Just In at Paris Hotel Boutique!

collection of vintage lady oil portraits {I just love portraits}

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend! Today is "new arrivals" day at PHB! Just added over 60 new items to the shop! Here are some highlights of a few of my acquisitions during the last month...

This is an early 1950's authentic San Francisco bus roll sign. At over 31 feet with almost every stop in San Francisco, it's really something in person. I've never seen one this long before. And, it has its original view box from the bus!

When I stumbled upon this antique jeweled French crown, I nearly flipped out! The largest crown I've ever seen. It's actually bigger than my head!

One of my favorite finds was these huge bound New York Times newspapers from the 20's and 30's. They are huge in size and the content it just amazing...had to keep one for myself...

I found this petite tufted stool and the antiques faire. I just loved the faded blue upholstery and the little turned up legs...

This old clock came from France. Made of stone, doesn't it have such character and charm? I've never seen one like it before.

Was I excited to find this enormous trophy! This figural bridge tournament trophy measures over 2 feet tall. Well, you know how much I like trophies, right?

Wishing you a great week ahead!

An Instant Family!

It's always fun getting to know my customers and imagining their decorating style. I love it when people send me photos of their homes/rooms to see how they integrated their vintage purchases into their decor.

I was thrilled to receive this photo from my customer Lisa. Lisa recently purchased this large aristocratic lady oil painting to add to her collection of portraits. Isn't it fun amongst her other portraits, and in in front of her cute white chair? From Southern California to San Francisco, and final destination, Atlanta, Georgia, glad this lady found a nice home!

If any of you have any photos of your home that you'd like to share, please send them my way.

Thanks again Lisa!

Thanks Country Living!


I'm excited! Paris Hotel Boutique's French woman portrait is on the cover of the September issue of Country Living magazine. See the little painting in the back?

Special thanks to Brooke Walis of Country Living for putting this together. Looks like a great issue. I'm going to start reading now...
