If I were filthy rich.... I'd buy a crumbling ruin like this somewhere in the French countryside.
 |
| Via Pretty Stuff |
I would restore it...
 |

| Via Segreto |
I would ask Leslie and her team from Segreto to work their magic on the walls.

I would buy beautiful furniture and fittings...
 |
| Via Acquired Objects |
and I hope Debra from Acquired Objects would supply me with some of her exquisite antique tapestries and textiles.
 |
| Via Providence Ltd |
 |
| Via La Brocanteuse |
All the bed linen and table linen would be vintage French from my friend Colette from La Brocanteuse.

| Via Etsy |
Then once everything was set I would send invitations to all of you to come and stay for a week or longer if you could spare the time.
