This is the story about another blogsphere friendship that developed over some matcha diamant cookies. It's about the lovely and super talented Deb and her delicate jewelry Bonbon Oiseau and my interpretation of what her pieces represent.
I have admired Deb's work ever since I found her blog "Your Destiny is Stone Golden" a few months ago. We started exchanging emails and as time went on, we decided that one day we would collaborate somehow. Deb asked me if I could photograph her work. Her necklaces are very delicate and almost angelic. I didn't know if I would be able to capture her essence, until I decided to pair them with something that I made. Suddenly, marshmallow entered my mind.
So here is my ode to you Deb, my ode to your fabulous work with some peppermint candy cane marshmallow.
A blog about all things fashion designer, including seeking art in daily life, appreciating great design, and discovering the pleasing nuances in the urban landscape. I also blog about architecture, interior design, contemporary art, accessories for the home, shopping in NYC, tips for looking good in layers, bargain finds, and my own private musings on the stop-start nature of the creative process.

an inspiring blogger collaboration
I have been thinking about this all day. I read this post on Bonbon Oiseau's blog this morning. And clicked through to Cannelle et Vanille to see what the shoutout was all about. I must quote here, because Aran of Cannelle et Vanille says it best. What a beautiful story. And such beautiful products by Deb and Aran. I am so inspired.
Hi Elaine- Thanks for mentioning this in your blog. It makes me happy to hear that my words might have an effect one someone. Thank you!
ReplyDeletethank you Elaine! I'm so glad you like Aran's work and were inspired buy the collaboration. She told me what she was making and we decided the palette would be red and white. (although I knew she would like some turquoise thrown in there!) fun huh? She is absolutely lovely...
