In a normal house, if you put a puppet or a broken papier mache doll in the corner, people think you are mad. But if Madeleine Castaing does it, it becomes a Bohemian interior! We don't have a similar personality in Britain like her. Well, maybe the late Dame Beryl Bainbridge!A Super Dilettantehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02640893790909916004[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6543457325368639597.post-62940743523473969842010-11-08T08:44:34.596-08:002010-11-08T08:44:34.596-08:00This looks fantastic.

I still have the tear pages from a shelter magazine that published her apartment that now graces the cover of the book.<br /><br />And, I'm so tickled to know that the LaDuree that I visited this summer on the corner of Bonaparte and Rue du Jacob is where her famous shop was. And, I can now see you walking along with street on your way to work.<br /><br />~ ElizabethAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15395215787881578608[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6543457325368639597.post-65710350874837396772010-11-03T08:58:17.918-07:002010-11-03T08:58:17.918-07:00Diane,
