Stories Collected While Living in France
Because it is almost Christmas,
Because there are only two presents under my Christmas tree that fell twice,
Because I found something that I think will stump you,
Because when I go to bed too late and my mind is too mushy too write…
Then it is a very good day to announce a Guessing Game tomorrow.
photo: What-nots found at the flea market. Aren’t those Doll house candle holders pretty cool?
I love you and your treasure troves are divine.
I am so proud and happy you are a friend of mine.
Merry Christmas Sugar Plum
I love you

They are indeed in fact it is a gloriously enigmatic photograph.
Amazing candle holders!
Just sneaking in a “I’m still here” comment… and as always loving your heart here.
Oh goodie!!!!! Can’t wait!!!
Yippeeeee!!!! I LOVE your guessing games.
And I especially love the frame with the flowers on the corners.
Love the candleholders but I covet the paper. What is it with old paper that gets my heart racing?

Yesterday I received an e-mail from Stampington about your fabulous finds for sale…………..and they were already SOLD OUT, boo hoo! I wanted them, they were gorgeous! Hope you have more later.
Meanwhile, this little vignette is awesome Corey – what great paper. Looking forward to the Guessing Game.
l am always amazed at the beauty of your photos and interested in how you seem to find these unique and wonderful treasures 🙂
A game… sounds like fun.
How do you do it? Come up with wonderful photos and such good finds.
I am very bad at games…Trivial Pursuit is the only one I am good at.
Hmmmm!!!perhaps…well we will see.
Love the miniature candlesticks…love the frame even more! You find such wonderful treasures!
Hooray guess game! Love the candle holders, you find the bestest things (agress about your photo, you have a great eye for composition and styling).

I hope I’m going to win …
See you tomorrow for the guessing game
What a gorgeous photograph! I haven’t encountered one of your guessing games before, but judging by the enthusiasm in your comments, I’m in for a treat!

Oh I am so terrible at your guessing games !!!! So I’m going to just go ahead and make my guess now !
CRYSTAL LEMON REAMER !!!!
ha!
I love your flea market finds and can’t wait
to play your game Corey! I really love those
candlestick holders wow! Pinkie Denise
I love the candlesticks! My Mom made me a doll house from a kit when I was about 8 years old. She shed many tears over that ridiculous kit… it came in about a million pieces and none of them were labeled! It’s looking a bit rickity these days but I made her promise she would keep it for me so I can “renovate” it. Now I know who to come to when I’m looking for the perfect candlesticks for the fireplace!
You hoo! Guessing game for me and you!!
I love your guessing games and I am always a total flub with them. Well, a girl can hope can’t she?
Hi, congratulations for your blog and …..
bye bye from Italy
Oh Corey, I’ve been reading all the posts I’ve missed lately. Of course, you have hundreds of comments. You’ve made me smile and cry this morning. Mission accomplished, I think!
I hope your holidays are wonderful!
Hi Corey,
Love the candle holders!!
Can’t wait for the guessing game.

What a beautiful photograph, as always : )
That is a gorgeous picture frame, Corey! See ya tomorrow – this time I’m gonna WIN, just you wait and see! ;p
The frame is beautiful, a work of art in itself.
The bad news – I’ve been away sick with a lowdown mean and nasty bug and have missed so much.
The good news – there’s so much to catch up on with you here Corey. 🙂
And I’ve recovered just in time for another mind blowing romper stomper round of a stumper, guessing game! Yippie!
I love today’s vignette – the worn frame and those charming candle sticks.
Back to resting my gray cells now in preparation for the hair pulling out tomorrow. 😉

Happiest of holidays to you!
i’m not asking for much and becoming stumped only inspires.
the mini chandeliers are gorgeous!
i still have a complete tiny table set left from our doll house, cherishing it like delicate cristal…
thank you for remembering, corey!
although i’m home late, i will not miss your guessing party tomorrow!
Corey, I love your blog, I devour it. I ordered some papillotes and love the story you told about them. It makes them all the more special. Thank you for always brightening my day, you are like an angel!

“Our” Corey!!!
*Naughty* Corey! ,-) You didn’t tell us!
What?
I just opened my new ‘Victoria’ magazine and what did I find, but an article on “our” Corey’s lovely old French home. Oh I am so excited, I might just jump out of my skin.

What a gorgeous vignette, Corey…you really know how to set a scene. Love both the mini candle holders and the frame!
Corey, I was just about to say, (the doll house candle holders) are waaaay cool, the frame is awesome too!
Ohhhhhhh, another guessing game…this is going to be such FUN!
Corey,
I’m a poor guesser, but I’ll stop-in to check it out.

Another guessing game.
I love them 🙂
Voilà un adorable cadre !
Hmmm, round two…they hung from roofs to let the water drip from them to make perfect icicles. 🙂 I love your guessing games. Can’t wait to find out what they really are.
Teresa
That frame is beautiful! Just a gorgeous photo altogether
