5dollarfrenchmarket's Profile

Bio

* we love to drink tea and pretend we live in paris.
* we love to say "oui" instead of "yes." and "merci" instead of "thanks!"
* we like to buy baguettes from the bakery on the corner.
* we simply could not live without croissants. and tiny chocolates.
* we cut out pictures of the eiffel tower and hang them everywhere.
* we love marie antoinette.
* we especially love the movie with kirsten dunst and watch it at least 3x a week.
* we do laundry and dream of hanging it on a clothesline in the french countryside.
* we love to window shop and say "ooh la la!"
* we don't have a dog, but if we did... it would be a pink poodle.

and some days... we just etsy all day long because it's "tres fabulous!"
