My Grand mother was called Antoinette...one of my favorite name. My favorite movie of all time is Marie Antoinette by Sofia Coppola HERE. To learn more about Marie Antoinette and her life HERE.
Do you remember my bedroom ? The post about it is HERE. See how much and where things come from.
Here is my Spring/Summer look....Marie Antoinette Style.
Zebra pillows, one of my favorites.
The bedding was bought years ago at JC Penney HERE. They have great, romantique beddings, one is on front page of their bedding department now and would work great.
Having a little Tea Party, just by myself...
The gardens (Jardin) in France are beautiful...Love the picture...
Orchids are great in Paris when you live in an Apartment. They are on of my favorite flowers...
Little tart, They are a French Classic. Got it from Kneaders HERE.
Herbal tea...
Well, the time of Marie Antoinette is past but, i can still get a taste of it....With some tools...
Get an up hairdo....
And still be modern...
I will relax and enjoy my Tea Party...

looks really great!!! I love the floors. And the bedding. Yes we served together at temple square those many years ago,Sister Signs (Melinda Signs Williamson on Facebook). Sorry I have not maintained my blog as well as I had hoped life gets soo crazy sometimes. Bolgs are the best way to keep a journal for the family. Yes we have adopted 2xs and are doing it again, to make it 5 kids (oh my goodness). you have a great talent for style. It's fun to follow your blog.
What a beautiful bedroom. I loved it. That and the orchids. So pretty.
Your spring bedroom look is so nice! It looks so cozy and romantic. I love it. And I seriously want a tart now. Delicious.
My grandmother's name was Minnie. I love it.
OMG, I'm in love with your bedroom! It's super ladylike! I love every single detail! Congrats!
Cheers: Evi
Ps: I adore Marie Antoinette from Sophia Coppola as well :-)
Oh yes I do love your spring 'Marie Antoinette' look! Love the zebra pillow too...I have a collection of animal print pillows-giraffe, zebra,leopard, and bear. They are so fun, aren't they? And you are adorable in your Antoinette curls!!! So cute. I love your tea setting...your room has a soft, peaceful glow. And those wood floors are what we want to put in Sea Cottage...someday.
Oh my goodness. This bedroom is stunning. I loe everything about it. Gorgeous. Hugs, Marty

You have such a lovely blog. This is my first time here.
I would not have thought of Marie Antoinette having zebra striped cushions though.
I guess we have to use our imaginations for that one. I love the plank floors in your bedroom.

That is an amazing impression of a modern Marie Antoinette bedroom! Very inspired!
What a gorgeous room, home, family! I love your post about binkies in heaven, and I'm so glad to "meet" you and discover your blog!
I do believe you have forgotten her beheading...is that next on your agenda?
She was a Woman, a wife, a mother. There is more to her than her death.
Most people are famous for the negative. It is very sad.
This is why i love Sofia Coppola's movie. She portraits her as an human. Yes, in France there is bad feelings about the king and nobles at the time. it will not happen again and people had their revolution. But at the end of the day. Rich or not. People are just people.
Well said! I am going to have to re- watch it. I am the Italian version of Antoinette my name is Antonietta.
