This will be our home away from home
The apartment is located in a typical Haussmanian building
one block from the Seine and just across the river from
Notre Dame in one of Paris' oldest districts.
I also wanted a balcony, and in this apartment
there is a little one which is just fine for me.

The bedroom is tres jolie, isn't it?
It overlooks a quiet street, and the
lavender tones are soothing.
Will we be watching TV?
Doubtful.
The true test will be summoning the willpower
to not rearrange these shelves in a more
appealing manner.
A small but efficient kitchen
with everything we need.
(and more light!)
And a casual dining space.
Yes, please.
I thought the towel warmer was a great perk.
We will be walking 4 flights up.
We booked the apartment through
Haven in Paris,
and of course I will share
more of the Paris experience
after our stay.
Peace to you right where you are.
We have decided to enlist the help of
the charming Geoffrey Bradfield
for our living room since it remains
a dull blank slate...
A BOLD FACED LIE!
Geoffrey Bradfield is "the billionaire's designer," dear ones!
The KING of functional opulence.
The GODFATHER of interiors.
The millenial modern MACDADDY of
high brow style.
He is not making his way
to the ghetto just yet.
Not that there's anything wrong with ghetto living.
Hush now.
Allow us to dream on planet michele.
Dream the DEAN of American design
will see our blogdiggity post and feel
compelled to make ours a Cinderella story.
A charity case for a basket case, if you will.
He may have a soft spot for basketcases.
I read an interview with Bradfield,
I read an interview with Bradfield,
and his sense of humor is refreshingly intact.
How to make a room look like a million bucks?
"SPEND TWO MILLION."

Ha!
This I know.
The designer loves museum quality
contemporary art and New York
(note the cityscape wall coverings).

the most casual GB space I could spot in googledom
Can't wait to get these non-billionaire paws
on his forthcoming book
21st Century Palace
and share its dreamy deliciousness with you.
Bon weekend!
Peace to you right where you are.
No idea when I began reading Suzanne's
beautiful Privet and Holly...
I only know it was love at first sight.
She has this gift for self expression, you see.
There's also the gift for photography,
for seeing lovely,
and for finding the goodness
of God, family, home,
and the everyday.
Privet and Holly posts are charming with
their poetry and visual inspiration.
My soul is always moved.
You know how it is when you read truth
and the tears come.
all images - Privet and Holly
She makes us all cry, but the funny thing is,
I just know if we ever got together
in noncyberworld, we would only laugh!!!
