This giant Sleepy Bear looks like he may be headed for hibernation. One might think that's what I've been up to here of late. But in reality, I took a break and have been vacationing in Paris with my hubby and some dear friends. It was a much needed and welcomed reprieve from life.
One day of the trip, I actually attempted to post a blog ~ then asked myself, "What on earth am I doing...I'm in Paris for crying out loud!" I decided, understandably, it could wait until I returned home.
As you may have guessed by now, he's part of an old hotel sign from the 50's. My original intention was to sell him at the Dallas Market, but occasionally, some treasures I find are a little more difficult to part with than others. Once I got Sleepy Bear home, I couldn't pass him off so easily.
As for me, I'm currently getting back into the groove of things and overcoming jet lag. My friend, Alison, and I enjoyed a day perusing the Le marche aux Puces (the Paris flea market). My plans are to share some photos soon of Paris in the spring. It was magnifique! I hope you have a good week ~ Au revoir!
Love Sleepy Bear! Caroline was in Paris last week! The weather was wonderful, so I know you must have had a well-deserved vacay!
ReplyDeleteThanks Krissy ~ he's pretty special. What was Caroline doing in Paris? It was absolutely beautiful! It was nice to get away from it all for a few days. Hugs!
DeleteWhat a great find! So glad you kept it, looks great right there!
ReplyDeleteI agree ~ such a great find (and he only set me back $100 ~ which I thought was a steal!). Thanks for stopping by.

I think Sleepy Bear may bring you luck and watch over you and your family (when he's not asleep). So glad you 'got out of Dodge' for some much needed R & R.
ReplyDeleteHe is a happy guy ~ I think I was pretty lucky to find him. Thanks Annie ~ it was nice to get away.
