Beautifully done! I can't tell you how thirsty I've been to see a home tour that wasn't done by a 20-something or someone with millions of dollars. I'm envious of your ability to source such gorgeous vintage and antique items so easily. And the use of the Hermès scarf was genius. I'm not ready to move yet -- mostly due to elderly pets -- but this was inspiring for when I am able to go. France is on my shortlist.

thank you!! Yes, France (and maybe all of Europe) has beautiful furniture and accessories for very affordable prices- less than IKEA! When you are ready, check out estate sales or auctions in your area. I've bought some very pretty pieces for super cheap in the Boston area, the biggest cost is usually hiring a mover.

@@extraordinarywomennextchapter Funny, I'm originally from the Boston area, and have a few small things from there that were in my parents' house on the Cape. I had a forced downsizing during the Recession, but I kept a few nice pieces from the Midwest. And since then, I've picked up a few things in Mexico, and my sister sourced some nice furnishings for me in Los Angeles and Palm Springs. I have a refurbished antique dresser from a local thrift shop here in rural SoCal being delivered this weekend. My moving plan is to get a new bed and sofa wherever I land but to bring all my small tables, chests, and chairs with me in a freight cube. Likewise any nice dishware and glassware, plus art, that I've collected over the years, and some books (I have a large collection of art and coffee table books that can't be substituted with digital versions). I don't want to start over, and it's not cost effective (nor desirable to me) to buy new with every move. The trick is to find an unfurnished or minimally furnished place (I'll likely be renting). Then I'd like to add some pieces from local shops too. I love that layering you get when you collect over the decades and can repurpose pieces like your commodes in different ways.

My doc thinks I will be just fine. Now that I know I will most likely not die from this I need to get on with the rest of my life. I hit the pause button because I was worried that if I started anything I might not be here to follow it through. So now I can make some plans and take some action. The problem is I am not sure how to do that. But I watched a few of your videos and I think this is the place to start.

Love the idea of the pocket door to create privacy if/when the l/r is used for sleeping.

Having lived in Paris as a single person for 24 years (I'm now in Normandy), this apartment is quite the find. Perfect thart you created a real foyer, which I also consider really important. Also, the amount of storage space is exceptional (the French don't believe in closets, only armoires) - your decoration, though not my taste (I prefer Jean Royère or other French mid-century designers) is so naturally done that it doesn't feel decorated at all, which is the hardest design stunt to pull off. And I LOVE your window treatments, beautiful curtains. Brava

Size is deceiving...this is a small or regular sized apartment in Paris. 670 sq. feet or 63 sq. meters. But, I've learned as I've gotten older, that more space isn't what I need- because I then just fill it up with "stuff." Thank you for your kind words...yes, we never know how long each chapter will be so we have to try to find joy in each day.

Incredibly spacious for a Paris apartment - beautifully and elegantly appointed. Love the colour palette. The use of mirrors always makes a space look light and airy. Furnishings are sublime. For me that’s large apartment, but I get for those from America, this would seem small. Love the use of lamps in the kitchen creates a warm ambiance. Making one’s world smaller has great benefit in freeing up one from stuff - the more square footage the more stuff and the more one is having to keep clean and tidy. And maintenance. It’s amazing what we can manage without and only have what brings us joy in creating a harmonious comfortable relaxing home. It’s an expression of oneself.

Everything down to the added molding (or especially the molding) is my taste, exactly. I had to smile when you said the chairs are Pierre Frey as I have an entire Pinterest board on Pierre Frey. I lived in Germany and Austria for about 10 years when I was younger (am now 70) and so I’m not surprised by anything in your apt. I would have loved just a glimpse of the courtyard. Those are some of the loveliest perks of living in European cities (to me). I’m sure this is a different type of podcast for you but it is just right up my alley, I enjoyed it so very much.

Well, there is a cave for this apartment in the cellar, where I store papers, unused furniture, holiday decorations, etc. but nothing that is fabric. Every one of the cupboards you saw in the bedroom has shelves up to the ceiling so there are loads of storage....and my bed has two big drawers under it where I store sheets, table linens, off season clothing. I think the key is to be creative and figure out ways to divide up and organize things in a cupboard.

Oh wow. You nailed the Parisian style of combining old and new in a way that feels organic. I would live there in a heartbeat.

Your apartment is lovely! And, I love how you decided to built walls, when everyone seems to be knocking them down. I am like you. Congratulations, enjoy it fully!

I am French and always loved Paris. This apartment is so lovely and perfect for someone who loves art and the history of all great pieces that are finds all over France. Thank you!

Thank you for showing us your space. If you remember Frank Sinatra (?)singing "It Was A Very Good Year," I was that girl in San Francisco and I did indeed live up a stair in a huge studio with black nylon sheets on a mattress in the corner, no sofa, but I did have an ebony Steinway piano. The large white tile bathroom had a clawfoot bathtub. A sturdy wood soy sauce crate covered in black contact paper perfectly held my LP record collection with the phonograph on top. The huge closet had contained the double size Murphy bed that swung around and was lowered into the room. A pretty window in the closet brought in light that faded the celadon pinwale corduroy pantsuit (bell bottoms) I'd worked so hard to sew. According to Helen Gurley Brown, I was a little "mouseburger" rushing off to temp assignments. These days I still have the red Indian bedspread and the piano. On Sundays I visit Franklin Habit in Paris, being one of his patrons. You two are living a dream for the rest of us. Again, many thanks!

What a perfectly sized apartment, and oh, your furniture and decor are so beautiful! Love your long curtains as well. Enjoyed your apt tour!

OK, I understand. If you have a lot of money, you can buy a lot of expensive furniture with drawers that can hold your stuff. Novel storage idea. Your apartment is beautiful, but it's enormous for Paris, so the idea of 'downsizing' is disingenuous at best for most of us without your resources.

"Commode" is a French word meaning "convenience" which - like many terms - was long ago carried across the English Channel. In UK English & French, a commode is a toilet pot fitted into a chair - before the invention of plumbing - for "convenience". The item of furniture you keep referring to as a "commode" is actually a "wash stand". It would not be convenient to climb up on 24-32" high table to do your business.
