Effortlessly suave, like an alley cat, I embark on an exploration of the remnants of a city rich with merchant history. Guided by a faint melody echoing through lanes steeped in nostalgia, I discover vintage stores seemingly frozen in time. These quaint corner shops remain untouched and familiar to all in the neighborhood—a living tableau of historical trade. Standing outside on the sidewalk, I am captivated by their windows: sometimes quaint, often opulent, always classy. It's akin to pausing at an old black and white postcard where clerks in their finery stand proudly before their store.
Finally, I enter. The door chimes a welcoming tinkle... Inside, a cozy warmth envelops me, a cocktail of nostalgia stirred by the scents of the past. Colors burst forth, crafting a tapestry as vivid and detailed as a storybook just opened. Generations whisper through the creaking wood floors, and the air is fragrant with the scent of wax. Items line the shelves - vibrant jars, enigmatic boxes, and assorted merchandise, each with its tale to tell. The shopkeeper, a mischievous curator of his domain, showcases the endless marvels of his boutique with a twinkle in his eye. Here, the authentic experience awaits.
As a child, playing shop was my delight. Today, I indulge in the adult version, showcasing bags adorned with the visages of stores past, each a celebration of this nostalgic craft.
Walking, cycling, taking the bus, or soaring above, stealthily or amidst the elements, in the brilliance of daylight or the secrecy of night, through changing seasons and moods, Paris continually reveals itself in new ways. Like a collector of snapshots, I traverse this open-air museum, seeking traces of time, capturing fragments of daily life. Everywhere, relics of the past unveil themselves, forgotten inscriptions like 'Water and gas on every floor' marking bygone epochs yet persisting in the modern landscape. On this urban stage, where Haussmannian facades meet everyday figures, each character plays their role. Silent witnesses, the gargoyles on buildings seem to watch over Paris, a frozen smile facing the curious passers-by. Higher up, brick chimneys stand like sentinels, sometimes topped with unusual hats or adorned with modern antennas, weaving a link between past and present. I wander, I capture, I create using these snippets of life, drawing invisible connections, setting new rules at every turn. My creations transcend these walks, whether real or imagined, sketching a visual prose of an enigmatic Paris. Each piece tells a story, open to personal interpretation by its viewer...
I organized Paris like one might arrange a box of paints.
Squares of reds—bistro chairs, a metro sign, the Moulin Rouge, a fire access panel, brick chimneys, a carriage gate, a strawberry punnet...
A range of greens—hidden gardens, well-maintained parks from the Tuileries to Montsouris, a Morris column, the boxes of booksellers, an old bandstand, benches here and there—look, the light is green...
Palette of blues—street plaques, a scooter, mosaic tiles, an optician's glasses, a bus lane, building numbers, water and gas on every floor, and even a sailboat in a basin...
Shades of gray—cobblestones by the thousand, the famous gray weather, pigeons everywhere, shadows on the asphalt, the rain, wrought iron railings, the Eiffel Tower, black and white photographs, nostalgia...
Touches of yellows—mailboxes, gildings, the M of the metro, metropolitan, a bike, the dome of the Invalides, another bike, the equestrian statue of Joan of Arc, clocks at all hours, at every street corner...
Each color in this collection is a window onto the soul of Paris. Not a stroke of the brush, but a click and clack of life, the poetry of this city of love!
As a modern-day flâneuse, I hunted for characters scattered throughout the urban tumult, taming their essence to craft a unique Urban Alphabet. Through alleys and grand boulevards, I collected words: words as soft as whispers, as loud as the clack of heels on cobblestones, as delightful as pastries from a neighborhood bakery, words both feminine and masculine, echoing the diversity of Paris. Like a street librarian, I classified them, creating a vibrant and colorful town abecedary.
A for Amour (Love), Acrobat, Audacious, Astrolabe, Ainsi (Thus): terms that dance between love and adventure, evoking the emotional acrobatics of lovers under street lamps.
B for Bonhomme (Good Guy), Bouillon (Broth), Binocle (Spectacles), Blablabla: bursts of everyday life, conversations caught on the fly in cafes, where each pair of spectacles seems to scrutinize a world in miniature.
C for Cependant (However), Comédie (Comedy), Crocodile, Comète (Comet), Coquelicot (Poppy): a cinema of words, where each syllable paints a vivid tableau of the city's hues, life scenes intertwined like an open-air theater play, uncovering Paris gift ideas...
With each letter, a universe unfolds, turning the urban into a text to decipher, a map to explore. Paris becomes an open book where every passer-by, every street corner, contributes to the writing of an endless story
A sepia snapshot capturing the soul of Paris, a poem whispered down alleyways, a scarlet stamp sealing the destiny of a memory—thus, in the envelope of time, a missive is prepared for journeying. In an era where the postcard seems forgotten, let us revisit its former splendor. I envisioned this collection as one might compose an old-fashioned postcard; each piece is a vignette, a window open onto the pulsating heart of Paris's landmarks.
Stroll along the banks of the Seine, be enchanted by the stories engraved in the cobblestones. This series of postcards is an invitation to rediscover Paris, through the lens of its history and legends.

Dive into this range, where each card promises a journey, a ticket to a poetic escape at the heart of the French capital.
I have captured moments of Paris, stolen moments, suspended in time. A ray of sun playing hide and seek with the clouds, as I sit at a café terrace, watching the passing crowd. Each silhouette is a story floating in the air, each laugh a fragment of the urban symphony.
A crumb of bread on the pavement, a pigeon eyeing this treasure, and I, a witness to this small daily drama. A bicycle clashing against a lamppost, the clink of a spoon on a cup, the strong scent of coffee mingling with the gentle smell of the morning.
This is Paris, in its simple gestures, in the hurried sweep of a waiter, in the smile exchanged through a window. I drink it all in; I note it, I breathe it. Each moment is a Parisian cliché, a living postcard, a verse in the long poetry of this town.
I live these moments of well-being in Paris, I relish them, I collect them. In my memory, Paris wraps itself in tenderness, light, sounds, remaining there, immortal, wonderfully ordinary and exceptionally unique.
On a dazzling sunny morning, emblematic of my Parisian spirit, I relish a vibrant stroll through the local market, my camera ready at my side. I weave through the bustling crowd and trolley gridlocks, surrounded by lively calls of “Elle est belle ma salade!” and “3 for 2 euros!” filling the air. Look, Madame Champignon is showcasing oyster mushrooms today! The fishmonger’s booth, with its distinctive blue display, always attracts a lively queue. “Bonjour ma petite dame, what can I tempt you with today? Perhaps some special peas, or fresh jardinière potatoes?” The aroma of basil fills the air, a fragrant promise of culinary delights.
As I survey the colorful array of produce waiting patiently for their turn to be savored, I decide today’s focus will be vegetables: leeks, radishes, carrots, turnips, onions, and beetroots, all ready for their close-up. “Say Cheese!” Each one will find its way into a bespoke carrier, becoming the latest stars of the market. These shopping bags, emblazoned with images of our favorite veggies, are not only practical but also stylishly capture the essence of market chic. Maron Bouillie’s designs transform ordinary shopping trolleys into whimsical caravans of joy, where the flower vendor and the fruit-and-vegetable merchant playfully compete, their stalls mirroring each other in vibrant prints.
