Bonjour!

Matthew and I were lucky enough to get a couple of days in beautiful Paris this weekend.

 It was wonderful on so many levels...

...the fact that we had one day decided to go and more-or-less only a few days later were there strolling along the Parisian cobbled streets, stopping for lunches of wine and bread and cheese, watching the world go by...

 ...the fact that we were having much needed 'us' time for the first time in far too long a time, walking for miles without little voices of "i'm tired"..."i'm bored"...

 ...the fact that we were celebrating (a few months belatedly) 20 years marriage revisiting a place that had been our first trip away together nearly 25 years previously...

What was not quite so wonderful was my severe attack of vertigo climbing to the first level of The Eiffel Tower and having to drag Matthew back down, spoiling his exciting moment. Well, you can't have everything, but I think despite that, even he'd agree it was a very special weekend and here's hoping we can do it again before another 25 years...

New York, New York

We brought you London. And then we brought you Paris. Now it's the turn of another of our favourite cities...NEW YORK, NEW YORK!

With all the favourite bits of this amazing city depicted in the usual quirky Famille Summerbelle style, this is an amazing addition to the growing range.

Choose between plum or midnight blue - we couldn't, so we thought we'd leave it to you!
Just click here to find it in the shop.

From London to Paris

First there was this...

And now there is this.

What was I thinking? How I could possibly have one without the other?

(Thanks, Julie, for being so amazingly creative and clever and producing yet another item that is already set for being a best seller)
