I just posted on my blog photos of some of the beautiful covered passages in Paris.

In Jouffroy passage, there is a shop of great interest named "Pain d'epices" where we can buy teddy bear making material as well as needle felting material.
It was for me an opportunity to get some safety joints and noses as well as some plastic pellets.
We found some artist teddy bears in another shop : apparently the artist is also working as a framer and she exhibits a sample of her bears in her frame shop window.
In the passage Panoramas, Wendy spotted a fun shop named "Tombees du camion" (fell out the truck) where she bought a pair of doll hands and a pair of doll eyes. To visit the website of that shop go there : http://www.tombeesducamion.com/. They have a bigger shop in another part of Paris, but we had no time to visit it, unfortunately. This is a shame as in that other shop there are vintage teddy bear eyes...
Beary hugs,
Sophie.
Sounds like fun, but I don't think a shop called 'Spiced Bread' would automatically scream teddy supplies to me
found that bear shop on one visit to Paris - but never could find it again! Did you go to L'ours du Marais?
Here I go - slipping into another nostalic day dream of Paris........sigh...........
