M and La Boutique des Anges

This is a postcard i bought two years ago when i was in Paris.
Isn't it gorgious.
 I bought it in this little shop, full of angels.
We were looking for a dollshouse shop in Montmartre-Paris and found this amazing shop there.
 This miniature angel-shop was also in ther, but this one was not for sale.

Miniature marketstalls filled with angels.

Oooh how i loved this shop, i wanted to take more pictures but i was not allowed.
There was so much to see, every inch was filled with some kind of angel.
