TICK-TOCK, TICK-TOCK! Last call for a chance of a lifetime auction!

Gambar
As I check my clock here on the east coast, it looks like there are only about 5 hours left in the two eBay auctions from Denmark that are offering up COMPLETE SETS  of EVERY ISSUE of  Jeanne d'Arc Living Magazine  from it's beginning in 2009 all the way through the last issue of  2010. Considering the emails and phone calls we get from people frantic to get their hands on "any and all back issues you have!" I would seriously consider watching this auction in it's final hours now... So many people wait and watch an auction like this, and then POUNCE during the last couple of minutes. :) You may want to get your foot in the door before it closes. ;) BELOW IS A RE-POST OF THE INFORMATION  SO YOU CAN SEE WHAT IS "AT STAKE". You can skip down to the bottom of the post to find the two separate links for the 2009 set auction and and the 2010 set auction: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ PSST!  You there!  Yes!  You! SHHHH!!! I wanna let you in one something! You r

The Humble French Bottle Drying Rack Is Elevated To Haute Art!

Gambar
It all began with an email from NYC artist BO JOSEPH inquiring about purchasing quite few of our  French Bottle Drying Racks as well as some of our  "Perfect Setting" paper place mats. He indicated he needed about 7 for a project he was working on for the Brooklyn Artist's Ball in which he was to be an exhibitor. His exhibit would pay homage to  Marcel Duchamp   (the one who created the bottle rack  as his first example of "ready-made" art)  and Bo wanted to cover them with images of works from the museum collection  & incorporate lighting on each rack. Sooooo.... We furnished him his bottle racks & place mats,  and he promised to send me pics of the finished project. Weeks later, the email came with some of the MOST AMAZING PICTURES. The gala was attended by the likes of Sara Jessica Parker,  Liv Tyler and more than a few other celebrities and NYC socialites.  :) What a fun night it seems to have been! Just look at what Bo did with our   bottle drying r

After A VERY Long Wait, Jeanne d'Arc Living Decor Products Are BACK ON THE BLOCK! :)

I'll make this a short one, since the "star" of this post is HERE!! Jeanne d'Arc Living products have hit our doorstep for the first time in almost a year and a half and their wares are more gorgeous than ever. The old familiar words were being spoken once again as item by item was plucked from the shipping container: "Ohhhhh my...." "Wow...." "Ummmm.... this is a-m-a-z-i-n-g...." and on and on... Not one single item that arrived was in any way a disappointment. Not one. I hope you are all as excited and happy as we are about the reinstatement of the  new JEANNE D'ARC LIVING DECOR section on our site. I have a feeling this is the beginning of a very good thing... ;) Happy weekend to you!!! Please give the new JDL things a look-see!!  Hugs,   

Some things come along only once in a blue moon... (HINT HINT.. THIS is one of them!)

PSST!  You there!  Yes!  You! SHHHH!!! I wanna let you in one something! You ready?? If you are an avid Jeanne d'Arc Living magazine fan (and who isn't?) and if you have ever wished too late that you had thought to  secure one of EVERY issue every published, you are going to be very happy! I have a friend in Denmark who is ready to  part with an  ENTIRE FULL COMPLETE  set of Jeanne d'Arc Living magazines  from... { ARE YOU READY FOR THIS???? } The first copy  EVER PRINTED!! The entire 2009 set -- issues 1 through 6 AND the entire 2010 set -- issues 1 - 8. How 'bout that? This is pretty much unheard of. I mean, we have been carrying quite a few of the back-issues  as we can get them (not all are even available to us, as retailers) and now even some of the issues we've been able to get even as recently as our last shipment are now all gone. FOREVER. Sooooo.... I say all this to say... If you are one of the MANY who have emailed or called us begging for any and all bac

A (Pretty) "Bright Idea" -- Thanks Mr. Edison!

Sometimes bringing the a little bit of the past into the present  can be a bright idea... As is the case with these fabulous Edison Bulbs! We've just added them to the site (along with QUITE A FEW other new things) and I've added the bulb to my own home en masse!   I've decked out a chandelier, two wall sconces, and soon, quite a few lamps. I am LOVING the look, too! Hope all is well with you! As for me, the remodel is for all intents and purposes "done" -- there are a few "tweeks" that need to be addressed by the flooring guys, but we have our furnishing back in the house  and I'm having fun setting things out in their new locale around the new space. And let me tell you, I've been BAFFLED by the fact that though we should theoretically have more space... why doesn't everything we had in there 2 months ago  now "fit"??   I'm making piles of things now to give away/donate because for some strange reason, what came out won't
