Debbiedoo's Copy Cat Challange

I took my copy out of the spring/summer 2010 Country French magazine. To date that is still my favorite issue. LOVE this whole room! I am coping the coffee table vignette.

Just bought the tulips yesterday, in a day or two they will start to droop just like the flowers in the picture. Already had the pottery, books and blue pieces.
                       
 Well that's it for my copy, can't wait to see yours! Thank you Debbie for always hosting this fun party! Now head on over to Debbiedoo's and join in on the fun!

    That's a great copy, dear Martina, funny how some things are timeless. Daffodils, pottery, books and plates to name a few. Your copy proves that.
    Have a good week.

    Really pretty Martina. I almost bought tulips the other day but opted for the new Country Home instead. Still not sure I made the right choice! I may have mentioned this before but I think we have the same coffee table. Love the pillows on your sofa too. Have a good week!

    Great copy cat. Just remember tulips continue to grow. So every other day you will probably need to snip them at the bottom. Lori

    Looks great Martina! I have the same issue of Country French Magazine (saved it because it is one of my favs) I have always loved the room that you copied because red is one of my favorite colors.
