This is one of my many french inspired Christmas tree ornaments. I buy a "Noel" ornament every year because one of my daughters is named "Noelle", the French feminine spelling.

Welcome to my world of French inspiration. My French mother and American father wed when he was stationed in France in 1956 and I came along shortly after. My childhood was spent mostly in France, so everything French is like home to me. This is reflected mostly through my decorating, although it carries over into every aspect of my life. I am also an avid scrapbooker and sometimes paper artist. I currently live in Texas with my husband and two daughters who also appreciate the French things in life. Come join my petit monde Francais

Found these beautiful pearls and buttons at an antique mall in Spring, TX while visiting my good friend Mendy. They remind me of my Memere's necklaces I use to play with as a child.
