These are awesome! I love all that Japanese 'kawaii' overly saccharine cutesy stuff. It's just so colorful and happy.

I can never decide which of your posts I enjoy most -- the ones with the wild, contemporary, hugely imaginative images like this one or the ones above with the elegant antiques (especially those shells!) And that birdhouse -- looks like a little fairy should move in and take up residence... Tinkerbell's mansion! What a joy to take a workday break and visit Paris with you!

Those meeses are adorable. Speaking of bright, pop decor, we found another one of those stores with all the brightly colored housewares and bought a few tiny things to fit in our bags. I got some chopsticks with horns, a magnet, some cards... If only there was more room in our luggage.
