création à Paris
It’s a chilly but partly-sunny Sunday in Paris….my boyfriend is out of town, stores are closed….what am I going to do?!
As you know, I LOVE local markets. And there was one that I had seen signs for, but never visited, so I biked over to the nearby Marché de la Création, near Gare Montparnasse in Paris’ 14th arrondissement. The market is open every Sunday – good to know if you’re looking for something to do on a quiet Sunday. And a good place to buy handcrafted Parisian goods at affordable prices.
This is just a sampling of what I found:
I hopped on a Velib’…
…and 10 minutes later I was at the marché de la Création.
There were dancing horse statues.
A million hats to choose from.
Very cool art deco-style handmade stained glass panels.
Vibrant scarves.
More animal statues (this time closer to life-sized).
Some ‘big’ jewelry (sorry it’s blurry!).
And plenty of paintings – these two are MY FAVES!!!
Next time you find yourself in Paris on a Sunday, swing by and check it out!
À bientôt,
k.
