First comes the flower shop, so overwhelmingly beautiful, I suggested I move in but the girl was busy cutting stems off some big coral dahlias and don't think she heard me. We are at Merci and just through the next door...
a walk into the central hall and many things to wish for...
I loved the jewels they carried although of course thought they needed some bonbons...
and then after looking carefully at every well chosen object in the shop and moved by the beautiful and thoughtfully curated collections, I sunk into the cafe, a part of the shop, for a bit of quiet time. I sketched a little and thought up some new ideas for some new graphics and packaging for bonbon and met four other designers there for fashion week and we talked about the shows and what we did and exchanged cards.Next time you are all coming with me.

Such a great place... Thanks for showing us around, Deb. And of course I'm ecstatic that your bonbons are going to be at Merci - and not surprised at all. It is a beautiful space - much like your work.
