Busy Bees

Boy have we been busy here at French Charmed! You lovelies bought us out of so much of our product in such a hurry, that we’re behind on placing the plethora of new items we have onto the boutique website! But worry not: My daughter will be here this week to help me get things in order. I couldn’t be more ecstatic! And I’m very delighted to share the fabulous new product we have coming in the next couple of weeks. It’s all going to be spectacular! Speaking of busy bees, I just wanted to remind you all of the beautiful French bee glassware and pitcher we have in our French Farmhouse section (all of which would look spectacular on the table setting above). The unique collection was splendid for summer, but I get the feeling the glasses would work wonders for those steamy, homemade sea-salted caramel hot chocolates we’ll all be making for fall and winter, too!

All Bottled Up

I recently dropped by an interesting blog called Savvy Southern Style Reviews, and I fell in love with these bottles featured on a recent post. Aren't they just fabulous?! Makes me want to rush out to a flea market and find something similar for my own space. Just gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous!

Bedazzled

We really don’t spend as much time anywhere else in our entire house as we do in our bedrooms. We dream there, read there, do other unmentionable things there (wink, wink), so it really should be the number one space we think of when decorating. Because a beautiful bedroom can only lead to beautiful things...

So Twisted

As recent years have proven, braids aren’t just for little girls anymore. In fact, I swear I see more of the pretty twists on adults than I do on their mini counterparts! When done correctly and seemingly without effort, the look is super romantic. And it’s a perfect way to keep cool during these warm summer days.

Bar None

Confession: I spent the entire Labor Day weekend drinking. And while I sipped on my champagne, craft beer and other various spirits, I dreamed of the type of bar I’d have at home if ever I decided to move my collection out of the dusty cabinet above the refrigerator where it currently resides. The conclusion: It would have to be something decidedly chic, unique and ultimately girly. Cheers to that, right?
