Some sweet gift ideas for this season of love.
1.
Laduree DIY.
A visit to the Parisian pastry shop Laduree
is guaranteed to enchant, and this new recipe book
presents for the first time the secrets to making
all 80 varieties of their delicious macarons!

Pillow Talk.
Think beyond photos to personalize these cushions:
a love poem, your child's art, or your original illustration
are all possibilities.
Portable charger - Shutterfly
3.
Charged Up.
Charge your phone and tablet simultaneously with this
on the go charger, and personalize the faceplate!
4.
Picture Book.
For design lovers or Francophiles who freak for
a good coffee table book, here is a yummy book I own:
Paris' Designers and Their Interiors
by Marie Farman

There is nothing like peeking into stylishly chic spaces
in Paris, and in this volume we're privvy to the designers'
own living spaces.

The Story of Them.
The most popular gifts I have given?
Photo books, and for good reason.
A lot of us no longer order prints of our photos
and have forgotten the joy of the hard copy.
Happy shopping, friends,
and peace to you right where you are.

I think the photo book is a wonderful idea. As you say;) ordering prints is gone by the way-side with all of the digital options. I like the French design book and of course who can resist a yummy macaroon? ;) Happy Friday!
