April in Paris' New Creations
There is so much to be celebrated! Summer is around the corner, the store's 5th anniversary on April 28th, and, most importantly, the launch of our first home decor line, "Ma Maison". Needless to say, the entire section of "New Creations" will be dedicated to the sleek and timeless line so you can immediately start brainstorming new decoratives for "votre maison".

Custom table runner, vases and leather covered shelves...
> Do you ever wonder what decoratives would best enhance your 19th century oak finished desk? If so, imagine a custom table runner, crafted with the finest leather and designed to fit the form of your desk to perfection. With a myriad of different colors and choices of French calf, ostrich, or alligator who would have thought custom-made vase covers and shelves can be so much fun?

Lamp with sheepskin shade
> Lamps are one of the most important pieces in a study or on a desk. It's almost always the first thing you look for - it brings light and focus. So, have them custom-made to your liking: square, cyclinder, or even a flat rectangle. You'll probably start taking the time to enjoy the room the lamp is placed and, the sheepskin shade gives enough light for those hand-written thank-you notes, special occasions, and, with another turn the entire room is illuminated.

April in Paris' 5th Anniversary
>
On April 28th, we celebrated the store's 5th Anniversary and launched our first home furnishing line. The party was a success with a turnout of nearly 100 people. Our clients were simply thrilled with the line. There were also many new faces who came to support Beatrice which could only mean one thing--more people are aware of these beautiful traditional methods Beatrice is trying her very best to keep alive.

Tips from Beatrice
Simply look around and you'll find beautiful home embellishments for sale everywhere although, if you look close enough, you'll notice they are generally finished in metal, plastic, or wood. From a design standpoint, there are plenty of choices. But if a sophisticated finish and long-lasting superb craftmanship that resembles machine-made is your preference, made-to-order is the avenue.

> It's timeless and elegant
We all know leather bags and wallets look better with age. So just like your accessories, leather home decor is simply classic! The items are made from the most excellent leathers you can find and with Beatrice's 20 years of experience, your piece is sure to last for many graceful decades.

>It's custom-made!
You are the proud owner of a beautifully-made custom leather accessory and your face lights up everytime you use it. So why not introduce custom to your home? You'll feel all warm and fuzzy everytime you walk in the door.
Custom pieces are extra precious because you and the artisan share in the process of bringing it to life. It's your baby!

> Guise as an heirloom
So timeless are these pieces that they can easily be an heirloom! Really, forget about the typical pearls or brooches, passing on a custom-made ostrich vase or a custom alligator table runner sounds so much more exotic and precious and, let's not forget, avant garde!
