Remember those adorable garden tools I wrote about the other day? These graters were in the same store. People have been asking about it and I can’t tell you the name of the store/gallery or the address but I can tell you how to get there if you’re in Avignon.

We’d come from the Palais des Papes, walked past the theater house (with 2 seated sculptures, one is Molière with his face resting on his hand). We then made a right to go to the post office, continued on and made a left. Ok, I just took a quick look at Mappy and i THINK it’s either on rue St. Etienne or rue Folco de Baron Celle. If not, it is very, very close to this area. You can probably ask around once you’re there. Sorry I don’t have a name or address, but this is all by memory from a few months ago. The old part of Avignon is not very big so you really shouldn’t have any difficulties finding it. Good Luck.

OH YEA!!! and if possible please tell them you found them via me at www.whytraveltofrance.com :D

[Also, if you live in Avignon (mg, don't you live in Avignon?) and know this place, can you send me an email or comment with the name and address? Thanks.]

You can find stores called “Plastiques” in Paris, where they have lots of these and other things as well. I know there is one up in Montmartre (between Abbesses and Sacré Coeur) and there’s one on the Rue de Rennes in the 6th. Here’s the info.

Plastiques
103 r Rennes 75006 PARIS
