A glimpse of some of the new products shown at Playtime Paris last week : a polar bear, a sleeping bag and a quilt hand embroidered, plus a series of small toys that I will show you very soon. As often in these fairs so rich in emotions, the reaction of my clients gave me [...]

Like the cherry in my garden and the thousands of cherries which have bloomed these past weeks in Japan, inspite of the crazyness beared by some of their inhabitants.

sunday morning
March 7th, 2011 by mapi
