French Laundry Style

I'm talking about collecting vintage cards with four seasons, history, or fairy tale designs and pairing them with whimsical shaped cookies, wrapped beautifully in clear paper, with bows, tags, and bells. Hanging cards on stretched ribbons, by using clothespins, especially above the fire place for Christmas or near windows for Halloween, Thanksgiving, Valentine's day, Easter, Norouz, and birthdays...

Flowers in buckets, or fake flowers in baskets, dried flower or fruit wreaths, antique country style figurines of chickens, roosters, bunnies, lamb, chicks, fairies, wands, haloes, wings, shells, mermaids can be collected in many artistic forms.

Fashion plays a role in all things since a pretty hat shaped sugar cookie decorated with dainty little daisies is as charming as tea towels with days of the week on them.
