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!
What a sweet little creche! Nice to see kids doing something that doesn't involve electronics too. BTW, I am looking to exchange North American mags for UK Country Living or French Marie Claire so if you might be interested, pop over and leave a comment at my http://www.quiltingwithjanet.blogspot.com

That is the dinkiest little Nativity scene I have ever seen. I bet that required a very steady hand.
Good things come in small packages... isn't that one of those old sayings?
Cute!
That's really cute! All that in one tiny matchbox! :-)

It is hard to believe that the entire scene was in that small box. Son #2 sure does have quite a bit of determination, bless his heart.
Have a nice weekend.
I absolutely adore it, and I can see it must have been fiddly on the fingers! I really enjoy nativity scenes (in any form). x
What a very tiny scene. He must have very nimble fingers!
Love the teeny tiny Nativity, needed a very steady hand.
Love tablecloth too.
