My local shops in December

I love the flair, creativity, colour and occasional sense of whimsey the local shop keepers have employed in putting together their December shop windows.

One of the best bookshops around Pages and Pages features a favourite - 
"Chasing a Dream" by Carla Coulson


Hydrangeas, poinsettias and Christmas wreaths tumble onto the street at The Floral Craftsman 

 

And The Cheese Man has a particularly interesting view on the month of December!

  3. Gosh I love your photos of the gorgeous flowers! Are the displays in the window (the ones with the cheeses) - are they all able to be eaten? If so that is so amazing!
    Came here via Lisa from Renovating Italy!

    Cheers

  4. Hi Lisa - thank you for dropping by and for your comments. The window displays in the cheese shop are not edible and I believe made by a local artist. They are amazing. Enjoy your week. Francesca
