French window

Well, it is not exactly a french window, but it is a window in France.

I just fell in love with these gorgeous tall old windows, the blue shutters and the beautiful curtains.

Provençale interieur

Desire to inspire, one of my favourite blogs, just wrote about provencale interior designer Nathalie Vingot Mei. Read the article here.

Look at Nathalies portfolio here.

It so much reminded me of our friends house in the south of France were we were staying.
Below are some photographs I took.

La Provence



The landscape was just gorgeous and even better than in any picture or painting. We found some wild thyme on that hill. What we haven't used for cooking yet is in a bowl on our kitchen table. Fragant memories of Provence, dry soil and a warm summer breeze.



The vinyard and farmhouses on Domain de Sigalous.

Domaine de Sigalous



Yes, these are the flowers you see through the window on the photograph of the previous blog entry.



And this is were we have been staying and working.

Provençale inspiration



Just came back from a short trip to the South of France, with new impressions, fresh ideas, beautiful bundles of lace and lots and lots of photographs.
We also brought back some bottles of the very tasty vine they make at Sigalous, and some olive oil and wild thyme. Thanks to Jeanette and Alain.
