Sorry for my vanishing act last week, I got
quite ill and I just could not face the computer, despite the allure of sharing some
pretty things with you! My London posts are coming to a end and after
this post I have one more to share.
These photos
capture some rather lovely places and things I saw. Portobello Road
in Nottinghill is always a favourite as the brooch selections are some of the
best I have ever seen. If you wonder just off Portobello away from the
mad humdrum and tourists (I don't consider myself one) to Kensington Park Road,
you land in a lovely local haven. Nottinghill ladies and gents
lunching and walking their pooches. Couverture and the Garbstore is a gem that is full of all the things we ogle over on the
internet! I particularly loved the masks from Lucille Michieli.
These photos are from their blog...
Another winner was
Cass Art in Hampstead! Oooooh - I was in heaven! Stationery and art supplies
in their numbers made this pencil nerd way too overexcited. I bought some
awesome fabric markers as well as quirky cards and notebooks from Donna Wilson.
Hobby Craft or
craft mecca as some may know it is another HUGE store made up of two storeys of craft
supplies for every type of thing you can imagine. From baking, to taping
you name it, they have it!
Hope you enjoyed these and have a happy Monday!
