Our raison d'être is simple: We adore France and sharing her beauty & culture with others. We aspire to bring French sensibilities to your everyday life through our curated collection of vintage French finds in our online shop and our creative destination workshops in d’art ménagers or lifestyle arts.
It’s an opportunity to rediscover France in a new way and bring a bit of French style to your home.
Objects with a story
Le Shop connects one-of-a-kind, vintage treasures with individuals who love French quality and design. Each item is hand selected and adored for its beauty, utility, and the stories it has to tell.
Rest assured, all orders are wrapped with care and promptly sent on their journey from our home to yours.

Living a French Life’s Forager Scarf Pattern
My first digital pattern is available in Le Shop for download. Inspired by the work of Parisian textile designer, Sophie Digard, this simple crochet pattern transforms your leftover small skeins of dyed, fine-gauge yarn into a one-of-a-kind scarf or shawl. This is not your usual Granny Square. The magic happens when you combine all the beautiful colors together with a few simple crochet stitches.
Coming Summer 2023
Small creative workshops in the inspirational countryside of Southwest France.
Our relaxed, small workshops capture the d’arts ménagers or French lifestyle skills that inspire a slower and more creative way of living. Whether learning the art of making fresh cheese or creating your own natural dyes and inks, it’s a pampered and authentic experience in the French southwestern countryside. Details will be shared soon.
There is art in everyday tasks.

Bonjour!
In 2017, we packed our belongings, 2 dogs and 2 cats, and moved across 2 oceans and 2 continents to begin our new life in France. This is our story. Join us as we restore a 400-year-old stone farmhouse, create a business that connects individuals to French culture, and celebrates the simplicity of everyday life.
