paris flea market treasure
June 20, 2011
Hello
How are you all? Are you doing all right where ever you are? As you know, im in israel heading to italy in a couple of weeks…than paris. Can’t wait.
You might notice small changes in the post format. This is because of my new toy…ipad2…and now “iblog” from my ipad. A small task but not so simple. As of now i’m not sure i know what i’m doing.
On the same note, i wanted to show you my found treasure on a recent trip to paris…hunting for specials.
The vintage mirror tray wasn’t included. I know…should have bought it.
from a distance i spotted this delicate and exquisite white porcelain tea set that was looking back at me…on a quiet flea market morning…while i walked with my husband…quickly i let go of his hand and ran to this tiny looks-like-it’s closed shop…my husband thought i saw a ghost.
Oh…so delicate to hold…the sound of the cups against the saucers was almost like a “tweet”. and i’m thinking…it was meant to be.
after fruitful negotiation (thanks to my husband), i happily and carefully brought the bubble wrapped tea set…to the states…into my kitchen…where it belongs.
I’m the only one in my household who pays special attention to this gorgeous delicate. everyone else drinks from regular way bigger mugs. they think i’m crazy to sip my coffee once and refill it. it’s so small but i don’t mind. to me every sip i gold.
