For Christmas 2015, Le Bon Marché Rive Gauche invited Mon Petit Art to move into the Galerie Imaginaire for two months. Since the very beginning, Mon Petit Art has sold its creations in this legendary Parisian department store in the 7th arrondissement. But this time, we were able to display and stage them in a beautiful 20 m² space: quite a challenge!

So there we were, with a space to fill with plenty of imagination, beautiful colours and a touch of magic, to immerse visitors in the world of Mon Petit Art… In an enchanted forest, between two twinkling stars, our creations blended into a fairytale Christmas setting.

Our installations were made exclusively with Mon Petit Art creations, without adding any other products or materials. The objects echo one another in a refined universe of black and gold… Ready for a stroll through the Galerie Imaginaire?

This impressive origami ball is made of more than 600 cranes, folded with every Mon Petit Art origami paper! A meticulous piece of work, made with lots of love and patience among friends and family: everyone did their bit to fold these little cranes. Hanging at the entrance of the Galerie Imaginaire, this huge multicoloured ball could be seen from the store entrance and drew many eyes… It seems to float in the air as if by magic!

The Jardin Secret set includes three pots to decorate yourself; here, we multiplied the pots to cover a whole table! A magical forest? A floating garden? A mountain of greenery? Vines and leaves intertwine in this superb composition.

On a golden catwalk, slender Haute Couture models wear dresses worthy of a real fashion show! Their superb outfits were designed for the occasion and made entirely with the elements of the kits: fine tissue paper, shimmering iridescent paper, sparkling stickers… These beautifully dressed dolls follow one another in a stunning parade.

Hanging from the ceiling, the Bird House cages sway gently… We added golden branches to give the setting a fairytale touch. On another table, the Pikados pile up into a huge ball reflected in the golden table. These wooden toys, created by the artist Gonzalo Arbutti, cling to each other like burdock burrs, a funny little plant…

It isn't Christmas at Le Bon Marché every day, but Mon Petit Art creations are available all year round in our e-shop!
