Happy Mother's Day



After we install in the new house for a month, the Internet works finally since Friday evening. I am glad to access to the networks at home directly.



My parents-in-law come to the southern France since Tuesday for giving us some "training" because I am not good at tinkering at all. These days we all work together for repainting the shutters, the walls of the garage and for weeding in the garden. I am motivated and would like to know more techniques of house arrangement with them.



Before they arrived, I continued playing some caning at home but I don’t really make some new stuff. I will plan for the next collection soon.



Today is Mother’s Day in France; we prepare some cakes and champagne as the dessert and celebrate together at the lunchtime. Last week I wrote one brief story of mine for Mother’s Day and it’s published on Etsy.fr. We will read it with my parents-in-law this evening.



Since my husband and his dad are in front of the TV and watching Formula 1 now, my mother-in-law and me are able to access to Internet and do our own things. We both are very happy to get rid of the men for a while. :)

French Pastry Party *the 2nd series*


I am crazy for the mini French pastry and box making. I often apply “lace and birds”, which are two of my favorite elements on my design. They are also the symbols of love and passion. It’s agreeable to keep the packages simple and elegant! *It’s also easier to fold and glue.


For the pastry, I made some fruit tarts, profiteroles, domes and cream puffs this week. I got some inspiration from one French recipe book. I “stared” at the photos everyday and tried to tune the right colors. Eventually the result is not bad!




Now you can find them in my Etsy shop.
