I've ran into your blog before and really enjoyed it. I have always loved the frenchy style. I've contemplated decorating french but realize I don't know very much about their decor and I think it might be hard to find thrift ways to decorate.

My great grandma did not throw away wrapping paper, she had a beautiful collection of them in her wardrobe. She also use to treat us to "2 carrés de chocolat Nestlé" if we had been good. I still dream about the taste of that chocolate. It made me feel so special and highly favored.<br /><br />Thank you for sharing your memories Frenchy. <br /><br />Bonne journée.
