In love with Fuchsia

I thought I would share with you one of the many things that inspire me: the work of other professionals in the industry. I do a lot of research and trying to predict the next trend is my business.

All of the confections were made by my Grandma, LaVerne, quite the french baker! She makes all the sweets for all of my events! You should see her Parisan macaroons...

Vintage Ribbon Stars
