  What are your dreams? This womans aspirations were to become the worlds greatest figure skater. Her mother stood by her side for years to achieve that goal. At the age of 22 after just missing the Olympics she moved from America to Paris in 1986 to fulfill a dream to continue figure skating. She could not speak a word of French. Her choreographer yelled at her in french ... gauche and alter vers a la droite... left and then go right. There were no smart phones or computers to understand what he was saying. Can you imagine having the courage to move to a foreign country and not speak the language to accomplish your dreams.  This woman did not come from means. She was from a small town in Western Massachusetts with 3 siblings in a house with one bathroom. The lessons that she learned early in life have propelled her to greatness. She is a Master Florist, an accomplished author with a best selling book French Blooms, and a serial entrepreneur. This woman has achieved success because of her grit, hard work ethic, and determination. She has earned every detail of this apartment. I could not be more proud of my wife Sandra Sigman. You go girl!!

  The story in the beginning nearly brought me to tears. I'm so happy for Sandra, that her dreams came true! Her apartment is absolutely beautiful and esthetically pleasing and such a joy to watch. Would love to be a guest for the guest-sofa in the livingroom, I could come over by train from Germany😅😅 So good that she kept the floor!!! All the best to her and her family 🍀 and greetings from Germany 😊

  I bought your book probably 2 years ago and as you were telling your story - I was thinking …. ‘Gosh, that sounds familiar!’ - and then it came to me.  I’ve read your story!  I love the book and it is actually displayed in a curio next to my beautiful porcelain tea cups and sterling silver tea bag caddy that I bought at a Niçois brocante!  Such a fun episode for me.  Your place is gorgeous!

  Her shop in Andover, MA, is my favorite and I never miss going there when I’m visiting my daughter. The shop is GORGEOUS!
