Napoleon's Macaron,watercolor on Etsy, 5.5" x 7.5"
Do you think Napoleon ate macarons? I called FactCheckers and they say, "NON!"

I spotted that Napoleon bust at Christie's European Decorative Arts exhibit on Saturday. Wouldn't these divine Laduree POP Religieuses make just the best pillows in the world?

French Tapestry Chaise,watercolor on Etsy, 5.5" x 7.5"

And wouldn't that pillow look just swell on this French tapestry chaise/chair dog gone it? All this immersion in Marie-Antoinette and other Frenchie 18th century decor, has made me decidedly dissatisfied with my new IKEA SOLSTA sofa and other IKEA accoutrements/stuff :(
Visiting Christie's only brought home to me again...

...that I need Maison Jansen consoles like the above and what-have-yous to really do my job here at PB right!
This bed would be a good starting point wouldn't it? One of the grand things about visiting an auction exhibition (unlike a museum) is you can jump on the bed and try it out for size!
Or these triplet chairs!
And don't cha just know they had those pink hydrangeas/hortensias at Christie's? You betcha they did!
I'm thinking I'll start the re-do of my apartment with this Marie-Antoinette dish towel (torchon)for 16 euros (ouch) The big question I'm asking myself IS did Marie-Antoinette ever do dishes? Hmmm...food for thought
BONNE MERCREDI!
