Own Your Own Patisserie December Letter

Galeries Lafayette has maybe the most spectacular sapin de Noël (Christmas tree) ever.

What to say?

Beautiful reflections

Watch a short video on the installation of the tree.

E.T. mannequins throughout the store

Theme title, 'Noël d'une autre Planete'

Anything round and spherical caught my eye

Deluxe bags got black, muted spheres

A mini ET mannequin

Even a mini ET bear(peluche)

Outside French kiddies were having a ball.

Sparkle plenty

Underwater or intergalactic? Who cares.

There's a story here somewhere..

Across the street in Maison Lafayette, P. Herme has flying saucers on his Christmas macaron box perhaps by chance.

My favorite Alsacian gingery star cookies and Michel Cluizel chocolate star filled with bonbons

Alain Ducasse has a twirly chocolate tree I wanted to take home. I painted it instead.

Quite a few PBers wanted Christmas pet portraits..

I wanted to draw buche de Noël for the December Paris Sketch Letter..

Bear came up with the idea of a 'selfie', plus buches, plus a personalized letter with your name on the patisserie.

Et Voila!
