Christmas ornaments in Paris

If you are in Paris before Christmas, there is a wonderful little shop in Montmartre that sells lovely little angels and other beautiful Christmas ornaments. I think someone asked about this shop last year, but I could not find the name or the address. Well, after unwrapping some of my beautiful angels to put on my Christmas tree last night, I found the shop card - La Boutique des Anges, 2, rue Yvone Le Tac, 75018 Paris, Tel: 01 42 57 74 38

Thanks! The Maison d'l'Alsace is hosting a little Christmas market and ornaments also are sold there.

Hi Barb

Is this shop open all year or is it only open around the holidays? I have been to Paris twice but never at the holidays.

Thank you for the information. We'll be there in a couple of weeks. Our first Christmas away from home. This will certainly start a new collection of ornaments.

I was there the end of Sept. early October when I discovered this little shop, so I think it's probably open year round.

Barb & all - Have visited the shop twice since seeing it featured in a travelogue on Paris some years ago. The lady who runs it is very sweet and interested in all people who love anything to do with angels!
I purchased an angel music CD. Beautiffully wrapped and enclosed was a little card that read something like this:
"If you discover you have wings growing - do not attempt to stop them in any way."

That's great that the shop is still there. Yes, the owner was very lovely and wrapped my angels beautifully.
