Petit Pan

2011-07-04T01:31:00.000-07:00

I have written about this shop before, it still is one of my favourites in Paris. I like the colourful fabrics, the cute childrens clothes and pretty decor. They have several shops in Paris, these pictures where taken in rue Francois Miron, they have two shops there, one with home decoration, clothes and toys and the other one is a mercerie where you can buy fabrics, ribbons, buttons and more cuteness.

What I like about Paris is that you can find the best shops in the tiniest back streets, you have to make a little detour but it's almost always worth it. This small shop is packed with a carefully selected collection of children's clothes, shoes and lots of decoration items and toys. You can find her products from for example Fifi Mandirac, Bobochoses, April showers and much more...

IE boutique

2011-06-13T03:38:00.000-07:00

This must be one of my favourite shops in Paris, it's so hard to leave this shop empty handed. This shop is filled with colorful items that the owners brought back from their trips to Asia, the have some really nice kids clothes designed by japanese stylist/ textile designer Noriko Shiojiri and a beautiful fabric collection hard to choose from. So if you are into colours and fabrics and like a touch of Asia this is a muct visit shop.

2010-04-01T05:36:00.001-07:00

I think I already told you that rue Francois Miron is my favourite street in Paris, it's a street filled with lovely shops and a new one there is this shop Mandorla Palace. A shop full of poetic items to decorate a (kids) room. One of the designers who sells her work there is Olivia from Yumyum creations, she makes these pretty mobiles, don't you love that sweet umbrella with the bird on top! Other designers you can find there are Le coq en pate, Donna Wilson and Trousselier.

I have read a lot about this shop and the idea behind it, selling secondhand, designer collections and more and also support a goog course. I was really looking forward on going to this store and I must say the building is really great and the shop is nice but not a wow.....

La Droguerie

2010-02-22T04:18:00.000-08:00

An other magical place in Paris ( for those who like textile crafts) la Droguerie, a shop filled with perfect wools, lots of pots full with beads, ribbons, applique and so much more. The shop is located at nr. 9 and 11 rue du Jour very near Les Halles. The shop is quite small and filled with plenty and is very popular and sometimes very busy . If you like a more open space but don't want to miss out on all these goodies you can visit la Droguerie in le Bon Marche at the top floor. If you are at le Bon Marche don't forget to go to the books department in the soutterain where they have a nice craft/sewing book collection.
