Okay, so I lied to you! I know I said I was going to post more vintage Valentine postcards this evening BUT... I was cleaning out my office today and I found the piece you see above and I just HAD to share it with you. And it just couldn't wait!!! I've had this for a year and had totally forgotten about. This is the front of an antique sales flyer for a Furniture manufacturer in Paris. I just love the ornate frame, the beautiful typography and of course the Paris address. I'm posting two copies, one that has the original aged patina and one that has been cleaned up, so you can decide how you want to use these. I hope you like them!
I promise, I'll post the Valentine's tomorrow.
XXXOOO
Its Ok!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad that you shared this beauty!

Hugs!

I've saved both versions, Karen! Not sure at the moment what I'm going to do with them, but I'm sure a lightbulb will go off at some point! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteThis is like a little Valentine's Day gift to us all. It's wonderful, fabulous and gorgeous. We should all use it in something and brag about it on Monday!
ReplyDeleteOh i love it! Thanks for sharing Karen :)
ReplyDeleteBoth versions are great, thanks so much for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThese are great, thank you for being so generous with all of the images you share! :)
ReplyDeleteIt's lovely, thank you!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous image, thank you!
ReplyDeleteI was really surprised to see that it says the stores are open on a SUNDAY until 3 o'clock. These days, you are hard pushed to find a store open on a Sunday, usually only the bakeries are open, because they French can't do without their fresh French stick. But supermarkets and all other shops are usually closed. At least in Burgundy, where our cottage is. That was the most difficult thing to get used to.
Hi Karen,
ReplyDeletelove it - thanks for all the great images you always share.
Hugs
