I wanted to share the fun that I had today digging through a package from one of my favorite French friends!! She just returned from France and picked up some goodies on her trip she was such a doll to let me do a little shopping.
Nothing beats the patina on the vintage French medal pieces. The beautiful French engraving and the attention to detail.







I can't wait to see what you do with these beauties!

Lovely goodies - funny how these were probably nce someone else's trash, and now are your treasures! Do you ever wonder what their histories were? Been a while since I visited, but as usual, your creations are just lovely.

What inspiring pieces you've chosen. I regret not picking up more religious pieces when I was in Paris last year. Only means I have to get back!
I cannot wait to see what you create with these. Your art is my favorite.
