despite my bad luck with Parisians, i do love the idea of Paris and its architecture. Over the past few years, i've had my eye on Parisian dormer windows made into mirrors. for a while, wisteria and anthropologie had something in that genre, but they were too expensive or enormous or just too machine-made looking. (don't get me wrong, wisteria still has an amazing selection of mirrors!)
in seeking the design term for these amazing fenetres, i learned they are called "Oeil de boeuf" or "eye of the bull"... how wonderfully french does that sound??!
here's a cute sample of a french dormer window at clayton gray interiors for about $450.
here's a fabulous zinc number from the elemental garden.
(btw, the elemental garden has these amazing french 1930s metal chairs, which would be perfect for a breakfast nook with a rustic wood farm table, non? je reve!)
ok, back to my eyes of beefs:
ooh la la la la la la.
are you drooling yet? if you are, then you know how i reacted when i saw this in TJ Maxx today for way less than a hundred bucks:
sigh. it fit in our dresser nook perfectly. i'll hang it later this week but needed a little help. some people are scared of discount stores, but these budget-friendly finds keep me on the hunt!
