the french garden party and a giveaway

Who doesn’t love a garden party?! Here at MFCH we are celebrating! Can you believe that this next box is the 30th edition of My French Country Home Box? I’m not sure how those years have gone past so quickly!!

I know that some of our clients have subscribed to the box from the very first edition – which is totally wonderful for us, and the greatest compliment we could wish for

The fun of curating these collections has never faded. Sometimes it is more challenging than others, if one of the items is held up in production. Or if at the last minute we realise we can’t fit everything into the box (true story! it happened once, but not twice!). More than anything it is our privilege to curate these collections with you our clients in mind, and introduce you to our favorite French brands.

The giveaway!

To celebrate this special anniversary, we have curated a box for you around the theme The Garden Party. I absolutley love a Garden Party?! Summer vibes, roses blooming, easy entertaining, pretty tables, champagne and wine, and a wonderful moment with friends.

So because I can’t actually invite you all to a French Garden Party, we are doing the next best thing and giving away two of our Boxes! Two people will have the chance to receive our Garden Party Box as a gift.

Hello Sharon, here in the Australian capital city, Canberra, we are in the early throes of Autumn, the temperatures have dipped and the deciduous trees are about to show us their Autumn colours. So not a time for any Spring Garden Parties, but a nevertheless a change in the light and colour to celebrate after a long Summer. I would feel privileged to be selected for your wonderful MCFH Box giveaway.

Bonjour Sharon,

Thank you as always for the opportunity to win a MFCH box. The garden party one is lovely. My mother passed away on 12-21-22. I miss her every day. If the box becomes a gift to me, I will have a wonderful little celebration in honor of her with the beautifully crafted items within. My garden is in full bloom and your magazines and inspiring words about all things France are always a welcome refreshment in my world. The very best of everything to you and may your business flourish with all things new and beautiful~ Juliana

Spring is my absolutely favourite time of year, and it would truly be sublime to win a box! I subscribed for 2 years and continue to enjoy the many lovely things I received in my boxes over that time. Miss the anticipation of knowing many special things were in store for me each time a box was on its way.
