Not much time today, but just enough to do quickly a post :-)

The following pictures are of a new item in my collection. Last saturday I bought a nice old chair. Will have to redo the textile, but thats the only thing, the wood is in perfect condition.

Hope you like it!!!

News

Today i got 4 new items, Corinthian silver columns. There are just wonderful, They aren't very ancient, but that's not a bad thing. They have a lot of style and will make every table just look sophisticated. Just on my living room table or on a commode they will be also gracefully.

Don't you agree?

Cold outside, warm inside

Today was a very hard day, sick and at the office. So i have to stay in bed this weekend. Not a pleasant thing, but i don't want to be sick during the week. So here is a picture i made today of my fireplace in my bedroom. The good side is that i can blog a lot from out my bed, so i will do my best this weekend.

Hope you enjoy the picture.

Portraits

Don't know what i have with portraits but I am always attracted to them. If i have to choose between a landscape or a portrait I know what will be the first choice. They always have a sort of mystery. Why was it made, for which occasion??? Most of them we will never know because they have no name or history. They are anonymous, the person disappeared but isn't forgotten. I know it's very romantic thinking, but I like it.

Here are some i have in my possession. They are not all mystery people because one is of my grandmother when she was a little girl :-). And the last portrait is one i made of myself when i was still a student.

Ancient French Architecture

Don't we all love it? I am sure I do :-) Nobody will say no to a nice French stone mansion or even a "hotel" in Paris. Like we didn't won the lottery yesterday let us dream a bit.

A wile ago i found these beauty's in an Antique shop in Antwerp.

One is a frame in my living room and all the other are well put away in a big map. One day when i will have more room and more wall space i will frame them all.

Hope you like them!!!
