Bastille Day...............



It`s Bastille day today the French independence holiday. It commemorates the storming of the Bastille prison which began the French Revolution on July 14, 1789.

So it is a national holiday and it was brocante heaven! I had a wonderful day truffling and found a shabby chic early child mannequin dated around 1850 and I am over the moon with it! I will photograph it for you tomorrow.
But............at the other end of the age scale these floral oilcloth bags were very cheap and selling like hot cakes this morning....
When I looked closer I could see why!!!!
Cheeky!!!!!

It will be fireworks everywhere tonight and great celebrations. Paris will host a huge event where traditionally the Eiffel Tower will be illuminated..............
But we are going to stay closer to home as one of the beaches has a concert and display and.....................
I don`t want to lose my head!!!!

A demain mes belles!
