SewMini Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Hey everyone! We are in our final days of vacation and have made it back to France. Today we went to the gorgeous Monet gardens and home. I took as many photos of the interior of the home as was socially acceptable because I immediately thought of all of you! I know many of you like the Victorian area and this really fits the bill. You all would have loved it. this kitchen is to die for! Here are some better shots of the huge stove I loved this little couch And this chaise And can you believe it? They even had roomboxes in the gift shop! I would have bought one of the small ones but poor Josh is still recovering from me buying the Moroccan tea set If you would like to see more you can go to my Flickr album. It's just the house but there were so many lovely pieces to look at! When i get the garden photos posted, I'll add that link. Tomorrow is our last day here. We're going to a friend's wedding outside of Paris which should be fun! Sunday we travel home. So looking forward to getting home and getting back to work on the Casa! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

havanaholly Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 I am drooling over that kitchen range! Merci beaucoup, cher coeur! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debsrand56 Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Those pictures are amazing! That home is gorgeous! And I can't believe those miniature room boxes. They do seem a bit pricey, so when you get home, you'll just have to make your own with these wonderful pictures as inspiration. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SewMini Posted July 14, 2017 Author Share Posted July 14, 2017 I thought that as well Deb! Especially the kitchen. I just dream about that range. It must have been a beast when it was fully heated. And all those copper pots!! I wanted to take a nap in all the squishy beds. Those couches were my favorite though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beulah Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Oh my, I want that stove too. When we had a home in Canada it had an old Findley Wood stove in it. OMG I loved cooking on it, (I had a regular one also) but ohh the heat from that old stove was so nice. Thank you for sharing.

Elsbeth Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 This is a 1:48 homage to the Giverny house - worth a look: http://sueherber.com/retired/monet/ And then I always love it when someone does the kitchen in 1:12: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elsbeth Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 How much do you estimate the roomboxes in the gift shop were priced at? I so love them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jenn-- Great links/pictures. You can really see the influence in the 1:48 house, even though it is not identical, and I really love the kitchen photo! Assuming the prices I'm seeing under the pictures are, in fact, the price tags for those items, then the kitchen is around $188 and the dining room around $900. Their kitchen isn't nearly as detailed as the one you posted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
