An unexpected and providential clearance...

On New-Year's Eve, I was talking with my good friend Caroline who told me that her auntie was clearing the nearby house of her step-mother. 













Caroline had already had the chance to get into that house and to choose a few items for her. As she is a fashion designer, she only took a few antique and vintage textiles for her. "Ben, you should see the house, she told, when I was in, I had the impression to be stuck in another era. It really is a "time capsule"... and you should hurry up because they are beginning to threw items away!".



















On Saturday morning, I was on the place and spend all the day truffling in the house. I went back on Sunday, and will be there next week-end too as the attics and the garden shed still need to be explored by your hunting dog...













Here are some pics of some items, the boxes still waiting to be sorted out in my entrance and a few pics of the lovely decaying flowers beds surrounded by gorgeous box edges (I would love to move them into my own garden!)
