La Maison du Roy, Passage Jouffroy 🎄

 

Christmas on ETSY

Time for more 

Jolly Christmas decorations 

Bits 

N’ bobs.

A good place 

To start Is 

La Maison du Roy.

Not just tree decorations

Something for calligraphers too 

So many bright, 

Shiny things 🌟 

By the way, they were playing the perfect background music 🎵 to entice you to buy - Gluck - Orfeo ed Euridice, Wq. 30, Act 1: "Chiamo il mio ben così ... Piangi.

And they had croissants 🥐 !

This fab shop is inside Passage Jouffroy in the 9th arrondissement (Metro Grands Boulevards ).

And a very good place to start exploring.

On ETSY

They are next to old-fashioned tea salon,

 Le Florentin,

Perfect for a yummy snack

 To restore yourself after hunting Christmas 🎄 décorations 

Or perhaps a fortifying vin chaud/spiced wine 🍷 

Across the hall, irresistible toy shop, PAIN D’ÉPICÉ .

I am always looking for the petite ourson/little articulated bear 🐻 I bought here eons ago. Why did I leave him behind in New York 😭 ? I brought the checked table with me (which I never use…and left dear Bear 🐻).

These bears have none of his elegance (plus they are 39€!) where he was a mere 3 bucks. The nonsense one remembers 🙄

If you have seen this petite ourson 🐻 Please 🙏 let me know. Desperately seeking…

Another place that did not have my bear 🐻 

You can even stay in this Passage at HOTEL CHOPIN 🎵

Wouldn’t that be a trip!
