Today, I’ll bring you back to visit my old stomping ground in Toronto. While out walking on a gloomy spring day, I stumbled on a very cute little shop that brings French country to us city slickers. The shop is called Chatelet.
Though I had hoped to, I didn’t have the opportunity to visit the store to see the other beautiful items it surely offered, however, I was very taken with the items displayed outside and would recommend that you visit this little shop on your next visit to Toronto.

Love everything at the shop…want it all now 🙂 Very French style for Toronto. Great pics!
Thanks! I wonder if they’d ship their stuff? 😉
That’s so Paris! It even makes me want to go back there.
Nice 🙂 It makes me want to go there for the first time.
You definitely should go, Shane! Would be nice to see Paris through your lenses!
I will someday. And I really must return to Italy. It’s been far too long.
Those birdies! I could just snatch up a handful and find homes for them everywhere in my trees. Love the striped awning too. Really cute.
Carrie, I loved the colours of everything I saw at that little shop. I could have also found places around my house for many of those little things.
This reminds me of some shops in New Orleans..Love your lighting and tone in this photo!!
Thanks Lynne, I guess it would since there’s a solid French community down there. My mom lived in Lafayette for a few years.
Love shops like these. Treasure troves of, well, treasures. Enjoyed the shopping trip – and didn’t even spend a cent 😉 Seriously, wonderful photos, Shane! And Paris and Italy? Most definitely!
Thanks again! It really was a cute little place and I wish I had the chance to go into it, but since there’s such a strong French culture here in Ottawa, I’m sure I’ll stumble on another store like this one soon.
