This set of flower shots was taken at a gorgeous flower shop in the 6th. Kasey and I loved how they had flower petals scattered all over the ground, and that they had THE MOST BEAUTIFUL bouquets.
I plan on listing these shots in the shop when I get myself organized enough to do so. For now however, I am doing a give-away. I have a HUGE collection of craft items - ribbon, beads, glass, small mirror pieces, etc that is sadly neglected in my home. Thus, I want to re-home it with people who will use it! It is all a part of my attempt to focus, something I am finding difficult when every day I stare at so much excess. I will put together two packages and (happily) send them off to two lucky readers next week! Please simply leave a comment - followers will have two entries, three if you tweet/post about it. Please MAKE SURE TO TELL ME how many entries you have so that I make sure and credit you~ I will draw the names next Wednesday.
I am sure there may be some vintage french pages in both packages - have I mentioned that I came home with a "few" very old books?
Have a lovely Thursday mes amies~

deep sigh, for the beauty of paris.
lovelove
your photography.
: )
Loving these photos, Kimberly - so beautiful! :)
Gorgeous Photos, didn't you just feel like you could walk around constantly taking pics? I mean seriously!
My sister used to live a stones throw from the Rhine and we'd head over to France (in the Alsace Region) and the little villages were all just gorgeous. She told me they actually have Contests every year for floral landscaping.
The towns can actually win money to improve their displays for the Next year! What a concept!
I'd love to win your "destash!" I already follow and will post on my blog!
Hugs,
Shell

Love the flower photos. Since I adore flowers, that was one of my most favorite things about living in Paris. I had my favorite florist in the 5th arrondissement called Thalie, and I would buy a bouquet every week - it was my big splurge! Your giveaway sounds wonderful.
I have been visiting Paris with you..through your beautiful photos. Thanks for the fun!
Gorgeous flowers...just the way I dreamed Paris would be. Count me in as a follower in your fabulous giveaway!
xoxo

Beautiful photos! Thanks for a chance at your giveaway...already follow along (I wouldn't want to miss a thing! :))
Love all your Paris photos and notes - hopefully I can go there someday - I think I'm going to have to get a passport soon! Until then, I'll have to continue to work on my own rose bushes which I have had good luck so far especially considering I live in a hot desert!
Please add me to your giveaway list!

The photos of the florist are simply stunning Kimberly, your photography is amazing. I hope that you passed these fabulous skills to Ange then she can teach me. Mille mercis for sharing your fabulous photos of your trip, you girls really did have a fun time.
The people portraits are amongst my favourites and are something that I have not been able to do living full time here but when we go to a village where they do not know us I plan to take a few of the locals myself :-)

Reading your post and looking at your photographs is almost as good as being there. And we have great grey salt caramels here in Seattle at Fran's Chocolate. My favorites!
What a lovely gesture you are making by giving away your excess crafting supplies and gracing someone with them! Please include me in your give away.
Those photos and those bouquets are amazing!!! Just heavenly!
