While on vacation, one of the best days we had was strolling through one of Paris' many flea markets. We actually went to two, but we both fell in love with Le marché aux Puces de Vanves. Sadly we woke up a little late that day, and didn't get to scrounge as much as we usually like to, but we had just enough time to visit every table and pick up a few things while we were at it.
We both have a soft spot for vintage ads. Be it their colour, their puns, or just their kitschy charm, we are happy to display them in our home, especially in our kitchen. So to add to our collection we picked up a few small french food ads. The perfect souvenir from our Sunday stroll in Paris. Light as a feather, and while not quite an oil painting, they are works of art that I will admire and remember the time we went to the marche aux puces!

Little bits of ephemera like this are so nice to have laying about the office. I stockpile vintage magazines and they are a constant source of inspiration.
It's so nice that you'll have these pieces to remember your trip by. ♥
Ahhhh, I have a soft spot for vintage ads too. These ones are so great!
