La Casa Pacifica

There are certain people you meet in your life that you know are special. I met Ninetta Herbert years back when we had Arbor. (Arbor was our family dream shop).
Ninetta is such a sophisticated and beautiful woman. I can talk to her for hours about details of papers, old antiques and festive tiny things. She and her husband live in the old Nixon estate in San Clemente, Ca. Some may know it as "La Casa Pacifica"
(The Spanish House)
Recently she requested a custom album to hold pictures of Nixon's China trip from 1972.
So, here it is!
We chose classy colors of Gold and Black...
My favorite part of making custom albums is knowing it's going to hold some unforgettable moments in a personal handmade album. This one not only moments, but History as well.

"Coco Before Chanel" - 15 More Days!

A few months back, Judith from Paris Atelier shared the exciting news of "Coco before Chanel" being released in France, and now it's finally our turn!
We have all been awaiting it's arrival~ Will be released in theaters on September 25th!
I thought the bio from last year was great, but I think this may be better!?
I've become a fan of Audrey Tautou who is playing as Coco, which makes me even more excited to see this movie.
If you have/haven't read Judith's post on this, go see or see again! It will get you even more excited along with more info on the movie and other great pictures!
Judith's Coco PostYes, I've got my favorite Trader Joes's popcorn stocked up and ready to pop in advance for the movie. It is OK to bring your own! This has the perfect buttery and salty combo you won't want the theatre yuk anymore. And even more, it's the perfect size, not too big or too small. That's why I pop one bag alllll for myself and never feel guilty. :)
~ Enjoy the Movie! ~
