Shop Shoots - Ici et La
25 Jan 2010
Last Saturday I visited ici et la at 7 Nickson Street Surry Hills. A few years ago one of my girlfriends bought some colourful deckchairs from ici et la. When I was looking for fabric to recover a bedroom chair ici et la was the first place I thought of. They've since moved from their original shop on Bourke Street to the Nickson Street premises.
The shop is beloved of Sydney stylists as it's filled with all things French, old and lovely and of course the deck chairs still feature prominently.
I love the old French boards and would love one for my place but where to put it?
The dog is obviously the most important member of staff as his face features on the price tags. He spent most of the time I was there happily snoozing on his own chair.
The place is a treasure trove of interesting light fittings, vintage linens, old signs and toys and vintage Tolix chairs.
I hope you enjoyed my little visit to ici et la. Don't forget the Chilewich Giveaway competition is still running so don't forget to leave a comment.
Happy Australia Day for tomorrow,
Jillian
