Guest this week: la marquise des anges

Since I discovered this shop, I follow it, and is one of my favorites!
I could not host it on my blog!
Sabine is a very sweet girl from France, and takes care of her beautiful Etsy shop: la marquise des anges ♥

"la" sabine behind la marquise des anges

I am a 34 years old and married to a very patient and supportive husband. I am also the proud owner of two naughty cats and one loving dog. Before embarking on my Etsy business, I worked in International Trade and later in Tourism Industry . The work was exciting, but left little time for a private life. I also love to read, cook, dance, craft, laugh, and I must say I am passionated by almost everything.... :-)

how did the adventure begin ...

I have an addiction for all things "crafty and creative" and has had this creative appetite since I was a little girl. I embellish, adorn, sew, create all the time. First I made things for myself , then my folks and then requests from friends and friends of friends, etc. People in her life continued to encourage Sabine to being her own boutique, especially her husband. She says, "One day I woke up and told myself, 'let's start this new adventure.'

Not only I feel "alive" when creating, I also feel "alive" in the midst of running my own business. Even when things are stressful and moments aren't "heaven on earth," I feel so excited and motivated. I relish how I feel/sense each cell in my body ... I . enjoy making my very own decisions and above all I love to be in contact with so many great people.

La marquise des anges name and a little anecdote :

marquise means "marchioness" , it is a noblewoman ranking above a countess and below a duchess.
and ange means ... angel.
la marquise des anges could be translated as the machioness of angels.
it comes from an old movie, a little old fashioned but it is related to one of my very very favorite childhood memory ...when I was sitting on a decades old sofa, in between my beloved grand father and grandmother...watching this movie (it is a serie of movies) which was my grandfather's favorite ..; each year we used to had this little precious traditional momen together.
when I close my eyes and remember this lovely moment, I can feel my grand mother 's hand on my knee with tenderness, I can smell her fragrance, a combination of lavender and homemade apple pie, as weel as the sweet blend of my grand father's tobacco pipe ...
