I'm a happily married mum of two boys, aged 17 and 19, and as a family we moved to France eleven years ago. My husband works for a French company, I teach English to French people aged 6 - 60, and English reading and writing to the English-speaking children of the area. We are part of an English speaking church in Lyon. I love to shop for French vintage lace, fabric and household items, and to combine them with my British and global treasures in interesting ways.
Thanks for coming over to my British-meets-French Vintage blog! Please leave a comment - I love to hear from anyone who takes the time to read my posts, and I try to pop back and visit your blogs whenever I can.

Reality Check
I am not a perfect mother or housewife. There is dog hair under the sofa and the boys eat with their elbows on the table, however much they're nagged. I just assume you'd rather see the pretty stuff!

Cute!
Son 2 found this adorable little landscape in moss yesterday evening. He added a Monopoly hotel and the whole lot is now beeing watched over by an angel in our Advent Nativity Scene.
Quite clearly the boy is working towards taking over your blog. Such lovely photos and a very well thought out scene as well. Nice to see a boy interested in artistic things.
Just delightful! (Just read your slipper posts and now feel very guilty as Gorgeous Girl has had a hole in her slipper since Christmas day last year - I'll see how yours turns out and then may borrow your idea!) Wend

Clever boy! I've always loved playing with moss and stones for my crib! Now that I'm a bit older..I use it for pots of winter bulbs!
Well done to him on his photography!
I have always loved moss and also lichens.
Have a good weekend!
;-)
What a darling little holiday vignette! =)
Very sweet - he is obviously following his mother's example in making, not buying!
