Heaven on a lampshade



These latest days had been so dull and the weather so unkind for outdoor activities that my departure for the brocante on Wednesday was a real impulse. I had to go to the brocante and once I arrived at Brussels, I rushed to the flea market under the darkest sky praying that I will be able to reach it before the next shower...


My first purchase was the white bisque angel and it worked as the best keepsake! Not only have I been able to walk "dry" through the entire brocante but I also found gorgeous antique textile...




Among my other purchases and like music to my hears: Silk curtains with passementerie trim... Velvet & brocade antique doily with gold metallic trim... boudoir cushion... and a huge antique lampshade...












And what a lampshade!!! I feel like I have been staring at it since Wednesday!
Timeworn, faded, torn apart, it probably have all the detracts you might imagine (except that it is very clean and doesn't smell like musty old thing) but what I can only see for my part are the handpainted roses, the gold metallic trim and that faded blue velvet... That Color!!! Look at that Color!!! I am sure that Heaven is from that same color !
