Bonjour!

Found this beautiful shop today on the Viaducts de Arts in Paris!

The Happiness of Ladies - or en Francais - Le Bonheur des Dames.

What a lovely shop!

What a lovely name!

Lots and lots and lots of cross stitch and embroidery patterns!

And fabric - of course!

I bought five fat quarters of yummy red fabric for my stash!

Yes - that makes me happy!

Ont un jour heureux!

Frankie I Love you!

Those of you from Australia may know this magazine!

Frankie is the best!

Lots of indie stuff - often craft related.

I believe the Urban Outfitters in the US stock this great mag!

Don't you love this poster!

Claire Owen is one talented artist.

What about these bobbins!

I am aiming to buy some vintage braid to justify having some of these!

This is their etsy shop - I'm sure these bobbin gals will be in stock sometime soon!

Not my usual post but a least a little craft related!

Have a good day!

A wonderful find!

Not my usual post but wanted to share a lovely shop I found today!

In Lygon Street, Carlton, a new store has opened.

"Gewurzhaus", which means Spice Shop in German, opened just yesterday and it is an amazing

experience!

(Sorry, photo quality doesn't do the store justice!)

Aromatic spices of every kind!

Purchased in 10 g lots in beautiful black and white paper bags.

Salt from all around the world!

(Pretty pink stuff)

And beautiful storage ideas.

A bit vintage, a bit modern!

When next in the area, check it out.

Enjoy!
