I must admit the French know how to wrap things up, and from what I hear, this is a tradition that started as early as the 18th century, during Louis XIV's reign when everything had to be aesthetically pleasant and a fitting representation of French style and taste. I have saved special boxes and bags from companies such as Lancel, Hermes, and many patisseries and chocolatiers in Paris.

Did you have time to actually look through this site? I know you referenced it for their packaging. If not, do spend a few free minutes browsing - it's not to be missed and their shop must be amazing as well.<br /><br /><br />The other site is http://www.lapatisseriebycyrillignac.com/ - not so much for site design as for their pastries - two of my favorites - Les Religieuses and La Tarte Citron.<br />Thank you for continuing to add visual stimulation to my mail box every day!sagenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-27022746918929923572012-01-30T13:38:49.386-05:002012-01-30T13:38:49.386-05:00What is it about a love of boxes?

I usually turn them into "Junk" sculptures.William Ternayhttp://postcardsfromphilly.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-20267765513051150912012-01-30T13:31:08.074-05:002012-01-30T13:31:08.074-05:00Just today while spending time organizing clutter ...Just today while spending time organizing clutter I began wishing that my daughter appreciated packaging: Whenever we gift her, I end up keeping the "paper trash" bc she will throw it away (perish the thought!) and fly off back home.

I bought one to see if I would like them. Well, while it looks very stylish, the ergonomics of the handle's shape did not work well with me.
