My daughter and I were visiting Paris and I have been following this shop for years. So we signed…read moreup for an atelier - and made origami Butterflies.

There's really nothing I love more than wandering down a Parisian sidestreet that I know little…read moreabout and discovering an atelier where gorgeous things are being made. Add to that a propped open door, an inviting owner, adorable, delicate, hand-made objects on display and for sale and I'm in heaven! This small ceramics workshop/boutique is owned by Madame Garrigues, a lovely woman who designs and makes all of the ceramics by hand by herself. She's obviously very skilled technically but has a fabulous, modern eye for color and shapes that infuse humor and light into her work. Her simple but very spirited collection includes pastel colored spoons, lattice-worked plates, tiny cork-stopper flasks, and even super thin light fixtures. The prices are very reasonable: I picked up a little flask that I plan on using as a tiny vase for 20E that is just too cute to be true. She also does weekend workshops for anyone who wants to learn how to make their own ceramics. Typically the door is closed while she's working but she said it's ok to knock on the door and she'll let you in to explore and shop.

this was my absolute fave gift/stationary shop in all of Paris.

Lots of really clean design, pricepoints are manageable, staff seems ultra cool but not in a snobby way.

We were walking down one of Paris' many streets and we stumbled upon Papier Tigre. Not much to look…read moreat from the outside, but on the inside is a stationery person's dream. There are all these little cute binders, notebooks, pins, pens, desk lamps. Although a small store, I could have spent at least 30-45 min in there just perusing their goods. I ended up getting a beautiful journal with a "pen band" to hold the pens I would use with the journal. I also got a rotating calendar that shows the fruits and vegetables that are in season at the time. There was a beautiful desk lamp in the shape of a book that turns on when you open it and turns off when it's closed. So beautiful. Their products remind me of similar things you might find in a Japanese stationery store. You want to know what the best part was? They gave us a reusable bag after our purchase to carry our items!

Very cool paper and souvenir shop. Lots of artistic and unique items. It's a bit cramped but…read morethere's lots to see.

Thankfully I'm not one so I just found the largest mailing tube that they carried (no one else has a larger one, or even one of that size) and carried it out.
