what’s going on
hi gang, hope you’re having a great week! we’ve been busy over here working on the website and trying to get things photographed and listed. today’s pics are two little peacock colored vases i got last month in paris. they are about as big as large eggs and incredibly delicate.
liz is having me shoot more mood shots instead of just dry images for the site so here are a couple. she was having a blue moment and i went with it. it’s a lot more fun to play when you have a friend to shoot with.
in other news, we have our winners from the drawing the other day! would the following two darlings send your email to me at claudia@theparisapartment.com asap?
judy from petitcreeklavender.com
and mari of way good day
if you didn’t win that once, guess what? glitteratti is giving us these two more books to play with! they’re sending them over for review and i’m giving them away! if you’d like a chance to win just say so!

Claudia,
Your peacock vases look gorgeous-what unique pieces!
Enjoy shooting your pics for the boutique. I think that’s probably my favorite part of selling online is the photographing, although if I were shopping for my items in Paris, it would definitely be shopping the fleas.
Have a great day!

The vases are just lovely. I love they are the size of egg, I keep shaping them with my had to visualise. The blue and gold are such lovely muted tones, that the pink gets to pop all on its own. Beautiful.
