The Brocante is coming to town ,are you?

I had so much fun collecting these treasures back in the Sunny South of France this summer! It makes the rainy Oregon days seem bright and warm pulling them out and smiling at the memories they bring back. I love the smell of old books and the thought of who will be in the old frames this time around . I love the pattissiere labels and think it delightful to wonder the sweet treats they will find their way into. I managed to find a little 19th century fabric to put on some old french towels and made some Lavendar sachets as well. I love the little treasures from the Brocantes of France. They make my heart skip a beat or two and I hope they do the same for you................

You're Invited

A dream and a trip to France to make Charlottes Brocante come to fruition. I went to France alone to discover all the things I love and bring them home with me, but the best thing I found was a friend. A intimate and lovely brocante loving friend. She is small enough I could have stuck her in my pocket to bring her home with me .Reluctantly I left her behind in body but not in spirit. I was reunited with my dear Corey love in California last week. When I was in France she took me into her home out of the goodness of her heart .I was terribly lonely when she found me and a dinner in Provence turned into 10 days of dancing ,cooking,laughter and shopping. She dried the tears from my eyes and washed my feet and tucked me into a billowy bed of old linen in her home in the South of France. Magic I tell you pure magic.(I will tell of her Precious husband Yann and beautiful daughter Chelsea)This store is the culmination of a journey of believing in your dreams, even though I discovered the best dreams are the ones you never knew you had and they come to life in full color..... and your living them. See you at the Brocante....
