DEAR FRIENDS & VALUED CUSTOMERS,
As the leaves turn and the days grow shorter, I’m reminded of the simple joys this season brings. Amid busy days and life’s challenges, there’s a quiet beauty in pausing to appreciate all that we have, both great and small.
As we enter the holidays, my heart is filled with gratitude for the community we’ve built together. At Paysage Home, every visit and conversation reminds me that living well isn’t about perfection, but about cherishing beautiful spaces, meaningful moments, and the people who fill them.
Wherever this season finds you, I hope you take time to enjoy the rituals that bring you peace and joy…a favorite recipe, a cozy morning, or time with loved ones.
Thank you for allowing us to be part of your story. Wishing you a season filled with gratitude, laughter, and warmth.
With heartfelt gratitude,
Gigi Sireyjol-Horsley
Owner & Lead Interior Designer Paysage Home

ARTIST OF THE MONTH
ROSE WARNER
Blending painting and weaving, the artist creates "woven paintings" by cutting canvases and reweaving them with threads on a loom. This technique explores the relationship between fine art and fine craft, blurring the lines while introducing the concept of the seen and unseen. The layered threads obscure and accentuate the painted images, resulting in unified pieces that suggest concealed motion. All works are rooted in themes of home, nature, and memory.

CURIOUS ABOUT THE RECENT LOUVRE HEIST?
The Louvre, the world’s busiest museum, was struck by a daring heist on the morning of October 19, 2025. Between 9:30 and 9:40 a.m., just within the first hour of opening, robbers stole nine priceless items from the French Crown Jewels collection. Only Empress Eugenie’s crown was found, damaged and abandoned at the scene. French Culture Minister Rachida Dati described the thieves as professional, acting calmly and without violence.
What’s Next?
PaysagePaysage
Despite the Louvre’s high security, this brazen robbery raises questions about how it was possible. Interestingly, security has been tightened in some galleries recently following protests that targeted artworks to highlight climate change issues. Could this heist reveal new vulnerabilities?
The investigation into the 2025 heist is ongoing. How did the robbers bypass security so quickly? Will the stolen jewels ever be recovered? This latest crime adds a new chapter to the Louvre’s long and fascinating history of heists and leaves many eager to learn more.
A FRENCH TWIST ON THANKSGIVING: BLENDING TRADITIONS
As autumn leaves fall, Thanksgiving invites us to gather and give thanks. While France doesn't officially celebrate the holiday, the French approach to dining blends beautifully with the American tradition: a reverence for seasonal bounty and generous hospitality.
y P y
PBoth cultures cherish gathering around a table filled with comforting, seasonal dishes. Just as Americans feature turkey and root vegetables, the French embrace autumnal ingredients like squashes and chestnuts, perhaps serving a golden roast chicken with chestnut stuffing.
The difference lies in the presentation. Americans favor a loaded, family-style abundance. The French prefer elegant succession. Their meal might start with creamy pumpkin soup, lead to a main dish, and conclude with a refined cheese course and a delicate fruit tart. Rustic bread and fine wine often replace dinner rolls.
To blend these traditions, feature American autumn produce prepared with French flair. Think haricots verts almondine or a savory mushroom galette. Set your table with simple linens, candles, and natural foliage for understated elegance.
Whether you lean American, French, or blend both, the focus remains on warmth, gratitude, and savoring the season's bounty.
