Well as you all know, I've met some incredible friends in Paris through my blogs, but now I've added some new amis through Facebook!
Shauna von Giesbrecht and I met through a mutual Paris friend in the fall so it was only natural that we planned a face to face meeting in January. Shauna, who hails from Vancouver, is a multi- talented artist. She not only designs and makes fabulous jewelry pieces but also creates the most marvelous handmade textiles. There will be more photos to come!
Mary, Peter and I visited her lovely little boutique in Montmartre the second day we were in Paris. After we'd oohed and aahed and tried on everything to our heart's desire, we trekked up the hill in the rain for a delicious lunch with Shauna. More on that great place another time. Be sure to visit her website to see her many delightful creations!

Just popped over to Shauna's website ~ ooh, her pieces are beautiful! I'm glad you caught up with her in Paris, V.
I recognized Shauna from your party-pics in Paris... She is quite an artist and I adore her jewelry! Great post and photos.

Ooh, ahh, putting this on my list! Lovely portrait, V -- and rouge to boot!!
What a great story. And what a talented artist.
I knew she was not french when I saw that gorgeous smile showing her pearlie whites. She is a very talented lady.
Sounds like a wonderful day! She looks so nice. :)
What a fabulous smile she has!
Can you believe some people think blogging is a waste of time?
You certainly have met some interesting people V!!!
As mentioned, I was there ... and I can confirm that I was really impressed by Shauna and her work!
Shauna does indeed have a beautiful smile—and plenty to smile about: She's very talented and she lives in Paris! So glad you got to meet her, V.
How interesting! How did she ever end up in Paris from Vancouver? Lucky girl!!
I am so glad you all have gotten to meet Shauna and see her marvelous work!
