Why are you reading this ...

when you could be off reading and looking at gorgeous photos of the sumptuous life of Marie Antoinette? In honor of Somerset's publication "Marie," which is on newsstands today, two blogs are having Marie Antoinette celebrations!

The first is Gabriela Delworth's blog. Her is a week-long celebration with guest writers, facts and unknown trivia about the art, fashion and history of 'toinette - and a giveaway! Click on the button below to be transported to Versailles via Gabriella Delworth!


Then, immediately fly over to Joy Jones' Cupids Charm blogspot for another extravaganza! Again, it's a full week long - and today's post included a document which I've heard about for a long time, but never seen. Can't wait to see what else she has in store for the week! She is also included in the "Marie" publication, and you can see photos of her exquisite Marie-inspired jewelry that was published. She also promises surprise giveaways! Just click on the button below to be transported to Joy's celebration!

So, you can see that there is far more exciting stuff around than reading here today! I'm off to complete a few offerings for this week's Flea Market Friday ... and you should be off to the Marie Antoinette parties!

Afterwards, and you're all inspired to create, go make something lovely - maybe Marie-inspired today!

    I do love Marie but no time to create today. I did manage to get in a little shopping-addictions first, work second.
