be still my heart
Yet another chocolate preview: Megan & Sarah of Treeo Design put up a little page featuring the boxes—click and revel in the recycled paper gorgeousness!
There is no reason to post it here except that I am just dying to share the prettiness with everyone. 12,000 of them will be delivered tomorrow, I am trembling with excitement (and my bank account is just trembling…). I know it’s silly how I am so obsessed with everything associated with this project, but it represents pretty much a year of my life all finally coming to fruition this month, so please excuse my gushiness for the next few weeks.
ALSO! My sweet friend Maresa made these porcelain half-pint containers, and I am absolutely in love with them.
I’m trying to convince her to start marketing them for real, wouldn’t you buy one to put your farm-fresh cherry tomatoes and things into? Here they are holding Raspberries de Pizan, little raspberry chocolates with balsamic vinegar and pepper. I’ll tell you a secret though–these are fakes, they are just hollow shells. I got really tired at this point in the photo shoot and started faking things. But still, so pretty!

megan and sarah’s LL page looks so great and maresa’s containers are precious! yay chocolates!
Yes, I need one of those half-pint’s! Please convince. Those choc’s look awesome! Nice job.
If Maresa makes more of those, I will buy them. If she doesn’t, I will be FORCED TO STEAL because they are teh awesome. I’m serious–the first time I saw that photo I thought “where did lagusta get that!! [drool].”
AND the boxes are gorgeous. The phrase “shrinkwrapped in 50’s” will be forever part of my mental landscape.
