I couldn't very well keep the chateau's fabulous gift shop under my hat. It's the first thing you see while waiting to get your entry ticket and the last thing upon exiting the estate. Clever marketing.
Why not deck your chateau out in pink toile?
Or blue and white china?
With matching tapisseries coussins / cushions.
The chateau's emblem, the squirrel🐿 adorns multiple items.
Or you could for a glorious tapestry of the chateau itself?
Look! Miniature chairs for all my mini cakes to sit on
The gift shop is run by Countess Cristina de Vogüé, the daughter of an Italian diplomat and a Russian mother. She is married the heir to Vaux-le-Vicomte. She has applied her talents as a hostess not only to family receptions, but to the château’s restaurant and gift shop. And now she's coming out with a divine cookbook tomorrow,Decadent Desserts: Recipes from Chateau Vaux-le-Vicomte.It looks YUMMY! BONNE JOURNEE!
