Woody Allen's film, Midnight in Paris, is like a love letter to the city of Paris. The cinematography is breathtaking, and I just can't get enough of the leisurely opening scenes showing Paris in all its splendor.

| Midnight in Paris |
I love the old world charm of Paris, and I love the white and faded colors of vintage shabby French decor. The only place this look fits well into my home, though, is my loft; I paint almost everything up there white, and if it stays still long enough, I put a French label on it. What is it about French labels? The label can translate in English to Muddy Acres Hog Farm and Manure Factory, but if it's written in the French language it looks beautiful. N'est-ce pas?
So here are a couple of French Label pillows I made for my loft.
One is of linen with a French label iron-on transferred directly onto the linen. The other is burlap with the French label iron-on transferred to a square of unbleached muslin, then sewn onto the burlap. Both French label graphics are free from The Graphics Fairy.
The Graphics Fairy has many more beautiful French Label graphics, and I have many more pillows, trays, boxes, coffee tables, and... well... you get the picture. If it will stay put long enough, I'll put a French label on it!
If you have a mother who likes Paris like I do, the video of Midnight in Paris might make a lovely Mother's Day gift.
Thanks for stopping by today!
I'm linking my pillows to the Pillowpalooza link party sponsored by It All Started With Paint , Thistlewood Farm, and The Cottage Market, where you just might find more
gorgeous pillow inspiration in one place than you've ever seen before.
