Travel Thursdays - 10 craft stores I want to explore in Paris

Y'all know I'm going to have to do a bit of shopping in Paris. With everything I've read and discussed online, I've started making a list of stores I want to visit while I'm in Paris. I may not buy much (depending on how much budget is looking at that moment), but I do want to visit and explore and take photos and just experience these places.

Note - I grabbed these photos from the internet using google images because I obviously haven't visited there yet. ;)

1st Arrondissement
La Droguerie, 9-11 rue du Jour - sewing notions

Des Fils et une Aiguille, 1 rue Chabanais - stitching


2nd Arrondissement
Lavrut, 52 Passage Choiseul - art supplies


3rd Arrondissement
Rougier et Ple, 13-15 boulevard des Filles du Calvaire - art supplies

Weber Meteaux et Plastiques, 9 rue de Poitou and 66 rue de Turenne - metal and plastic art supplies


4th Arrrondissement
Papier Plus, 9 rue Pont Louis Philippe - art supplies

BHV, 52 rue de Rivoli - art supplies



6th Arrondissement
Marie Papier, 26 rue Vavin - paper supply + stamps


11th Arrondissement
Graphigro, 207 boulevard Voltaire - painting & sketching supplies


14th Arrondissement
Temple du Scrap, 13 rue Ernest Cresson - scrapbook supplies
(I can't find a working website right now, so I'm worried they're out of business. Anybody have any info?)

I'm sure I'll come across some other gems of stores while I'm in Paris, but I've already put these places on my must visit and must photograph list. Be on the lookout for photos and commentary once I do visit!
