I have just returned from a week staying with French friends in France - I have a lot of catching up to do and also a lot of photographs to sort through and later on I will share some of them with you. For now I thought you'd like this little house - a gift last week from one of my French friends with whom I used to go to yoga and to patchwork group. Isn't it cute? I shan't use it for its proper purpose as a key holder as it would get spoiled in the bottom of my bag (along with who knows what else lurks there!) but will keep it on my pinboard where I can see it and enjoy it and be reminded of friendships made when living in France.

Home Again!

How lovely that is and what a kind thought. I know exactly what you mean about the depths of the handbag, I always find a multitude of surprises when I finally bother to clean mine out. Looking forward to hearing about la France, we're off there very soon. x
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty little house! A nice memory of France. Looking forward to seeing the photos of your trip! :) x
ReplyDeleteThat is so cute. Thought I'd got the handbag sorted now I'm all grow'd up, but didn't take into account looking after grandchildren!! Now I find nappy bags, half eaten organic biscuits and sticky things I dare not investigate! Lovely that you keep in touch with your friends and are still able to visit.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to the pictures.
Glad to see you back and to hear you had a lovely time. Cute little house/s ;-)
ReplyDeleteI've got your goodies finished, just got to get them ready to post on Monday!
Lovely keyring. Looking forward to hearing about France

Oh that dear little house! How gorgeous! Welcome back x
ReplyDeleteIt is so pretty. Lovely to see you back again Jane and thank you for your sweet comments on my blog. Have a lovely weekend x
ReplyDeleteLove your little houses - how lovely to get gifts from friends. Looking forward to your photographs.
ReplyDeleteThat house is lovely. Glad you had a lovely holiday. It's always good to spend time with friends. Shall be looking forward to seeing the photos. Lesley x
ReplyDeleteDon't know when I last saw the bottom of my handbag!!!! :O)))))) Super little house, such a sweet gift. Like everyone else, I am really looking forward to the photos.....
ReplyDeleteIt is really cute! I wouldn't dare to give it a proper use either. Nice idea to keep it where you can see it everyday. :-)
ReplyDeleteLove the little house. There are a lot of very clever, creative people around aren't there.
ReplyDeleteHow lucky you are to be able to flit over to France so easily. I guess, since you lived there, that you must speak the language. I would love to be able to speak another language as so many of you can over there. It is so much easier to pick it up if you are immersed in it isn't it? We were making quite a bit of progress during our holiday but it slips away quite quickly when you don't use it.
I'm glad you are OK. I was a bit concerned when you weren't around.
Cheers
Helen
Lovely to see you're back again - am looking forward to seeing your pictures too. The little house is so cute, what a sweet present. Definately one to keep and admire rather than subject to the depths of the handbag!

Glad you had a good time.
ReplyDeleteNice to have you back Jane!
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous little house, way too pretty for the bottom of a handbag!!
Lucky you having a little trip to France.
Enjoy your weekend. :)

Glad you had a good time in France. Look forward to seeing the piccies.
ReplyDeleteLovely to see you back and hope you had a lovely time in France. Can't wait to see your photos. The little house is adorable and I don't think I could use it either for fear of spoiling it!
ReplyDeleteTake care,
Louise
Happy to see you enjoyed your trip to France. Catching up with old friends is always a pleasure.
ReplyDeleteCute little house!
