Eva Ollivero Donzino
In other words, the grace of decoupage

"It's actually in the name and in the memory of Margherita, Ollivero's unforgettable grandchild who died at the age of 15 taken away by a dreadful disease, that the grandparents tirelessly work so that huge gap left some years ago could be filled with a memory of the good past time and recognized as the incentive to beauty, truth, right."

Margherita lives again in Bibiana
The memory that doesn't die, that is the grace of decoupage

"In the Town Hall of Bibiana there is a room which has the name of a flower: Margherita (daisy). She was a woman's faded bud at the age of 15. Her name was Margherita Ravano Ollivero and she had a smile that defied life. In Bibiana there is a room dedicated to that smile and a project that wants to take it around the world. The keepers of this dream are her grandparents, who don't surrender and defy death…."
