| Spring cleaning in Burlap Luxe home |
 |
| Florals of white |
 |
| Dusted grey chandelier in the entry. |
 |
| Weathered French floral cans. |
 |
| French and aged against a white canvas. |
 |
| Pure and simple. |
 |
| A side table I built from salvaged aged woods, and I adore the less then perfectness. |
 |
| White is the colour. |
 |
| A French chest of drawers serves as my coffee table with perfect storage at hand. |
 |
| Burlap Luxe Wire Art~ Created by Dore (me) That April Morn, and French Wire Baskets Are Filled. Most of you know my wire art and the joy of bending, twisting, and creating new pieces always excite the new beginnings of the delicate pieces they become. |
 |
| Little spring, sweet we found. |
 |
| Laid eggs in every nest made. Wire gently bent back and fro, welded a sweet handle to hold. |
 |
| Tucked in its sweet nesting a Lavender sachet pilliow sweetly made and holiday gifted from my sweet friend Elizabeth Maxson The Adventures of Elizabeth How sweet the smell of spring. |
 |
| After a piece of wire takes shape, it then takes on a bit more with a crusty white with aged finish. |
 |
| Another wire piece I created is dancing Pia bleu. It was created to look like our Italian Greyhound puppy now 8 months old. The wire piece was created for one of my theatre stage performances where I create mini French theatres of song and dance. |
 |
| Wearing her bun and wire crown and a tattered grey dog collar she dances this spring holiday. |
 |
| Little nests of hay. |
 |
| Eggs wrapped in burlap twine and dried roses, with tattered white cloth loose bows. |
 |
| Perfectly tied for the nicest nest. |
 |
| Advance the flight in me, Easter Wings. |
 |
| My wire cage I created from salvage. He wears his crown and feels this day. |

| BurlapLuxe Via Good and Pure Prairie Style. When imagining a prairie life one might invision dusty lands with tumbling tumbleweeds. "weathered homes buried under layers of milk paint, and sagging stained of tea colored wallpapers." Farmhouses that have barely been touched in what seemed like decades of authentic history. |

| Burlap Luxe Kitchen Gilded Stored away a French gild mirror of silvers, gold and bronze has found its way to hanging now in my kitchen. I have had this vintage beauty through many moving wars and it has surprisingly taken a few beatings with lasting beauty. |
 |
| Gilded with authentic French history. |
 |
| I have added the elegance of a French gilded mirror to the simple living space of my country white distressed kitchen. The cabinet underneath the mirror displays a softer side of collecting pieces I love, and live with. |
 |
| I have been painting and distressing farmhouse chairs adding a bit more rustic to the elegance. |
 |
| Vintage birdcages scattered about soften the harder edges of elegance; welcoming spring. |
 |
| Thank you Lin, for creating this tiny pen ink print nest and eggs. It is loved right where it can be seen. |
 |
| Birdcages designed to play their part in my French country house. |
 |
| Rural and Rustic |
 |
| Comfortable with the characteristic pieces that are almost painfully rural up against the gilded mirror |
 |
| Decorative Details |
 |
| The beauty it added to my kitchen sitting area. |
 |
| Inspiring details in unexpected places. |
