I have a lot of hope. I have always had it.  Sometimes it fades away a little like winter, but like the seasons, I somehow can always count on its precious return.  For without hope, what have we?

I had the pleasure of listening to George Winston in concert .  What an quiet unassuming genius.  He walked on stage barefoot and proceeded to play the piano like it was his soul.  The music he creates is so beautiful that I cannot even explain what I feel.  I am transported by the melodies to a gentle, wonderful all embracing place of peace and beauty.  He is on YouTube at the end.

All of these lovely Etsy shops have delightful items that remind me of the delicate nature of hope..so fine, so fragile..soft opalescent pastels.h o p e .

"La vie est belle!" Life is beautiful! Patti

In The Mirror I See Not Me, But Glimpses Of My Wedding Day Dreams, Dreams Come True

When I was a little girl, I had a scruffy brown teddy bear that I named Petey.  He was the official groom in all my doll weddings.  Male dolls were in short supply back then.  He was quite the gigolo and married everyone of my dolls from Ginny, Barbie and I think even Raggedy Ann.  We always had a tea party reception afterwards.  It seems like only yesterday.  

Then I grew up and had real day dreams about my wedding.  I am lucky that they all came true.  That is what I wish for each of you.
Stop a moment from your busy day and enjoy the YouTube of Prince William and Kate's royal fairytale wedding. Always remember that nothing in life is perfect, and to know happiness and love, one must have known their opposites as well.  Even the royal wedding was bittersweet. It is what makes us stronger and the good more precious.

These wonderful Etsy artists, my friends and teammates,  have beautifully handcrafted items to make your wedding dreams come true. I know you will enjoy visiting a few!  

"La vie est belle!"  Life is beautiful!..and your wedding will be, too!  Patti xo. Loves Paris Studio
