Joyeuses Pâques!
Well here we are, my little hop-alongs, my sweet peep chickadees, my little briar rabbits-
Happy Happy Easter!
Now I know that lent has been vicious for all of us- I personally gave up all kinds of things!…Obviously not the good ‘ole vino- because I can’t quite recall what they were- but it was trying! Trying, I tell you! I’m exhausted just thinking about it!
Well, so back to race-car chocolate bunnies, hats wider than a fun girl’s bottom and all things that make us smile every spring.
Including….An Easter Egg hunt!
Yep, you heard us- come on down on Sunday and find delicious treats, prizes and hidden discounts!
Y.E.S.
Who needs a fabulously refinished turquoise Bombay chest with gold hardware? Uh…yes-it’s you.
Dull Office? Not anymore!
Now if there is one thing that we all know about spring in Atlanta, mes pâques lapins, it’s that it is the start of patio living. So don’t be the sad little chick last at the party- let’s get to fluffing right away!
These little chickens won’t lay any eggs, but that makes for awkward centerpieces anyway.
Art! Art! Art!
From our newest gallery artisan-
Soul Thick
Hostess gift anyone?
Lampe Berger is always perfect.
So don your bonnets (we got ‘em), slip on some gloves (we got ‘em too) and join us this weekend in our Easter Egg Hunt!
And don’t forget..

Next Sunday, April 15th!
7 p.m.-10 p.m.

Absolutely no cover!
Did I say open bar, my lovers? Why, yes, I did!
Did someone mention nibbles and up to 20% off sales? Um, yes, you heard correctly.
Valet? Burlesque Dancers? Arealist? Jugglers? Piano Players? Banjo? Adult puppet show? Laughter? Pranks? A raffle for pennies for the very things that you have been drooling over for a year?
But of course, mon sucre pois.

The Rare. The Amazing. The Odd and Thrilling.
Welcome, to your new
Paris on Ponce and PoP Marché!
It’s been a five ring circus (in an endearing clown car sort of way) around here for a good year now and finally, with a grand sweep of our arms, a tip of the hat, and the crack of the whip we would like to lift our megaphone and announce a loud:
“TA DA!”
With 22 completely distinctly different shops within the PoP Marché we have now reached our year long goal, and it is time to PARTY! PARTY! PARTY!
So mark your calenders, mes petits singes for
FRIDAY, MARCH 30th. from 6-9 p.m.
We will have cocktails, food, music, fun and up to 20% off everything in all boutiques! Eeeek!
Check out these amazing vintage dentistry cabinets. Absolutely ideal for jewelry or tool organization. Tres chic!
One more thing the monkeys around here are stirring up- AUCTION!
For those who came and got absolute steals, and those of you that missed our last one, this is it. Post it, mark it, tattoo it, e-mail it to yourself because you do not want to miss out.
Sunday, April 15. 7-10 p.m.
Well, it’s time for Baudelaire the Pug’s fire hoop training session, so we must fly, but please stop by soon and see all of our new acts.
Paris on Ponce: Your bohemian playground.
Hello again, my darlings! Well, with spring just right around the corner we have been busy, busy bees at our little Paris on Ponce. In fact, we got to spinning and twirling so fast- we just blew a hole strait through the front shop wall! Ka-Blammo! Fun with sledgehammers!
So now there is a direct pass strait to our sexy new vendors.
Between the vintage taxidermy, the bohemian Parisian flea market finds, the live edge tables, and the oodles of sparkling vintage glassware- I just don’t know which direction to run to first!
Thank goodness we always have cider and cookies…for sustenance, darling, sustenance.
Vintage cameras? Yep- we got ‘em. Authentogram your instagrams.
Baudelaire. The cutest pug on the planet. Ever.
Rough lux your living room for pennies. Pennies I tell you!
Like a magpie we flock to mercury glass chandeliers.
They say “morroccan”, they say “bling”, they say “pretty people live here”!
Need a velvet couch with piles of vintage route sign pillows from London? I know where one lives…
Come and check out the vintage foundlings in the “Bricks and Mortar” boutique, darlings- these kids have the eye for cool on the cheap.
So much new stuff!
You need a pop of color in your life. It’s almost spring, mon petit sauterelles- get to hoppin’!
So much to see! With 23 new boutiques, we have treasures bursting from every corner!
Exclusive chair designs from Leslie Baugues. Each one unique, handcrafted, and enchanting.
You deserve it, after all.

Heureux Saint-Valentin!
Oh, my lovers, my darlings, my secret crushes- it is that time again, to indulge and over-indulge in kisses, long gazes and and/or perhaps, a bottle of bubbly all to oneself. Whether you are buying something sweet for a special someone (Baudelaire the pug looooves cupcakes, BTW…), or treating yourself, please hop on down this windy weekend to see us… We promise to be full of wide-eyed enthusiasm and wistful glances.
Sweet vintage somethings
for someone deserving.
And the Lampe Berger order is in- but already going fast! Peruse our sexy new diffusers from Paris, and if you find just the right one for your sweetie, we will throw in a small bottle of “Wintertime in Russia”, the new signature fragrance.
Oooo La La!
Can you think of a dreamier date night than to arrive home to your own kitchen nook ice cream parlor? (Le sigh…) Very creative and thoughtful, and guaranteed to land you a load full of sprinkles.
Giving living things says:
“I trust you enough not to kill this.”
(Secret bonus- succulents are really hard to kill.)

Il est charmant !
Vanities don’t make you vain- they keep you from sharing a bathroom- très intelligent!
Plateau thé pour deux.
Make your libations stylish…
Who has a stylish and seductive home? Uh- this guy does. Come and be the better man!
Hey- so, it’s uh…about that time, honey.
And if the liquor and chocolates don’t make it- try books, ’cause learning is sexy.
Even the carved birds around here are checking each other out…
In Other News…
Paris on Ponce is thrilled to participate in the Atlanta debut of Leftover Luxuries, the nation’s leading popup consignment shop. Coming to Atlanta’s Miami Circle February 24 through March 4, Leftover Luxuries is a great way to let go of things you no longer want, bridging the gap between auction and tag sales. Curated by our own John Gibson, Leftover Luxuries will pop up for ten days, in a 6,000 square foot showroom stocked with furniture, rugs, lighting, antiques, barely worn designer wear, shoes and handbags. This is not your typical consignment shop, but a fast-paced, high energy, high quality shopping experience. Leftover Luxuries curates and then accepts consignments of your no longer needed items, and provides all services after drop off. There is no risk, and the return to you, the consignor, is a better-than-industry-standard of 60%. Check out the website and then take a look around your attic, closet or storage space for the luxuries you no longer want. Visit the website at
www.leftoverluxuries.com
or look on facebook for Leftover Luxuries, Atlanta for pictures of past sales, and all the details of how to participate. Consignments are accepted right up to the sale date of February 24, and best of all… consignors get first dibs at the preview sale! We’ll see you there!
Thanks for the looks, my funny valentines- why doncha’, you know, come by and see me sometime.
I’ve got a special something…just…for…you.
Muah!
