Paris: Day 3, Wednesday.

Day 3

Wednesday

This was our last full day to do things before we went to the trade show on thursday, so we made the most of it! 

- Starting the day off sight seeing at the Louvre with lovely macaroons. 

Paris: Day 2, Tuesday.

Day 2

Tuesday

We started the day off by visiting:

- Musee d'Orsay. Great for the architecture and historical pieces of art. It is in a super fancy area which was great to be in considering our hostel was in a bit of a run down, dodgy place. 

Paris: Day 1, Monday.

I am back from Paris and have lots to show you all! I am going to blog about it in days otherwise the blog post would be super long as we fitted A LOT in. 

Day 1

Monday

Not much is open in terms of shops, cafes and restaurants on Mondays in France as it is like their Sundays so we decided to go sight seeing and be proper tourists! 

Starting with...

- Sacré-Cœur (roman catholic church)it was AMAZING, the steep stairs leading up to it seem impossible but it is well worth the exercise once you see how beautiful this building is and the view from the top! Super lovely.

Safari Adventure/Block Printing

Pantone Colours/Concept board/Collage

I started a new project this week, and called it 'Safari Adventure'. I'm using slow crafting techniques such as collage and Lino Printing to produce an interior outcome for children's rooms and nurseries. I printed the Lino on paper but plan on printing it onto natural linen as think this would look quite nice.
