Movie Posters en Francais
I’ve had this image saved on my desktop for the last couple of weeks now.

Not only did I adore the kelly green campaign dresser and the color combo of green and blue, but the one item that had me hitting google was the movie poster. One of my favorite parts of going to High Point last year was seeing how all of the showrooms were styled. They all gave me so many ideas on unique artwork and stylish coffee table books, etc.
Now I know that using movie posters as artwork is not new, but I love that instead of going with a traditional English print they used a french version. For some reason the French versions of old movie posters are really brightly colored and I’m hooked.
Here are some of my favorite old movies:

My dad instilled in me a great love for vintage movies and I could seriously go on and on finding posters that feature some of my old time favorites.
What’s an old favorite film of yours? Have you checked out it’s French movie poster yet?

My living room is one of the rooms that evolved drastically from when we first moved one. Originally I painted the walls chocolate brown and did accents of white, blue and orange. That lasted maybe 2 years.
Our dining room sat empty for months. Okay maybe it was empty for just a handful of weeks and then we couldn’t take it anymore and put in a folding table and plastic outdoor chairs, but in my mind that was still empty.
On the main floor of our house we have a Florida room. Being that it’s a Florida room it is a considered a 3 season room, because there is no heat in the room. The previous owners used it as an indoor patio with outdoor furniture and it looked like this when we moved in.
I adore the Hitchcock Film Posters, so intriguing!!
