So while browsing through some of my sweet sponsors' shops, I selected some Christmas gifts that would make my heart skip a beat and my eyes shine! Oh la la!

Un Noël brillant, scintillant, et bling-bling, type glamour hollywoodien. Alors en me baladant sur les boutiques en ligne de certains de mes sponsors, j'ai sélectionné les articles qui feraient scintiller mes pupilles et chavirer mon coeur... Oh la la!

Avez vous jeté un coup d'oeil dernièrement à la sélection de la boutique en ligne Le Repère Des Belettes, l'un des sponsors de ce blog?

I am very proud to welcome Westwing as a FrenchByDesign blog sponsor. Founded by a former editor at Elle and Elle Decoration magazines, Westwing is the premier French online shopping club for home & living.

Westwing offers its members exclusive home décor accessories and furniture, both from established premium labels and up-coming designers, with savings up to 70% off retail prices.

Here is a selection of Westwing products I’d love to get my hands on and add to my own interior…

In love with the vibrant summery colors of these hammam foutas By Johanne®. These would look fabulous at the beach, in a bathroom or to show off at the next pool party!

Oh, what a cool idea! I already mentioned that I really like wallpaper as statement pieces on one unique wall. Add some pop in your entryway with this awesomely unique "paint strips" wallpaper from Oh My Wall®.

How many pillows can a sofa or daybed hold to be welcoming and cosy? If you ask me, the more, the better. I am having a serious crush for these Colorique® "ethnic" chic inspired pillows.

See?... Told ya', Westwing carries some pretty cool home decor products. Go have a look for yourself!

Sponsor du Jour: Delica

You might recall a "Shop crush" I had a few months back about Delica, an online shop, or for those of you who are “regulars” on this blog, some pics of chez moi with some of Delica's home accessory products. So it’s no wonder that I am beyond excited to welcome Delica as a blog sponsor.

Launched by talented California based artist Yuni in 2009, Delica is a mother and daughter collaboration, designing and creating felt work together. While designing for Delica, Yuni is currently pursuing her graduate degree in architecture. Delica offers a deliciously attractive collection of felt home accessories from felt pebbled magnets to door hanger mobiles or very unique felt necklaces.
Delica is for sure an online store you’ll want to check for your Christmas list shopping, especially if you’re looking for unique handmade gifts [shhh… even for yourself ;-)]
