Classic.

Wise words to live by! 

Calligraphy is a lost art.  It's time we all pulled out a little paper 
and an ink pen to recapture it.

Add a little light to all this black and white with a few candelabras!

It is said that black roses don't necessarily symbolize darkness or death,
but rather send a positive message of rebirth and new beginnings.

chocolat

So excited about our newly refurbished antique display cases.

they are a beautiful dark wood with thick glass and detail molding. This time
of year the store is a little emptier and there is space to move things around, paint and be more creative. These display cases and the color and light in the store reminded me of one of my favorite movies
'chocolat'. I think that movie was inspiration for opening Bella Luna. We don't sell chocolate (at this time) but we sell tea and candles and nice little home gifts and of course adornments. I love that she (Juliette Binoche)
doesn't just sell chocolate, she is intuitive, passionate and magical.
here she is setting up shop (my cases exactly!)




I can't remember the ending of the movie... does Johnny stay or not?
