Dark Chocolate for the Eyes









Just more gorgeous designs at Deco Decouvert captured on my cell phone while shopping. Who are you magical elves spinning these wonderful colours and patterns on random pillow cases and other textiles? I wish you could sign your name and claim your glory but alas, I know what it's like to be the silent creator behind the branding. Anyways, keep on shining, whoever you are!

More of Paris, ENCORE POTIRON PARIS!

http://www.potiron.ca/Today, a friend of mine told me to have a look at this website : potiron.ca!  Well, little did I know, it seems that my brother in law gave to my love and I for Christmas, a Potiron.ca tea mug set from Potiron Paris!  Oh yes!  From Paris!  I fell in love with this website!  You don't just fall in love with PARIS, you fall in love with everything else that comes from PARIS!  Ah oui!  Toujours Paris!  Talk about creativity!  They have such a great selection of different items for bathroom (one of my favourites...), kitchen (MY favorite!), bedroom (lets not go there, shall we...), all the rooms you can think of!  I am now addicted to POTIRON PARIS!  Oh!  And don't look for expresso cups, it's in English here, so you have to look for ESPRESSO CUPS! hihihi!  Everything you need or dream of to decorate your house!  Well, they are suppose to open a boutique in Montreal, so lets go crazy here!  Lets go spree shopping on the website or at their boutique and I'm pretty sure they will come up with even more very soon!  Aaaaaaaah Paris!  Je ne me lasserai jamais de toi!  http://www.potiron.ca/

Dearly Beloved,

We are gathered here today to announce the blessed union of 3D and CS5! The perfect marriage of rendering your 3D models directly in Photoshop while considering their materials and everything! Click the link in "labels" just below and go crazy!
Thanks Guillaume, bless your Parisian accent and your will to save my 3D skills from dying at work. I read it and haven't had a chance to play with it yet because my computer was lagging as it is not 64 bit and I have a feeling this requires performance with all the capabilities I saw in the tutorial. I should try my Mac Book and see if I have better luck. I must push my side projects aside, rent the kids a nice 3D film this Friday and try illustrating something more girly than a car. It even Ray Traces apparently. Oh the possibilities.
