I was thinking of setting up another blog to note all the best crafty or arty etc... places in London that I have actually been to for example Ye Olde Curiosity Shop ( oldest shop in London ) which is behind a few back roads at work,The cloth house, one of the most vintage and beautiful old cloth shops in Berwick street London, VV Rouleaux a wonderful ribbon and trimmings shop old fashioned too.. etc etc all these places are a stones throw from me, the only places I haven't come across yet are junk shops. They tend to be collectors outlets so expensive antique shops, although I have heard of some proper junk shops in Greenwich ( will have to check that out ) actually I think I will do that, It would make some gorgeous pictures too especially as I would have to add Covent Garden too which I walk through everyday..
I also have plans to pop over to France every once in a while ( it's only an hour or so away-Euro tunnel or ferry or plane ! wicked ) and do the same there too.. I have a book on Parisian markets that got me started, just think of the finds and the pictures ! Ok I've rambled on enough, I'm off to make plans !
Love your Etsy banner! Can't wait until it's up!! Have a good day, Lisa
