIOSITES

COINCIDENCE

life is a series of coincidence

on the 13th of september , Merisi's Vienna for beginners sent pictures of a cushion and a dessert that MATCH perfectly with this fabric .

So if anyone wants to have this fabric in her home , she will have to go to Vienna to buy the perfect cushion and the wonderful dessert .

I would dream about curtains in this fabric , seated ia a wonderful orange sofa with petits pois cushions in my back , eating this wonderful dessert ...

What do you think ??

the cushion ( look in the back ..a designer guild's fabric)

and the wonderful patisserie ...

P.S : For the bloggers who are wondering if I'm addicted to this fabric ...no , no, no I'm not I just in love it

Work of the week

Here is the work of my dad

How we can change a beautiful victorian armchair into a wonderful modern armchair

look at the folds , I love the details

It can match perfectly with a timeless and classic decoration or a modern one with black and white for example

More orange ideas

For mads I found today , some new orange ideas , even in my show room

Orange and modern , orange and 70's ...and I love the coordinates

Wonderful art deco style Osborne and little's fabric

My curtains in my show room , can be an ideas also ..sorry for the picture ..

Detail , there are 2 fabrics , both are designer guild .

I think the choice of the stipes of Lelievre of my next post is a good one

To answer to Merisi , yes these stripes are horizontal ...That 's why I like in this fabric and the colors are fantastic. It exists also with others colors price :65 euro / m

Fall colors

it seems fall is coming , even if it is still warm here in Provence.

We can see and feel Fall is here

Even in my shop you can see it

ideas

I received a message from Mads few weeks ago , asking me for some help to find a fabric for curtains for her dining room .

She wrote that she  " wanted to encorporate orane more into the room" and "something more bold and modern maybe".

Coco and Kelley have already given her some ideas

Well Here are some fabrics ideas I have ,I hope it will help

The picture of the dinig room , the walls are blue

A sahco fabric , a kind of Ikat inspitration . it is not the right color , you can see the orange at the left

Canovas fabric . Just a little bit of orange

Elitis fabric , I love this one and the next one of the same company

It could be nice also to use it on the chairs

My favorite 2 ones are here :

This one for me is perfect , modern , orange and blue like the walls ....perfect choice

Lelievre 's fabric.

Retour de salon

I hate the day after we come back from antiques fair ...

Well , You have souvenirs but you are exhausted and you have to clean and set up once again in your shop ..

Here are some souvenirs of the fair

Antiques fair

Once again , my work brings me far away from you ..

Today I'm setting up my stand in the 1st antiques fair in Marseilles.

If some of you are around Marseilles this weekend and until monday .

You can come , I have free tickets so just send me a message or ask for me at the entrance : M . Aussandon

This ad sums up a little bit about me , I'm an antiques dealer and in the right corner you see the wheel of the Rotary and I'm also a member of the rotary club ( I will write longer about this membership in a  next post) .

Details

In life , I 'm very sensitive to the charm of little details : a smile , a world ,  a gesture ..

For home , it is the same I'm very sensitive to the charm of small details in antiques  decoration and architecture

detail of a mirror in Avignon  , I think this is the face of the owner

An heart , a drawer given for a wedding's present

a foot of an empire drawer ...

Inlaid on box

Faces of the owners on the facade in Marseilles

Angel on a facade in Nice

We have to pay attentions, to enjoy and to look at everything we are surrounded with
