A gesture
that expresses the
French flair of living...
Living with
style.
Presentation
transforms an event, day, object, or gift
from the ordinary to the sublime,
and creates a memorable vision
for the eyes, for the heart,
and, for the
spirit.
Following the example of
French presentations,
I decided to create
gifts that
say
Valentine's Day!
A small gift
dressed in white textured gift wrap,
tied with silky pink ribbons, and
adorned with a hand-stamped
French-script pink feather and
white Murano glass heart
invites the receiver to
linger over the
wrapping,
and
the presentation creates
a Valentine's gift
of whatever
lies inside.
The addition of a simple heart
transforms any gift into a
Valentine's gift
of love.
Soap becomes a
miniature painting
of the Eiffel Tower
or
A painting of a flower garden
visited by an exquisite
dragonfly.
Anticipation is
heightened by presentation and
an actual event, day, or gift
becomes even more
special.

Just the addition of a rustic wire heart
entwined with the remnants of a former plant
lifts the small lobelia flower from a simple
beautiful bedding plant to a
special gift that evokes
an expression of
love.
Special gifts do not have to cost a lot.
A four-inch bedding plant
lovingly tended and fertilizer fed
becomes a very special gift
with just a little extra
flair.
Presentation transforms a moment into
a priceless memory
filled with
love.
