Behind The Glass: Hand Painted Beauty

It's not very often that we get to showcase the side of our store, however Kelsey's hand painted windows are just too beautiful not to show off! We typically keep our window displays in the front of the store, but for Savannah's Fashion Night we wanted a storewide, all-encompassing presence that radiated beauty, fashion and jewels. In case you didn't get to see these beautiful paintings be sure to stop by and see them in up close!

The Perfect Loaf

Be prepared to bake a perfect artisan bread in your home! The Paris Market would like to introduce you to our new signature bread mix, Herbes de Provence Boule.

Last Friday, after a long week at the store, I woke up thirty minutes before everybody else. I mixed the bread mix with water, put it in a bowl and let it rise all day.

My day was going along and just like the dough, my excitement was rising.

I made a stop at a local grocery store, bought an amazing palette of french cheese, picked up some treasures and headed home for the last project of my week! It took me 45 minutes to have in my hands a perfect artisan bread, just like the best bakeries in France, but made by me. INCROYABLE!

It was an honor to share this beautiful bread with my friend. Simply a happy moment!

À bientôt,

Savannah's Fashion Night

In case you couldn't make it downtown last night, Savannah's Fashion Night was truly a wonderful evening filled with delicious food, good friends, lively music and of course, great fashion. The night started off with a bang and we continued to have a great turn out throughout the rest of the evening. We would just like to say thank you to Back in the Day Bakery and Susie Brown for all the delicious treats. And a big thank you to Erica Wilson of Found Jewelry, Meredith Anne Sutton and the ladies of BleuBelle Boutique for joining us last night with your amazing pop-up shops!

Postcards from Paris: {les habitants du village}

Often I remark negatively on routine, but on the other hand routine can be reminder of the secure things in our lives. Waking up with the sun pouring in through my glass ceiling has been something extraordinary these past couple of days, and I’ve made it my routine to visit the neighbourhood boulangerie to pick up something for my petit dejeuner. Since everyone is back from holiday and la rentrée has truly begun, everyone seems to be motivated by the new start of things.

I live in a little village of sorts, Villa des Ternes. It’s true that throughout Paris each quartier is somewhat like a village, but my little quartier is a smorgasbord of sorts when it comes to the architecture. Some buildings follow similarly to the Haussmann-style, but most differ and are unique assortments. There is a beautiful art nouveau-esque building with floral features and mosaic details on the building’s façade. Then a few doors down something that resembles more Art Deco, bold details and gold embellishments. On my little row of residences are brick A-frame ateliers. Once used as artists’ studios, the light pours in all hours of the day. Next door to me lives a painter named Babu. She offers me gateau that she’s baked and pineapple juice. A door next to her resides a pianist, and next to him an architect. It’s been amusing seeing who is up with the sun carrying their baguette as the start of their routine.

Bisous,
Reba
