I have web connection at home ! 3 days before the date annouced by the telecom services, miracles happen !
 
I am now sending the Mr Cup montly newsletter and it features a special coupon to get a -20% discount on all the shop, even the found collection. Normal sale will start only next week, on the 26th (and on this day, I will also go to see Muse live in Nice !), but as a lot of products are limited (like the wood products, a lot of letters are sold out), what are you waiting to suscribe to the Mr Cup newsletter ?
 
I also have added 2 products to the found section, this set of nice metal boxes & these small glasses in their metal box...

The past 2 months in France with instagram

posted in Life & travels  at 8.40 AM from Alès / France listening Damien Rice
So, as you know if you read this, we are in a new home, back in France for 2 months, and it seems I look at it differently... Having the phone &  instagram always near my hand, make me want to shoot on a day to day basis to report all what I do, see, feel... So, here comes a visual sum up of the great moments of the past 2 months. What I love the most in France is his history, is graphic history. There are vintage type everywhere if you watch it !
 
There are 2 vintage suitcases labels found on an old box found in my grand mother attic :
