 Burlap Luxe Home, where the artist lives.

Awaiting the comfort of the season's to
come.



 A season of white linen and natural washed grey.
 La Vie est Belle

The elegant art of living 
in French style
by
~ Henrietta Heald

Thank You VERA,
"Row Homes and Cobblestones"
For your kind and gentle giving heart.
Vera, adds beauty to your heart of living.



 Further in the art of French living, it's time to
bring what has lived outside amongst the weathering 
sun in.
I am comforted by it's weathered grey.
 
 "L' entente de la nie"
The agreement negates the claim is just.

I live with little design restrictions.
 My French art will be copied to aged tattered paper prints so
my Burlap Luxe etsy shoppers can enjoy my art in their
agreeable homes.
 
 "Profondeur"
The depth of art.
French Women,

I have named this piece...
"Elle regarde"
(She Watches)
 Weathered and washed in grey.
My art signs are found in my Burlap Luxe etsy shop.

My Burlap Luxe signs
A place of gathering, gather together, here we
GATHER.

Weathered and washed in white and grey...
Vintage mahogany floor boards, framed in distressed
weathered grey trim.
 I adore European SEA COTTAGES.
Hand painted in weathered white and distressed grey, and
hangs by a grey advertising chain by aged eye hooks.

 I envision this sign hanging on a sea side hut,
or your "SEA COTTAGE"
 
 My favorite medium is CARTAPESTA paper mache.
Yes, in my Burlap Luxe etsy

Created on weathered wood washed by the grey of age.
Aviary wire, and a garland wreath of paper mache,
hangs by rusted wire.

Rural French And Faded Old-World

 Burlap Luxe Home Faded And Washed

Linen and faded in old-world style; perfectly at home in
French country-style.

 Inspired by the palest of French living.
I have been sewing with faded worn looking linens.
 
 New to my etsy shop is the feather pillow slip covers envelope style
faded shams. They have the feeling of old world European linen flour sacks,
and I love the French cottage charm they add with being washed, and worn.

 Euro-sham in faded roses and stripped linen.

 Lumbar linen sham in the same print over stuffed with a feather insert.
It fights in no way with its pale backdrop.



 Rural French and faded with washed and worn old-world.

Sold!

Reclaimed fabric's add so much to my faded French home that
I am keeping a set for myself, and the other set is listed in my
etsy shop here on my sidebar. Soon to be filled with more
  relaxed vintage, and hand-made, sewn by Dore (me) 
at Burlap Luxe.

Living rural French.

The Natural Winter French Home

Burlap Luxe Home Living Naturally.

Living naturally in calm spaces, the way winter feels refreshing and all new with
lifes pleasures.

Fresh linens
Such things have an honest integrity placed at hand on a French iron washstand.

Layers of age, "refreshing."

Winter makes it that much more calming and quiet when the backdrop matches.

Stacked

Rows

Late winter berries from the garden hedges that frame this natural French cottage.

Its function offers beauty in its use.

Winter berries and twine.

A natural choice to the subject.

The natural French home is predominantly filled with soft colours quietly
taking on its surroundings with texture that dismiss a loud glance.

I am bringing in this new winter with milky whites, treebark beige, and
winter greys warming it with gentle tones of age.

French Fall In Its Seasoned Charm

Burlap Luxe Home

Be it ever so humble fall.
Where a palette of aged off sets the art of longing to belong.

In its season of faded charm.

Comfort and Beauty
Comes in all shades.

Days are darkening with aged romance.

Calm ~ Stillness ~ Quiet

No boundaries to softening the harder edges

Comfortable and relaxed, neglected and tattered embraces fall.
