I shopped this past week and found this great Paris de Cafe Sign for my kitchen. Thank you Vintage Shop in Morris one of my fave shops to visit. Never walk out of Cassie's great shop without something wonderful to take home.
 |
| This sweet sign is stenciled on an old chippy mirror and then it was framed in black. It looked really sweet with the black frame but I had this really chippy vintage frame that I have wanted to put up somewhere and thought hmmmmm...... |
 |
| I think the vintage chippy frame gives this Cafe sign just a little more character than just the plain black frame. |
 |
| This new Cafe de Paris just gives a little french flair to the farmhouse kitchen. |
Flower Market Vignette:
 |
| I shopped the house to make up this little vignette by my window in the dining room. |
 |
| I had everything. The picket fence piece, the little french stool and the french garden flower gathering basket. So got a little summer vignette going on by the window looking out to the back garden. Did it all for $0 dollars spent. Thank you for your visit. Kris :) |

ReplyDeleteSuch a cute sign!
Kris, I love your frame the best. Your kitchen is so sweet. Hope you are having good weather and enjoying your outdoor area. xoxo,Susie
ReplyDeleteYour new sign really fits your style now that you've framed it in the pretty carved frame, Kris! It looks like it was made for that spot!
ReplyDeletelove the white frame best, kris! and the flower market vignette is just so cute! (and free is priceless:)
ReplyDeleteKris,
ReplyDeleteYes, frame perfection! I love your new find, I especially love foxed mirror that's aged to resemble mercury glass and reflection is muted. We are trying to find someone to come install antiqued mirror that will add light but not too much reflection as a backsplash in our kitchen. Not being successful with finding someone :( Your summer flower vignette is adorable, your house always looks happy.
XO,
Vera
Ooooooooo, I love your new Frenchy sign & the way you displayed it, Kris. VERY pretty! You always have so many great ideas!
ReplyDeleteHave a happy one,
Lin

ReplyDeleteYour new Frenchy sign is soooooo fabulous...the frame is just perfect! Your dining room vignette is very pretty too!

Amazing the difference changing a frame can make - love your new sign and that bit of black in your kitchen.
ReplyDeleteKris,
ReplyDeleteCute sign but I swear, as soon as I saw the photo I thought, "hmm, Kris usually goes for shabbier (referring to the frame)...." I should've know better! Looks great.

Hi Kris. That sign is a beauty and I really love it in the old white frame. And then that frame in the center of another old frame, that is just stunning and an idea that I might have to pilfer!! Congrats on your kitchen article in the previous post. I just love all the things that you do and I don't think I've ever seen your total kitchen. So pretty and charming..Happy Week..Judy
ReplyDeleteOh how sweet! I love it and I want some signs to go around my house. Just can't decide what.
ReplyDeleteKris, love the sign,and the white frame really adds a great dimension! The vignette is adorable, and gotta love $0 spent! (love the flower market sign, too! :)
ReplyDeleteSusan
I Love $0 vignettes :) I'm still working on that e-transport machine. Be careful...some morning you may wake up to an empty house... Blessings, Cindy

Love the new sign, Kris, and it looks great in that chippy frame!
ReplyDeleteLove the sign with the vintage white chippy frame. Love, love, love the flower market vignette.
ReplyDelete~Cindy
Love that flower market vignette! But, there's really nothing I don't like about your home. Don't know how you keep all of that white white!
ReplyDeleteLove that new piece also.
Judy
Kris- I love that sign. It looks much better in your white repurposed frame. Loving your dining room vignette, too, Kris~ That is a really nice sized dining room. As always, your house looks beautiful! xo Diana
ReplyDeleteYou really took it to a new level placing it in your chippy frame.
ReplyDeleteI love how the frame looks with your great mirror sign...really lovely!
ReplyDeleteOh, Kris...when I saw your comment today I realized it's been ages since I've been by. And I saw the title of your post and I thought, my gosh, she's in Paris and I didn't even know about it! lol!! Anyway, I love the sign! I've only been to Morris once for the French Hen event and only saw a bit of the town. I'd love to go back.
ReplyDeleteYour window vignette is so sweet! I LOVE that picket fence!! I always imagined I'd live in a house with one all around it. My tastes have changed...now I want black wrought iron and a big double gate at the bottom of a long drive!! Ha! This rain and gloom is making me daffy!! :)
XO,
Jane
I loved the sign and it looks so much better in the new frame. I also like the vignette in the dining room. Your home looks terrific.
ReplyDeleteHope your weekend weather is great.
