They also sell a few pieces of jewelry and several accessories that you'll wish were big enough for your adult sized self. Prices are super reasonable and I left with three cute little decorative items for around 14 euro. An added bonus, this neighborhood is amazing and borders the best Papeterie street in Paris!

What I love about the shop is that there's something for every age, and that they specialize in green toys, like the beautiful wooden sets from Plan Toys, a great brand that's kind of hard to track down in Paris.

Owned by the same person as Objet Celeste, the jewelry and lighting across the street, Ursa Minor carries her keen eye to the rest of the home, specifically the kids room with pastel colored hanging mobiles, paper maché flowers, quirky bookshelves, woven baskets, paper streamers and knitted flag garlands. Every which way you look there is something original and incredible to add some pop and personality to your kids room, but not just. You could really accent the rest of the home with the stuff too. I picked up some fantastic pillows for my son's room at 18E a piece that would look amazing on a reading chair or couch as well. Aside from the great decor, there's also a well-edited selection of toys, clothes and accessories, like hand-crocheted tiaras painted in delicate pastel colors, do-it-yourself plane kits and ceramic dishes. As if that weren't enough the saleswoman who works there is a total sweetheart! Really a five star establishment in every sense of the term! And after your shopping spree you can pick up a slice of gluten-free cheesecake at Helmut Newcake across the street.

They have since said they've shipped it to me, but that was weeks ago, and they have not provided any tracking info. We'll see. After more than two months and several emails, I have received the missing piece and have updated my score to reflect this. They made things right, and this must be noted. However, action wasn't taken until after I posted reviews, even after many emails, so I cannot give them a higher score than three stars.
