Fabulous images I am so envious. When in May is the Place de Bastille brocante on? Please tell me it's the first 2 weeks

Hi! Just discovered your site on My Melange. Great pics! I used to live near Batignolles in '94. Too bad the brocante won't be on when I visit Paris at the end of May. When is the one in Bastille?

The baby basinette with the purple tulle is quite cute. Perfect for dolls!

I was just on facebook and saw that you were out and about in the sunshine enjoying a brocante and quickly I switched over here!! A doll repair shop and I love the sign advertising -- vintage quaintness!! I love that baby's bed -- it's gorgeous. You always find the most interesting things to share...and I love the news agents with that magazine -- the black Kennedy huh?? Why haven't I heard that one before?!
Can't wait to see more photographs -- I'll be back!!!
