You know how 92.7% of the time when you see a pic of yourself you wish something was different (hair, weight, smile, angle, your whole life, LOL!)? When I saw this pic of myself that Gypsy Sister Tricia, Vintage Bliss took, my first thought was: “That’s ME. In my element. In front of my gypsy Airstream. Wearing ripped … Continue reading
Bonjour Y’all! Paris Montana is on the road and having a fabulous time! I had to share a story with you about Pearls and Duct tape, our motto has never been truer!

Friends and fellow gypsies often ask, “how do you travel with your Mother?!?” Then they meet my Mama Luv, who often hits the road with me. Mama luv is full of fun and life and is always up for a good adventure (as long as she has her own feather pillow and a strong cup of joe the … Continue reading
I have been a follower of the Junk Gypsies of Texas for many years. They represent a kind of simplicity and soul food that draws me back to places like Roundtop, Texas and Livingston, Montana, year after year in the Blacktop Boudoir to set up in a field of wildflowers windblown and sun kissed and happy as a … Continue reading

After customers ask, “Where is Paris Montana?” they often ask, “What is Paris Montana style?” It’s not trendy and it’s not exactly boho chic…or straight up couture…It’s more…. “Glamour and Grit?” “Yes!

Somehow I ended up in this do-it-yourself world without the crafty gene. Creative? yes. Sewing, measuring, sawing? no. BUT I don’t let it stop me. My secret weapons of choice? Duck Tape and Gorilla Glue. Works on 92.7% of whatever I need done… (Like glueing my beloved Paris Montana skull back together AGAIN after a particularly nasty crash and burn.) … Continue reading
Sometimes I can’t believe that my office is a wide open prairie of cool grass and wild flowers growing every which way and blue sky stretching out as far as I can see.
