Yesterday I waved good bye to a new friend that came here via blogging. Laura McGuire is a tall beautiful Texan, who works as a successful stylist and is about to launch her new business in French antiques.
You can see examples of her fantastic talents as a stylist here
Laura stayed here for a week and together we trailed through brocantes all over Normandy. Didn't feel like work at all! As you know I love hunting for treasure at any time of day but to do it with a friend is even more fun.
As soon as she arrived the atmosphere was relaxed. We both like the same stuff so it wasn't hard for me to take her to the right addresses to buy. We went from one extreme to another - the large open air brocante yard, with sheds, and boxes and shelves to look through, to the sweet little Normandy antique and brocante dealers, which gave us an excuse to play tourists and take pictures of the pretty towns and vilages.
Once again I have to say how amazing a blog is for bringing people together. WHAT DID WE DO without internet?!!!
So thank you Laura, for being such a charming guest, I hope we'll meet again soon!
