From the latest clearance, I brought back a little box of old wallpaper... I really did not know what kind of patterns were tucked inside but I was pretty sure that there was nothing antique and I thought then that I wasn't going to find anything interesting in it.
But as you all know, I love wallpaper, vintage or antique, and I simply could not leave the box there.
I forgot the box untill this morning when I finally took time to investigate. What I found first was not exceptionnal but...
Well before telling more, I should remind you that Sweet peas are amongst my favorites flowers (the first ones that I grew as a child with my beloved Grandma)... and that I love a hint of black color in decoration...
Look what I found! Look what kind of paper was hidden there! Ofcourse it's only a tiny piece but with such a lovely design! I love it! Oh, yes, I almost forgot to tell that it's marked Sanderson! So happy with my old piece of paper...

While some were sleeping on this Sunday morning, early at the brocante I've been truffling pictures... I found that little album and since then I can hardly look at something else.
It is filled with sepia pictures taken around 1914 in Belgium... The Belle Epoque Promenade begins at Ostende, on the beach and at the terrace of the Villa Laura... Then we can see Minou and Annette with their nanny and with their familly in the garden... and what a garden! 
Pictures location is Thuin, a very picturesque town of the rural Belgium and here are even some vistas of the town taken by the photograph. Thuin is still well known today for its terraced gardens. And the familly here seems to have been owning one of these at that long gone era. 
But then the war came and who knows what happens to that happy familly...
