RED, RED, RED.........

Valentines'day might well be for in a couple of days but this is only a coincidence... 

A pure coincidence, really...

It's only a coincidence if these last days I found some red items...

I've been dreaming of it since a while but I finally found it! An old sofa with period velvet! I knew it would be great in the boudoir de la Marquise!




The next day, I wasn't shopping for antiques, just having a little walk in Mons (2015 European Capital of Culture ) when I came in front of that antique shop. I haven't been there for so long that I didn't resist, opened the doors and went right trough the shop to their antique fabric "shelf". These were there composedly waiting for me: a quartet of antique quilts in red printed fabric. Couldn't leave them there...Could I?

Only a coincidence, only a good luck, only a chance...


A dear friend told me a few days ago: "You attract what you love the most!" However can you guess that green is my fav color? It really is!







All the while, the Marquise under her red quilt on her red sofa is reading a red book in her red room... Not drinking red wine, no: she prefer strawberry juice. Better for her diet.
