Packed with Love

I love packaging!

Maybe because I like Christmas or because I like receiving gifts! haha!

Packaging something makes it more special.

That is why I package each of my handmade creations individually, just as each one has it's own name.

Petit Plume is truly made for you with love!

Enjoy!

Excerpt from The Little Prince

Here is a little excerpt from the book, since many people have not heard of it before ;)

So Sweet, it could be a vow.

Antoine de Saint-Exupery, from The Little Prince

“Go and look again at the roses. You will understand now that yours is unique in all the world.”

The little prince went away, to look again at the roses.

“You are not at all like my rose,” he said. “As yet you are nothing. No one has tamed you, and you have tamed no one. You are like my fox when I first knew him. He was only a fox like a hundred thousand other foxes. But I have made him my friend, and now he is unique in all the world.”

And the roses were very much embarrassed.

“You are beautiful, but you are empty,” he went on. “One could not die for you. To be sure, an ordinary passerby would think that my rose looked just like you – the rose that belongs to me. But in herself alone she is more important than all the hundreds of you other roses: because it is she that I have watered; because it is she that I have put under the glass globe; because it is she that I have sheltered behind the screen; because it is for her that I have killed the caterpillars (except the two or three that we saved to become butterflies); because it is she that I have listened to, when she grumbled, or boasted, or even sometimes when she said nothing. Because she is my rose.”

And he went back to meet the fox.

“It is the time you have wasted for your rose that makes your rose so important,” said the fox.

“It is the time I have wasted for my rose – ” said the little prince, so that he would be sure to remember.

“Men have forgotten this truth,” said the fox. “But you must not forget it. You become responsible, forever, for what you have tamed. You are responsible for your rose...”

“I am responsible for my rose,” the little prince repeated, so that he would be sure to remember.

In other news... 80 more days until the big day! Yay!

90 Days (actually 89!) haha!

Just went to "norcal" for a wedding this past weekend and spent some good quality time with friends!

Phew! It was time to take a break and rest for a little bit, but it is so hard to get back into the working schedule..Ahh!

Still a lot to do, but I have realized that it is really important to take time out to really think about what is important and prioritize!

Still can't believe I'm getting married! I'm going to be making my decisions with another person! Wow! At this point, many things are up in the air! I guess this makes things exciting?

Well... we took engagement photos and that was an interesting and fun experience! I couldn't stop laughing, so I'm hoping that all my photos don't look the same..haha!

Anyways, here's a sneak peak from Lovely Leaf! Thanks Alice and Serena and Wilmarose!

100 Days!

Today marks 100 days until THE Big Day!!

Eeek!

I am going to try to keep an update on things here every 10 days... Let's see how it goes! haha!

These days, I am pretty busy making things for RUCHE!

Here is a little peek at the craziness!

These little fingers of mine are going through a battle!

It has been fun working with friends and creating these pretty little things!

In terms of wedding plans, next thing up is.... The Engagement Session!

Anabel, one of my bridesmaids and blogger for 3 Letter Words, and I went shopping yesterday for some outfits. The girl has some great style and I think I feel more confident about wearing these pieces... I am hoping it will come out well..hah hahh..

Even though I grew up with a photographer dad, I am SO not the model-type! I would rather be the one to pose other people or help them with their makeup and hair. I am getting kind of nervous already thinking about being in front of a camera.

Well... Daniel and I are in the hands of some talented people, so I think it should be great!

Shout-outs to Lovely Leaf Studios, Studio205 films and Lovely Jubilee!

Thanks everyone!

So next Tuesday we will be shooting in Downtown Santa Ana.- Historic and Artistic. Bricks and Foliage.

Me and Daniel's first date was at Original Mike's. Yes...it is pretty random..and I'm not sure if we both knew it was a date...puahaha!

and if you remember my photo shoot from the Winter time, we will also be shooting here:

Wedding Preview!

Wow! It has been some time since I last blogged! My sincere apologies! Such a crazy busy time planning and running my businesses!
