Already Advent Season for 2014...
Can't believe it but it is TRUE.
Wishing you all a Meaningful First Advent Week.
Just using a red Point A la Ligne candle from France with fresh Rosemary sprigs from the garden.
Rosemary emits such a lovely fragrance!
The beautiful pineapple doily was hand crocheted by my sister-in-law Elly VandenMunckhof, she is a loyal reader of this blog.
The red rose ribbon is French too.
And so is the Baccarat vase...
For such a Perfect French Baccarat Crystal Candle Holder with etched mark including the fragrant red candle, you can have a look on my online Boutique. Just click the above link.
Sorry all sold out...

Een mooi plaatje! De tijd vliegt als maar harder lijkt het wel, maar dat schijn bij het ouder worden te horen :)
ReplyDeleteBeste Marianne,
DeleteDat blijkt zeker te kloppen. Onze baas in México, een ex race car driver, zei altijd dat naarmate je de finish nadert, het steeds sneller gaat. Hij sprak uit ervaring maar het is nog waar ook!
Een stemmige tijd wensen we ook jullie beiden.
Liefs,
Mariette
Ja,Mariette de tijd gaat snel en soms hebben we amper de tijd om op adem te komen......
ReplyDeleteik schrijf volgens jou mijn blogpost zelfs in één adem.
Ik tref het wel eens dat ik blogberichten in één adem lees zo boeiend,interessant of leuk geschreven.
Morgen alweer de eerste Adventzondag.
Hier branden de lichtjes elke dag niet in kristal maar in doodgewone oude Franse confituurpotten die ik lang geleden in Frankrijk kocht of in terracotta oude Belgische bloempottekes,past ook veel beter bij mijn landelijke,antieke en knusse interieur.
Denk dat ik zo dadelijk ook maar eens wat verse rozemarijn van de plant ga knippen voor in mijn home made gehaktbrood in de oven.
Fijn weekeind en lieve groet!!
Ger
Lieve Ger,
DeleteHopelijk heb je toch nog wat tijd gevonden om bij te komen van de pijn in je heup! De tijd raast inderdaad ontzettend door.
Maar ik schreef nergens dat jij je blog in één adem schrijft maar: 'Nou zeg, dat was heel wat bij elkaar genoemd in één adem!' opgeknapte keukentje
Inderdaad staat de Adventstijd alweer voor de deur!
Wij gebruiken ook geen kristallen kaarsenhouders, die zijn enkel voor de verkoop in mijn Boutique.
Geniet van jullie weekend en liefs,
Mariette
Liebe Mariette,
ReplyDeleteDir und Deinen Lieben wünsche ich einen besinnlichen 1. Advent.
herzlichst Traudi
Liebe Traudi,
DeleteRecht herzlichen Dank und auch ihr alle ebenfalls ein sehr schönes Adventswochenende.
Liebe Grüsse,
Mariette
Dearest Mariette,
ReplyDeleteYour advent candle with rosemary is an elegant display.
I actually got my Advent Calendar in time for December 1. Speaking of which, I was wondering what happened to October and here we are starting December. What happened?
Enjoy your week end......*s*
Dearest Suzi,
DeleteOh, what happened indeed... those months are so awfully short! They end before the even start.
Enjoy this coming season and let's hope we will find some quiet family time as well.
Hugs,
Mariette

ReplyDeleteÓtima sugestão!
Amo ervas aromáticas plantadas em meu jardim.
Também tenho alecrim e manjericão.
Além de maravilhosos na culinária também são ótimos para tornar o ambiente muito agradável.
Bom fim de semana!

Dearest Dimi,
DeleteFrench Point à la Ligne candles are the Rolls Royce of candles and so heavenly fragrant too! Lucky for having found these French beauties and I'm very careful for not burning them out.
Happy 1st Advent week to you and yours.

Buona prima domenica dell'avvento anche a te. Domani, 30 Novembre, S. Andrea.....Grazie mille Mariette per la tua presenza costante, discreta, piena di sincero sentimento. E mi accorgo che certe amicizie, certi sentimenti non conoscono alcuna distanza.....come tra te e me divise da un Oceano. Con grande affetto e infinita stima.....Un abbraccio pieno d'affetto. Paola ♥♥♥
ReplyDeleteCara Paola,
DeleteGiorno di Sant'Andrea e la 1 ° domenica di Avvento è un periodo molto speciale dell'anno. Nei nostri cuori ci dovrebbe essere ancora e pensare a significati più profondi della vita.
Invio di caldi abbracci e Beata Avvento di inizio per voi e i vostri cari.
Mariette

