france part 1

We got back from France about a week and a half ago, but it's taken me awhile to get back into the swing of things. As expected, France was fabulous! I took quite a few pictures, and have just begun sorting through them. We stayed in the quaint little town of Bayeux, Normandy the first night, then drove to the coast to see the D-day beaches and the American cemetery.















More photos to come..

Pretty old books

Hello friends! Sorry for the long absence. Work has been busier than usual, leaving me with little energy in the evenings for blogging or crafting. I hope it lets up soon so I'll be able to sew and put new things in the shop!

This past weekend I went to the Alameda Flea with my treasure-hunting buddy, Traci. I saw these old books and loved the beautiful patterns on the covers. I love the contrasting labels too - so perfect.




Oh, we're leaving this weekend for France! This will be my first time in Paris - I can't wait!
