Shopper’s Diary: Le Petit Atelier de Paris

From Julie:

Not far from last week’s Parisian Pied-a-Terre is Le Petit Atelier de Paris; a small workshop and boutique operated by two artists in the Marais. Their motto, “Du bonheur au quotidien” —”Happiness in the everyday”—is reflected in their charming, simple pottery and housewares.

Shopper’s Diary: Crown and Crumpet

From Sarah:

Not a doiley or lace curtain in sight at Crown and Crumpet, Amy and Christopher Dean’s latest venture. With a shared love of antiques, travel and tea, this bi-cultural couple (he’s a Brit and she’s a San Franciscan native) have given a modern stylish twist to the traditional tea salon. Their collective talents as an antiques dealer, prop buyer, and set dresser come together in this pretty Cath Kidston meets Vivienne Westwood glamour salon. Asides from tea, crumpets, and the like, they sell cups, saucers, and other tea accoutrements as well as eclectic pieces from their travels. They can be found at 207 Ghirardelli Square in San Francisco.
