Being a Book Fairy and some Ordinary Sparkling Moments
Thursday, August 12, 2010Being entrusted with a treasure like the *Ordinary Sparkling Moments* and being book fairy for the 100 Book Project is a beautiful responsibility. After sitting on the book for a really long while, all the time debating if I should leave this amazing book in a store for someone to pick it or if I should carry it to Bhuj or if I should leave it in a friend’s house at a party; there was one face, rather there were these 2 faces that kept popping up in my mind. So for once instead of going by the book (and after crossing checking with Christine M.M.) I went with my gut & decided to give the book to these 2 amazing artists & creative power houses, Colette Austin & Yvonne Shekhawat. I have known Colette for many years now & everyone in advertising knows them for their iconic work that have built brands for over 2 decades. And for all this they are the sweetest and the most genuine & soft spoken people I have had the privilege of knowing. The bonus is that you will also get to see glimpses of their huge old world heritage meets uber chic office “Colette & Yvonne” which was the backdrop for this episode of the 100 book project.








Close to the heart is how Colette & Yvonne held 'Ordinary Sparkling Moments', the cirlce was closed & a bookfairy slept well that night.
And because I know you must all be itching to have a better look at Colette's & Yvonne's office coming up is a small post on it :)
