What’s On My French Bedside Table

 

What’s on my bedside table changes constantly… maybe because it’s not very large and it has to hold all my reading and watching material.
The beauty bits are left on my dressing table… otherwise there would be no space at all.

 

I am a bit of a lounger in bed… and if I were to tell the truth… I could laze around all day, cozy and comfy.
I have also taken up the iPad habit… I don’t know if this is good or bad… but I do like watching a film or browsing the net under the covers.

 

We found this pair of bedside tables in L’Isle sur la Sorgue, a small town about 20 minutes away from St Rémy de Provence, when we were restoring our farmhouse.
I would have preferred something more generous… but I fell in love with these consoles, their original paintwork and pretty shape… not to mention the embossed shell motif on the front.
They seemed perfect for our bedroom.

 

What’s on your beside table? What are you reading? Do tell… xv

 

On The Bedside Table

Always a pair of reading glasses… I’m lost without them.

 

A notebook to jot down ideas and thoughts.

 

My ipad and the cute animal print case that my daughter gave me for my birthday this year… Inside my Kindle is hiding.

 

Tissues in a white linen envelope.

 

An old glass jewellery box filled with sea pearls… and a porcelain saucer with the brooch and earrings I wore the night before.

 

Old frames with snaps of our children at varying ages.

 

A pewter mug with an eye mask.

 

The classics… Anne of Green Gables, The Secret Garden and Alice in Wonderland... I am trying to re-visit some of my childhood reading.

 

and a bunch of lilac from the garden…xv
