If you love fabulous stationery shops jam packed with awesome goodies (I do!) this place is like heaven. I had been hoping to draw Jayde Leeder's Little Paper Lane for a few weeks and to catch the lovely Christmas themed windows but things have been a little crazy (really, why am I surprised by this?!). As luck would have it, my little girl had a birthday part in Mona Vale on Saturday so I had a chance to sketch the cute facade with fluro trees and Santa letterbox between party drop off and pick up.
I particularly liked the woven hanging baskets out the front and will have to head back when we move house to scout out some wonderful items for my new home.
Litte Paper Lane can be found at Shop 5/1 Waratah Street, Mona Vale (Northern Beaches, Sydney) or you can buy online at http://littlepaperlane.com.au/
I like the texture on that front right basket - just the right touch.
ReplyDeleteThis place looks filled to the brim – must be quite the place this time of year!
Thanks Jen! Yes, nice place to buy gifts for my nieces (and perhaps a few for me!)
DeleteLovely as usual, Chantal. Has anyone commissioned you to create a portrait of their shop or house? If not, they really should.
ReplyDeleteHi Jeannine! Thanks so much for your kindness. I've not really put myself out there for commissions just yet! Hopefully sometime this year I can make it happen : )
