Chichi Boutique - Room 8











This is my favorite room and I have just redone it all. I made all the magazines, books, perfume bottles, ribbons and the tiny soaps (about the size of a large lentil!). I named it Chichi Boutique and although it started off as a craft room it evolved into a bit of everything I like including fine bone china, porcelain and perfume bottles. I made all the labels for the Chanel bottles and painstakingly cut them out and gave them a gold border.... lost many of them along the way...The book on the counter is the story of Marie Antoinette's Perfume maker. Guerlain have a perfume named after her garden at the Trianons which is called "Les Jardins De Bagatelle". I also make all the handbags with leather bags I purchased and cut up. The burgundy one on the left is real snake skin.
