"Vide Grenier" anyone?

A "Vide Grenier" literally means to empty the attic in French and is the equivalent of the American 'garage' or' lawn' sale and the British car' boot' sale. It seems to have become quite a pass time in France with people leaving very early in the morning to try and nab a "find" before anyone else; grabbing some lunch and a taste of wine on the spot as these tend to take place in beautiful rural villages. I spotted this well worn wrought iron rack and bought it for 5 €! Brought it back to the UK on top of the car, gave it a Farrow and Ball makeover and tada: a charming vintage piece of furniture to grace my home.
