Merci, the very trendy concept store in the Marais, has the most wonderful displays. Maybe it's the former teacher in me, but I wanted one in every color!
At first glance I thought that these were rods of glass rather than pencils. This shot makes me want one of the bright vases stuffed with all the colors -- all sharpened of course! G
Hi Virgina, I've mentioned you in my latest blog post because I really admire your blog and as part of the "One Lovely Blog Award" I thought of your blog. You can read more about it and your blog on mine.
My all time favorite street in Paris is a little one called the rue Pont Louis-Philippe, off the Marais, where many shops specialize in special pens, papers and blank books for writing. Your photo reminds me I'm due for a trip.
Moi aussi, je veux bien un crayon de chaque couleur! Je suis aussi un professeur à la retraite! Mes élèves auraient pu faire de beaux dessins avec ces crayons de couleurs!
Love all these colors:)

This photo is just plain pleasing to my senses—of order, of color, of aesthetics—and so beautifully composed! Thanks, V (must check out this store).
ReplyDeleteMoi aussi -- give me one of each! Gorgeous pencil rainbow.
ReplyDeleteYes, please! I'll be outside warming up the Fiat while they ring these up for you, V.
ReplyDeleteI am SO bummed that I never made it to Merci, especially now seeing this fabulously colorful display you captured. I'll meet you there next trip!
ReplyDeleteThat was my reaction ... I want one of each and I am not a former teacher ..
ReplyDeleteJolie! (or should this be masculine?)

ReplyDeleteGreat shot Virginia with " de très belles couleurs" (with a "u" after "o").
ReplyDeleteThanks Laurent, i can't seem to get it altogether at the same time. I count on all of you to keep me on my toes!

Okay, V—almost said something, so next time I will.
