This week has been a long and tiring one for me, several things have happened that have made it less pleasant than most and I’ve been left feeling a little bit empty. Even this morning as I left for french class, I think I had a little cloud hanging above my head. After class I tried to go shopping, nothing really interested me and I felt indesicive about everything. 
I just bought some more rosewater toner to replace my empty bottle. The only thing I was really attracted to was a Honey scented body milk, I tried a little bit on my palm and it still smells divine, like meadows and sunlight and warm afternoons.
This afternoon I felt much better though! I bought a chocolate icecream on the way home and sat down to watch an episode of the japanese drama ‘Honey and Clover’ it is so sweet! 
I didn’t really feel much for the anime, but I’m so excited about this adaption. Hagu is my favourite character, I feel a bit of kinship with her. I also recieved a really lovely email from someone that lifted my spirits and added the cherry on top of my afternoon. Isn’t it great how little things can completely turn a day around? I feel so warm right now, enveloped in the scent of honey.
Petit Miel’s first release is coming together slowly. 
I had a problem with the jewelry thread I was using so I’m going to replace it. I think the first release will be small items mostly, but thats the way I want to run it. Small limited releases or one off items, I think they will be more special that way and I love designing new things, its more fun than making repeats! Petit Miel means ‘little honey’ I chose the name because honey is sweet, but more soft and natural than sugar. My inspiration is a mixture of luxury and natural simplicity, Marie Antoinette and her ladies in fine silk gowns and pearls 
enjoying a garden picnic with beautiful cakes and sweets and rose petals everywhere. That is my Rococo dream.

I’ve always loved the smell of honey. My entire apartment smells like it now, because I am baking granola.
I really love honey milk bathes. They are so peaceful.
I’m glad your day turned around, and that you have that happiness.

I hope You are better now, but don’t worry we are all humans and sometimes we feel down; luckly there are those little things and people who lift us up!

haha don’t fret, for we all have little clouds of gray over our heads every once in a while. But it is true, when we stop to gaze and bask upon the little things, they can really brighten our day!
