I am very influenced
by all things french!!
For French Inspiration Thursday,
I thought I would share
a little corner in my kitchen.
I have a passion for dress forms.
I think I own 18
(we will have to talk further about that at another time, lol)
I love dressing them up, either seasonal or with lot's of bling.
Both of these were gifts from my adoring husband.
I found this at a local flea market. Not really sure what it is, maybe some type of seeder, but had to have it.
I also love primitive portrait paintings..I am fascinated by them. I purchased these from a market in PA several years back. I think them to be in perfectly worn and chipped condition without any frames....
and let's not forget about the toile wallpaper....

Absolutely LOVE your dress forms!! I would love to have one like those!!! I have a regular sewing one and also a molded body type one that some find a bit creepy- but hey, kinda like the frenchy look!! Stopping by from Common Ground today ~ nice to meet you!! Now following :) stop by and say hello sometime!
Love the toile wallpaper and your dress forms are so unique and pretty too :)
Love your blog. Found it on Charm Bracelet Diva. I linked up with her Toile Party. I am going to be one of your followers! Please take a look at my new blog and be a follower and leave a comment or tidbit of advice. I have crafted, junked and antiqued for years. I love your manequin and am in the market for one now to put in my studio. The round metal screen thing I believe is a miner's gold sifter...not sure, but I have one similar & that is what I was told. Thanx for sharing and I will share your sight with my gal pals. Greetings from the land of dixie.Tiff http://thecrankyqueen.blogspot.com
