French Inspired Artwork by Susan Newberry Designs

Although I have never been to France, I love all things French.  If you are familiar with my store, you will have noticed that a lot of my designs have a French theme.  Today I thought I would share some of them with you. 

Did you know that it's only 3383 miles from Atlanta to Paris?

My love affair with Paris

For years I have wanted to go to Paris.  That hasn’t happened yet but I hope to visit France next year.  I have always loved all things French, in particular French country design.  French Country design, inspired by the beautiful homes of Provence, incorporates distressed woodwork, wrought iron, and soft colors.  The style marries rustic country with old world charm and is comfortable and charming.

The popularity of French Country design can be seen everywhere on the web.  I thought I would share some of my finds with you.

Here is one of my latest designs:

Can you believe this is a manhole cover?  Reminds me of a rose window!

  

Don’t you just love this stunning French window?

 Here is an interesting building:

 

And last but not least – This story would not be complete without the Eiffel Tower.  It’s hard to believe that when it was built, the people of Paris were not happy.  It was only meant to be temporary but Parisians fell in love with it and well, the rest is history as they say.

Well that's it for now. Until next time…

Think Pink for Breast Cancer Awareness Month

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.  I heard on the radio this week that 1 in 8 women will get breast cancer during her life.  I'm sure you will agree with me when I say that number is too high.  What can we do?  For starters check out National Breast Cancer Association's website for more information about how you can help. 

Last Friday, my granddaughter had to wear pink to school  in honor of National Breast Cancer month and won first place in her kindergarten class for best dressed.  What do you think?  The microphone was her prize!

Today's blog will be a tribute to pink.  Here are a few of my favorite pink things that I found on Pinterest, Zibbet, and Etsy.

No one said it better than Audrey Hepburn.  I Believe in Pink from snewberrydesigns.