Dearest Michiko,
DeleteOh yes, my sister-in-laws hand crocheted pineapple doily is a lovely one that I treasure already for decades. The special French Rose Ribbon I love and those French Baccarat crystal candle holders are for sale on my Boutique; including a fragrant red candle.
Sending you lots of hugs and wishing you a blessed Sunday.
Mariette
Dear Mariette,
ReplyDeleteYou have shared a lovely French inspired vignette - so beautiful for the first week of Advent. Your sister's doily looks lovely framing the scene. Hugs and blessings xo
Karen
Dearest Karen,
DeleteThank you, it just so happened to be all French items, except the Rosemary. The table it is on is French oak, the D.M.C. thread for the pineapple doily that my sister-in-law made is French...
Sending you hugs and blessings + sunshine.
Mariette
Very pretty Mariette - wishing you the best!

Dearest Catherine,
DeleteWishing you a cozy indoor Advent period as I know this is such a rough and cold time of the year for you..
Hugs,
Mariette
lieve Mariette ,
ReplyDeleteEen mooie nieuw foto op de voor pagina (zal ik het maar zeggen )
met de kopjes koffie en (volgens mij ) de lekker geurende gardenia ...
maar ook een mooie foto met de kaars en de rozemarijn ,,,'
ik heb ook rozemarijn ..ik denk dat ik morgen ook rozemarijn in een vaasje ga zetten..
staat leuk en als dan ook nog lekker ruikt ...een goede tip ...
heel veel liefs en een fijne week
Lieve Nieneke,
DeleteJa, goed gezien met Douwe Egberts koffie in Royal Albert Gardenia kopjes en èchte Gardenia uit onze tuin in november 2011... Dit jaar bloeien ze níet; jammer genoeg. Rozemarijn ruikt zo heerlijk als die in een vaasje staat.
Liefs en ook een fijne week.
Mariette
The first Sunday of Advent hints that the most wonderful time of the year has started. May you have a meaningful Advent season. Your display is a classic beauty.
ReplyDeleteDearest Mari,
DeleteIt sure speaks of a very cozy time of the year, spent together with family and for the northern hemisphere, very much indoors. Focusing inwards in both ways.
Thank your for the compliment!
Hugs,
Mariette
Best wishes for advent, it is so lovely wreath.
ReplyDeleteAlles beste voor advent, thit is zo moi decoratie.
Dearest Nataša,
DeleteHappy 1st Advents week to you as well.
Thank you so much for your Dutch words and compliment.
Hugs,
Mariette
Rosmarin aus dem Garten, was für eine geniale Idee, liebste Mariette! In Ermangelung von Tanne?
ReplyDeleteIch hoffe, Ihr hattet einen schönen Adventssonntag ... ohje, jetzt weiß ich wieder nicht, welche Zeit Ihr habt ...
Rot ist auch unsere Adventskerzenfarbe.
Eine schöne Adventszeit wünsche ich Dir und Deinem lieben Mann und alles Liebe
Sara
Liebe Sara,
DeleteDanke, es riecht auch so lecker dass es eine ware Freude ist!
Tannen haben wir hier nicht... bei euch ist es reichlich vorhanden aber nicht in unsere Gegend. Nur dass was angeboten wird zur Weihnachtszeit.
Wir sind 6 Stunden hinter euch... ihr seid vor!
Eine recht schöne Adventswoche wünsche ich euch!
Mariette
I know, time flies! Before we know, it'll be 2015.
ReplyDeleteRosemary does have very lovely scent. My husband cooked rice with rosemary before and it was very good :-) Love the candle...so romantic! And the doily made by your sister-in-law looks very elegant and lovely!
Dearest Tamago,
DeleteYes, time is pushing us all way too hard ahead...
Rosemary is also lovely with potato wedges in the oven and I bet with rice it will have the same effect.
Thank you for your compliments, that candle I want to preserve as it is so beautiful and no longer available... My sister-in-law is very talented in creating such lovely doilies.
Hugs,
Mariette
Hello Mariette!
ReplyDeleteFrom what I see, I can only imagine that your Xmas table and decorations will be outstanding!
I love Baccarat crystal, it's soooo refined!
Hugs, keep well and arm!
Dearest Noushka,
DeleteGuess I am very much French and Italian oriented. We have wooden hand carved Angels from Italy and lots of French things for the table; our complete Baccarat crystal glasses. To us it is the best in the world.
Hugs to you as well.
Mariette
Cara Mariette...buon avvento!Baci,Rosetta
ReplyDeleteCara Rosetta,
DeleteGrazie e anch'a tutti voi un buon avvento.
