The list grows

Check out this great vintage homegoods shop. It's about 15 minutes from Duras in the town of Eymet, where I have been to the market and to shop several times. This is one of the many places I am including on my electronic "Decorate Duras" list. Lucky for me there are a number of cute shops like this and I have also discovered an Annie Sloane stockist nearby in Miramont de Guyenne--just in case I want to buy a litre of a special color to paint inside my wall cabinet.  


On a more practical note, I have identified the shop where I can buy custom made window screens called "moustiquaires," in French. Here's the thing. The word for window screens is based on the word for mosquitoes: moustique, so, admittedly they have mosquitoes in France. But nobody in France has any screens on their windows--go figure!
