Thank you, mum: French Blue

Love makes the world go round. Thanks to all mothers everywhere, for without them, there would be no us and no love in the world to speak of.

Mother’s Day acknowledges all those fabulous women who devote a lifetime to putting family first; it’s the one day they come first.
French Blue, emporium of all things European, provides beautiful inspiration.

For her home, French Vintage grain-sack cushions mixed with cushions from Morocco add a dash of Moorish rococo, while ceramics from Spain, Mexico, Sweden and France are a visual delight.

A pure wool or silk scarf from Amsterdam swathing her in glorious colours, teamed with an Ilse Jacobsen raincoat from Denmark and French Vintage grain-sack handbag brings an ecstatic smile.

Adorn her with fine jewellery from Italy, handcrafted necklaces from Israel, or silver earrings, bracelets and rings from Mexico to capture her heart. Scent her bathroom with candles from Cornwall, wafting fragrances such as Black Pomegranate, Cucumber and Black Pepper, Bluebell Wood and Dewberry.

After bathing in French soaps and bath-salts, she can read a stunning décor book from the Continent before closing her eyes. Oh, what blissful dreams she will have.
