La Fleur d’oranger π from Chanel. Don’t these perfume touches remind you…
Of Matisse paper cutouts? π
Remind me of Winslow Homer orange π watercolor
Yesterday I went to the annual Paris Jardins, Jardin show .
Always 4 days in the beginning of June. Summer has arrived.
The garden show always takes place in the Tuileries jardins. This is the 18th year & my 5th attendance
Designed FYI by the renown French landscape designer, ANDRE LE NOTRE
The show is on through Sunday π
Bouygues Immobilier gave out delicious, healthy snacks and basil seeds for your petit balcon if you have one…I wish π€
You can order authentic chaises πͺ from Edmond & Fils for your petit balcon
They provide all the green chaises we love ❤️ so much at the Tuileries and other parcs.
Plus they made my miniature green chaise. I proudly showed the grandson my chair watercolor ✏️ ☺️
I talked shop π¨ with flower artist, Jean-FranΓ§ois Gaulthier from Pont Aven.
His first year at Jardins, Jardin. He’s done flower murals and even painted a harpsichord!
Gaultier will be at La JournΓ©e de la Rose πΉ at Domaine de Chaalis next weekend
These are called la rose dentelle because of the little bites π¦· in the petals? Or maybe because they are lacy?
You could sign up to become a fleuriste. I came home after 3+ hours, exhausted & happy with peonies πΈ to paint π¨
I put up my legs for 20 minutes & felt instantly refreshed (*my newest health tipπ)
Don’t miss out on Jardins, Jardin if you’re in Paris
Thank you PBers for all the LOVE ❤️ you showed the Paris breakfast post. 15,000 views! More cups of coffee ☕️ coming up π

ReplyDeleteYes! I would love one of those mini-greenhouses. The more ornate the better. It would become my tea house. A small table, two chairs (Edmond & Fils?), flowery china, lots of flowers (preferably peonies!). Heaven. Lars

ReplyDeleteYikes on getting to Chaalis! RER D to Fosses…but then what??

I know π€ I have not figured it out yet
DeleteMaybe they will send a limo ☺️
I go NOWHERE when it’s hot…just can’t tolerate the heat anymore. I try to get everything accomplished during the cool morning hours.
ReplyDeleteBUT, I’d brave the heat for Jardin Jardin!
Yes but there was oodles of shady areas π³
