Vintage Pastilles Tin


This is the little French Pastilles tin that got away. I had seen this quite a while ago on Dreamy Whites and really wanted to purchase it, but unfortunately it sold before I could buy it. I loved how it looked with the red and white butcher's twine. The way Maria creates her vignettes for her photos is so lovely.


But then a couple of weeks ago, I found one from a French vendor on Etsy and was so excited.



I love the blue and white advertising on the tin mixed with the red and white twine. Perfect for a cute little vignette.


I  just want to say that my heart aches for those who lost a loved one in yesterday's horrible tragedy!!
I pray for them all!!

Sincerely~
Melinda

  4. Ah...your vintage French tin is indeed sweet and looks like something that would fit right in... here in my blue and white kitchen!

    We are all overwhelmed with grief at the tragic loss of all those little ones and their teachers.
    I don't know how those families will cope...truly overwhelming. They will need all our prayers.

    Take care Melinda, Laura

  9. It's the little things in life that make us smile that seem even more important after such loss.
    Your photos are even more beautiful, if that is possible!
