Visiting antiques fairs, antiques dealers or interior design stores, sometimes it happens that you are so enchanted by a wonderful piece of decoration, as a vase, a plate, a candlestick, a silver object,…that you discovered between all those gorgeous items. You fell in love with it and this beauty seems so precious to you,that you promptly take it home!
You can’t wait to give it the appropriate place you had in mind! But suddenly this beautiful item doesn’t ‘speak’ anymore, it ‘says’ nothing at all!!!
It is awaiting entourage, to be embraced by other objects.
Do you recognize this?!
Sometimes we need a little help, a little inspiration to give the new object the attention it deserves.
That is why I love to file images of beautiful compositions. Whenever I come home with a new acquired object I love to browse into this file. It really helps me to create the most wonderful still .
Some of my filed images here could maybe even help you whenever you are searching for the best entourage of your new acquired thing of beauty.

Brigitte is also a master in creating the most wonderful compositions! Take a look at the Garnier website.
