pedlars’ store front | holiday 2014

One of my favorite shops at the moment has to be Pedlars, which is based in North Wales but has a retail shop in Notting Hill. (128 Talbot Road, a stone’s throw from Portobello Road.) Long known for its design-lover’s assemblage of clever-yet-quirky British homewares and accessories like Hovis tins and vintage bus blinds, the shop has recently been freshened up to include a smart cafe area at the back, and new products include some of my very favorite lines from the US, including Best Made Company and Scout’s Honor Paper. All I know is that it’s been an Instagram free-for-all every time I’ve stopped in over the past few months.

The shop’s wood paneling is accented with cheery, bright colors + the staff always make me (the ever-gushing American) feel welcome. Add Pedlars to your London must-see list: of course, between visits, there’s always the online shop.
