Celebrations in Paris





Paris is filled with New Years Eve celebrations.  They even have events tailored to an age group.  This reveillon is for people thirty and over~ Oui?














No celebration is complete without fireworks from the Eiffel Tower.

Wishing you peace and joy
 in 2013.

Warmly,

Winter in Paris


The snow crunches under foot and the light twinkle and sparkle all around. Winter     is a wonderful time to visit Paris.

Decorating with Natural Material

We are fortunate to have pepperberry trees in the neighborhood and during the second week of December you can find me scouring the neighborhood with my snips and a grocery bag collecting whatever catches my eye to decorate our mantle, tabletop and above frames and mirrors.  I tuck greenery in every nook and cranny!  of course, it is all intertwined with gorgeous ribbon found at Ribbonerie!
Warmly,
Shannon

The Lights of Paris

The leaves have disappeared and the branches cast a weak shadow over the paths and walkways.  Soon the lamplights will glow and light the way.

Ribbons Galore!


There is a wonderland of a shop on a small street in San Francisco that we can easily spend hours in trying to decide what ribbons we have to have!  You know how much we enjoy wrapping our gifts and your purchases from us.
Ribbonerie has been in the same spot forever and you need to add it to your San Francisco sites.
Warmly,
Shannon

Fall Light

In Northern California we have a few trees that treat us the fall colors of elsewhere.  Our light changes to more golden casts, the grasses turn and the weather is devine!
Enjoy,
