Lidi's beautiful basket

Hi all. My week got off to a great start as my beautiful Lidi Stroud/Basketcase Miniatures  picnic basket arrived today. If you don't follow Lidi's blog, a) you should, and b) she had a give-away of this little basket and I WON!!! It arrived today and was promptly sat in it's future home, my French shop kitchen. It needs some styling (well, more so the kitchen accessories) to make it look like they are just about to pack the basket for a picnic, but even so it looks so stunning. Thank you Lidi, it is truly amazing and I feel very lucky. Thank you! (Sorry, photos taken at night so they're a bit terrible. Will style this up and take some more photos!)

      Hi Jodi. This is my much neglected French shop, which I started way back when I started my blog. I still adore it, but it needs finishing up. And lots of accessories! Xx

    Lidii's basket look right at home in its new location Shannon and I love the look of your french kitchen which I have't seen before, so I am eagerly looking forward to seeing more photos of both! :D

      Hi Elizabeth. Nice to hear you like my French kitchen! I started this house when I started my blog, so it is sitting in my spare room about 90% complete. I need to have a crack at getting a few last things done on it. It is essentially Lea Frisoni's maison. I love it so much! Xx

      I really enjoy seeing the different interpretations of the Lea House and so I'm going to dig into your achieves and get acquainted with yours. :)

      Hi Irene. The basket does really suit the feel of this house. I think you'll have to go a ways back to read about this house! I do need to post a few updates on it. Actually I need to do a little rearranging and then posting! Hope you are well.
