If you are looking for a cute gift for someone, this fun little shop is a great option to consider in the Batignolles neighborhood. They offer a wide range of beautifully curated items, including stationary, mugs, jewelry, candles, framed prints, and other odds and ends. They also have a cute selection of greeting cards. The items available tend to evolve throughout the year and the seasons.
Even when you don't have a specific occasion to shop for, it is very enjoyable to just stop by and have a browse. However, this can be dangerous too, as the store owners have done a good job of making you want to buy everything in the store. In addition, it is common to see something cute during one visit, and then notice that they no longer have it when you go back, which further motivates you to buy something you like just so you don't miss out on it potentially forever.
The things you'll find here tend to be on the pricey end, but I think the idea is really that you are coming here to find something special and unique as a gift for a friend, as opposed to bargain-hunting. It is possible to find a very small gift for under 10€, such as a small notebook that fits in the palm of your hand, but if you are looking for anything bigger than a stocking stuffer, you should be prepared to spend 25€ or more (especially for anything not made in China). I have found that on the right-hand side of the shop (when you first enter the shop) they tend to have the most expensive items in the store, such as handmade jewelry, cloth goods, scarves, bags, etc., whereas the other side of the store contains more novelty items and gifts for a younger crowd (mugs/bowls in a fun color scheme, cute stationary, Korean sponges shaped like avocados, etc.).
If you let them know that the articles you're buying are a gift for someone, they do a good job of preparing and gift-packaging your purchase, including removing price tags (often times the price tag is just penciled in so they erase it). The staff are very polite and friendly. American Express accepted. read more
