Pylones

I was initially drawn but the bright colours in the window display — this is a wonderful shop with all sorts of gifts and household items that are bright, colourful, unusual & quirky.
A great place for fun gifts and stocking fillers for kids too.
Hidden at the back, by the tills are a tray of glass rings filled with coloured liquid & glitter — they are such fun & I will be back on payday to treat myself!!!

I like this place, I really do. Cute little novelty shop filled with fun, colorful goodies & nice staff. While it’s fun to wander about and see all the little kitchy things and marvel at all the neat-​o designs, I do find the prices to be a little out of whack. I had the pleasure of going into one of these shops while in Paris (the chain was founded in Paris, after all), but felt the merchandise there included a few things (some of which I actually purchased) that were unique and high enough quality to warrant a little greater outlay. Here, however, most of the goods were plastic and just didn’t look as though they’d survive the tests of time. I had wanted to get a few kid gifts before heading back to the states, but sadly I just couldn’t reckon quality and value sufficiently to get them anything from here. Definitely worth a look around, though, it’s a fun little shop with fun little things!
