Last summer, I took you with me to Lafitte, a mansion/castle in the South West of France where I spend a few weeks every year. This year, we are going to step into the rooms again, as I wanted to share with you some of the beautiful patterns that brighten up many of the rooms... Come in!From top:
1. the cotton sheets in my room
2. the wallpaper in the stairs
3. bedspread in the master bedroom
4. a comfy chair in the main living room

How totally perfect.
DEBRA - and there's more to come!
J ELAINE - oh he always loves a comfy chair! And he's digging like crazy atop the bedspreads.
IF JANE - you are just too adorable, always.
I love this little glimpse into your french sojourn. For some reason I can't help but think of The Mysteries of Udolpho when I think of a house in the French countryside. Maybe because there's something so old world and antique about these exquisite patterns--they probably are antiques! You are staying in a castle, after all.
More pics, please. :-)
Oh I wanna go! How lovely. I love all the colors, patterns and textures. Gorgeous!
I would like to ask the Oracle how he likes the French countryside and how he finds life in a chateau?
such pretty old-school patterns! hope you are enjoying paris.
JOANNA - there will be more pics in the days to come!
I've been wanting to read The Mysteries of Udolpho since I read Jane Austen's Northanger Abbey.
J ELAINE - Hi my doll! I'm having a wonderful time here at Laiftte. All I do is fetch the ball, sniff intensively, get in trouble with the neighbor's cat and play with the kids - except for one kid whom I met again today and whose limbs I wanted to bite into.
I can't wait to see you! Woof!
Thank you - you kind person for sharing! So lovely!
Lovely patterns, the last one is my favorite ... thanks for sharing.
The sheets have the most awesome patterns
SAMMI - yes, it's a dream to sleep in them, I just love it!
Oh the age old rivalry between cat and dog. Hey, maybe Jean-Robert was a cat in a former life or maybe a rival ex-con?!
How lovely...thanks for bringing us in :)
J ELAINE - I like your idea, doll. That kid gives out a bad vibe. I'm pretty sure I heard him Meow at me some time ago...
Familiar patters ... I wish I could be there!
That wallpaper is gorgeous! So bold and pretty. :)
I'm a bit of a pattern-free zone. You might just be stirring me to do something about that...
RACHEL - be bold! It really livens up a room...
oh, these patterns make me go crazy! soooo lovely!
