Bonjour! I'm back, jet lagged, but back! I've missed you girls :) I have soooooooo much to share with all of you...but I need a little time to sort through all of my photos...
But I wanted to at least share some of my amazing time in Paris with you today, so here goes...
This is me, trying to look cool in Paris...hee hee...oh how I loved all of the beautiful old doors everywhere!
I was awe struck by the incredible architecture at every turn you went...lots more of that to come...
To make things simple, today I will focus on my excursions to the French flea markets. To say I was in heaven, is an understatement! And my husband was a real trooper...it was so nice to have someone to carry all of my stuff :)
Here is a sampling...
{You'll have to excuse the lighting on this one...my husband is still trying to figure out how to use my camera!}
I'll have to leave my purchases for another post, as I haven't had time to photograph them yet.
I'll be back soon to announce the winner of my giveaway {ends tonight at midnight}!
Enjoy the rest of your week my friends!!!

I just have to say that these pictures make me want to go to Paris! I'm glad you got home before the flights were grounded!
You sound as though you had a wonderful time and I am now green with envy. Don't know if I can bear to look at your actual purchases, but I will probably force myself!!
Hi! I've been following for awhile but haven't commented ~ I love everything about your blog, decorating ideas and inspirations. I love all these photos from Paris and can't wait to see more!
Sarah :)
I had to look at all your pictures 3 or 5 times! Ooh la la!
How fun it must have been :)
Welcome back Tracey and so glad that you had a wonderful time.
Love all the photos you have shared and how lucky, going to the wonderful flea markets and seeing all those fabulous treasures.

Just became a follower, recently (probably while you were away) and I'm looking forward to seeing more photos and all of our treasures! I barely scratched the surface of flea markets when I visited Paris many moons ago....was just figuring out that vintage was something I loved. Oh, to visit again, now that I KNOW....! xx P&H

Welcome back, Tracey! Oh my, I'm drooling over every picture:) I went to Paris once...my junior year in h.s.{French III class}...and yes, the architecture, the art, was breathtaking & incredible. But, I really missed out on the shopping & the flea markets!!
Oh what a teaser, can't wait to see more!
I am stillw anting one of those giant clocks. How to get it home...crated and shipped is in my future, I think. Glad you had fun!
Tracey,
I can only imagine how much fun you had. I want everything that you took a picture of. I can hardly wait to see what else you have to show us. I can also hardly wait to see what treasures you found! : )))
Take Care,

Hi Tracey
I've just stumbled on your blog & love it! I'm a young gran, live in New Zealand and my daughter lives in France, she has 2 little girls. We visit every other year and of course visit Paris 1 & half hours away from her village in Burgundy. When she was a young girl at uni I had a dream, in it were 2 little girls in smocked dresses & they spoke in french... I've always loved everything french. I've put you on my 'daily visits'. Thank you for starting my day in a special way!
Shane
Looks like you were in flea market HEAVEN!
:)Heidi
Welcome back and oh my goodness the flea outing looks amazing how did you not bring back everything! can't wait to see what you did bring back.
Happy weekend,
xo,
LuLu
Just can't wait to see what wonderful treasures you found! What a fabulous trip!!!
I was hyperventillating looking at your market photos. I want one of everything. Can't wait to see what you bought.
Welcome back, your photo's show that I've never seen anything 'here', to even come close to the flea market that you shopped at in France! I can hardly wait to see more! Debbie @ Cottage Hann~Me~Downs
How exciting! I can't wait to hear everything.
Did you go to Dehilerin? The best cookware, ever.
And both the flea markets and the food markets are heavenly, aren't they? We furnished my daughter's apt there entirely with flea market items. Unforutately, it just cost too much to ship everything home, so she had to leave the bigger pieces. :(
Green with envy....
Huggies,
Spencer
How fun!!! Love all your beautiful pictures!!! Those stores look amazing!!!!
Having myvery first giveaway!!! Come on over and see.
