Embroidered Leaf Appliqué Straw Fan |
I love the idea of going old school, sitting in my lanai in one of my caftans, sipping a glass of Sancerre, and fanning myself with one of these gorgeous hand fans. These fans are handmade by Columbian artisans and each one is unique.
Did you know that Sancerre was a favorite wine of Ernest Hemingway? It is a crisp, dry white, perfect with oysters. It was a cheap table wine in Hemingway's days, but has gotten a bit pricey.

Back to the hand fans, here are more in the collection. I am trying to decide on one. It would be lovely to stick in my handbag (I always carry large straw bags so I can fit anything) for outdoor dining at restaurants when it is a bit warm. This is perfect for any outdoor function in the heat of the summer. Very elegant. Click on the captions to link.
Speaking of straw bags, these are on sale with an additional 20% off with code EXTRA20.
I have this striped straw bag and loved it.
I love Sancerre, and large summer totes too. I've only recently discovered Sancerre, as I was never much of a wine drinker. Is Christian Salmon your favorite? I love the straw bags that Nannacay and Indego Africa have.
ReplyDeleteChristian Salmon is an excellent one - not sure I have a favorite. I will check out those straw bags.
