  5. I have been following your blog foe a while but am new to blogging and couldn't figure out how to fix the glich that wouldn't let me comment!! Looks like I've doen it.. Yay!! I did a post on my favourite French inspired blogs recently and since I couldn't comment did not include yours yet but will do it for sure in the next one! I asked readers to recommend other French Inspired Blogs and two of them mentioned the Paper Mulberry. I love your style and as a newby need time to visit older posts. Veronica

  19. I am starting to look at my rooms in a different way - and I am making lists. I NEED white china and faded linens. You have started so many yearnings. I think I will start with the walls and work up from there - this may take a while!

    Hugs aplenty XX

  23. Oh my goodness! These are the most gorgeous photos I have ever seen. I love all of them. The colors are so muted and lovely. This is my most favorite style of accessories, linens, and furniture. Oh, to have a house full of this would be divine.

    You have such exquisite taste.

  24. All gorgeous, but I'm totally in love with the ruffled linens on the table. This is the perfect answer for someone that can't afford a really worn table...but really wants this authentic, soft, romantic look. Will file this away. Have a marvelous weekend. mona

  29. Thank you for repaying the visit! I am so thrilled to have found you too! My home was built in 1914 - she's not quite 100 - it would be fascinating to touch the walls and feel the atmosphere of a 500 year old home! How charming! I am looking forward to exploring more!
