Stories Collected While Living in France
The foot of an armoire step in front of me, wanting to waltz into my living room!
"But where I asked? I don’t have the space for another armoire."
"If you love me you’ll find a place!"
"The things antiques will say to get under your skin and into your house!"

Corey,
Your armoire is gorgeous! You must stop teasing me like this!!!! I would love looking at it all day. I wouldn’t even mind stubbing my toe on it once in a while…I would forgive it!
Excellent philosophy – If you love me, you will find a place! I’ll have to use that on my husband the next time I want something really, REALLY baaaddddd. LOL
Isn’t it a bit like having kids? You know, never a good time? You do it anyway, though, and it all works out!
Beautiful armoire.
Blessings to you my darling one.
Happy Sunday on this cold cold cold winter January morning in
Ontario Canada.
Beautiful as always.
Love you
Jeanne
The dance in France…
It took just a glance.
Instant romance?
It may require a cash advance..
This is high finance.
Corey’s in a hypnotic trance.
Again!
Was it happy chance?
Seduced by an armoire? I say go ahead and have the affair.
I think you need to listen
to these tiny voices.
They have such wisdom.
This could waltz into my living room anyday.
Oh yes…antiques can be very persuasive!
so??? is it in your home yet?
Corey Responds,
No, we parted with ways with a hasty goodbye! He was so mad he slammed the door shut! Armoires can be so emotional!
An abandoned house spoke out to me, I loved it and was able to understand its language. All things can tell stories, though we don’t always need to bring them home…..
It’s so gorgeous, how could anyone resist! Well done, Corey! I’m sure you will find the perfect spot in your lovely home.
Corey Responds:
As much as I wanted to dance with it in my living room. I had to kiss it goodbye at the dancefloor. It will be a good memory!
Who would be without?! There is always room for one more treasure.
A friend of mine who loves to hit the antique and thrift stores once said: “NEVER say ‘I don’t know where I’ll put it’ — you’ll always find a place”.
She later hauled home a huge Hoosier cabinet in the back of her SUV.
It just wanted to get it’s foot in the door…
Corey Reponds: That is a good one liner…but once a foot gets in…oh la la!!
There is just too much out there that is just so fabulous! I would be broke if I lived in France!
You get to be around so many antiques all the time, how wonderful!! Thanks for sharing them all. This one looks very beautiful!
It is stunning. I hope it did go live with you? I am a person who makes purchases I love and worried about where it is going to fit later…
very cheeky! I found an old church like that on our way to holidays one year…we passed it year after year and then one time, it was for sale…but where do you put a church!! I cried the following year when we drove past and it was sold 🙁 I still go past it every January on our way up north…sigh
Lucky armoire!! My feets aren’t as pretty, but I’ll stick them out.
oooh lovely lookin legs!
And what a beautiful foot it is
CHamara
We always do find a place for a love in our life.
Say yes! 🙂
sexy legs!!
Which one of the two waltzed “comme un pied”?
Under pressure by a pushy armoire! I love it…I hope you found a place for it as bossy as it was 🙂
That armoire should not be left at home! Soooo beautiful!
I LOVE armoires!! I would put one in every room if I could. I hope you bought it. It’s just so beautiful, and I can only just see the bottom.
This particular armoire wants to dance!
It is gorgeous!!!
Come on, you must have room…
Oh my, I like the look of that armoire Corey!! I’m needing an armoire just like that at home!
