Ah, Printemps!

We’ve combed the countryside for our latest gathering of beautiful springtime accoutrements & décor

& along the way we also found the

perfect symbol of Spring… K i t e s !!!!!

Only Karen of Café Paperie can come up with these brilliant ideas, time after time, & this time - she’s taken kites where they have never flown to before…designer, hand-painted, hand-cut, couture k i t e s, unlike any you’ve ever seen.

Come in to find the one that has your name on it & then -

on a perfect Spring day when the breeze picks up...

Let it fly, let it fly!

Spring Forward!

Oh, how we love clocks, timepieces, hour glasses & sun dials for the fabulous visual presentation they make!
Whether you feature one grand timekeeper or arrange a compilation of whimsical clock parts & fragments; from pendulums, wind-up keys & bezels to all the inner workings, the subject of time as a decorative focal point always makes for a fascinating display.
(Probably because no matter how we try, we can’t slow it down!)
Come in soon & take in the extensive assortment we have gathered for you & maybe you’ll find the perfect chronometreur for your unique décor…
Only time will tell.
