Remember those

banana boxes packed in France...

 ..arrived all in good order,one week ago, much later then I was hoping to have available. It is a rush against time to have all sorted, washed and ready. The planned  open day will have to be  postponed to later, as it will be impossible to do and also  have lovely monogrammed linge, chanvre, dentelle ready and available at the next upcoming event. I also promised those that sent me their requests for special monogrammes  that I will try and find their French tresor...  I am working through the list and will contact you with details a.s.a.p ( not too late if you still want to add your name to that list, as I literally work my way through a  one ton( 1000 kg) heap of gorgeous old French finds...mon petit mont blanc!

 just mail me:
