Life is a blank canvas. You need to throw all the paint on it you can. – Danny Kaye –
Recently, I’ve stayed true to Danny’s teachings, splashing and throwing color around me so enthusiastically that the French expression “Quelle bazar!” (loosely translating into What a mess… ) has characterized my life and existence.
Let’s see how this philosophy fits in with the full house renovation I’m about to attack this summer… Right now I feel I wanna turn absolutely everything upside down. Give away so much from the past, let in some fresh air instead. Poor Heikki, my wingman and trustee with the renovation… He’s in for some turbulence. Luckily, he has the patience of an elephant and the soul of an artist. Both qualities will become handy this summer… Family, however, is wise. Every last man escaping to France for the full summer.
Despite all the bazar, I must confess that right now I prefer, even need to, get out of my comfort zone, no matter how messy it gets. And… Things are moving! There’s a lot of progress on my little plots and plans… I find myself waking up at night with ideas I just have to write down there and then… Or having night time dreams about my daydreams, the ones I can’t talk about yet… But let me just tell you this friends. This moving and shaking feels soooooooooooo good.
Ivory silk top with rose shaped deco in the front, from Paris. Fine, fine long leather 1920’s gloves, Garbo Vintage. Earrings from French antique market. Each piece as comfortable as my own skin :).
A little taste of things to come… I’ve been particularly active in treasure hunting. The determined pursuit of beauties such as these antique silver and marcasite earrings continues. But this time, not for myself..
Will keep you posted!
Many kisses,
