Today, at the flea market at St. Ouen I fell in love with the shop Daniel et Lili and I’m sure I’m not the first. It is stuffed to the brim, floor to ceiling, with clear plastic boxes full of buttons, hair clips, combs, earrings, beads, vintage ribbon, wallpaper, decals of all sorts of monuments in Europe, plastic bangle from the 70s and 80s (including some florescent colors I haven’t seen SINCE the 80s), cards, religious icons of the Mother Mary and misc. paper goods (more on that later).
I spent two hours looking at everything twice. A designer’s dream — a museum of sorts to accessory deign in the last hundred years. I felt like I was stuffing my face with the best buttery croissant except it was plastic bric-a-brac and paper goods I was gorging on. I ended up with red paper lobsters, gold paper elephants, tiny pink pigs, elegant blue and pink paper lovebirds nesting, cowboys, circus animals, christmas trees (in multiples), a decal or two, easter bunnies in elegant pastels, some interesting cards that I bought for their folds (they might become Abigail Stationery cards someday) and two pink art deco-y combs that made me feel cool and sexy in 90 degrees.
I’ll post images of all the loot as soon as I am home in Brooklyn with my scanner. UPDATE — Here they are!

Boa noite, desculpe o encomodo, mas entrei neste site lili et daniel, mas não encontro e-mail deles para contato. Tenho interesse em comprar galalith. Por acaso não tens o e-mail deles? Ou saiba algum outro lugar onde comprar galalith?
