Heather of Skinny LaMinx jetted off from Africa to London yesterday. The good news for me is that I'll be there too in early July and I am planning how I will fill my precious few days there. Some places I want to revisit, and others I plan to visit for the first time: 
The delightful Labour and Wait in East London is definitely on my list.

The delightful Labour and Wait in East London is definitely on my list.The shop celebrates the simple honest things in life and sources hardware, clothing and other products from around the world, many of them still made in the traditional way. If I didn't have a 20kg restriction on my luggage - these are some of the things I would take home:

WOW this shop looks lovely. I wish I could visit it with you!
Aghhh - I also want to go! ; ) This shop looks amazing!
I'm sure you are going to have fun.
Re the knots - maybe you could take your crocheting to another level?
Oh, what a beautiful shop. I want at least ten of the things but the twine holder and colander especially. I adore those simple well made things which outlast fashion. I hope you visit!
Great store, wonderfully authentic looking products. A friend of mine has one of their bottle openers mounted on their kitchen wall. So useful for parties - everyone knows where to find the opener! Enjoy it.
Wow, I wish they were there when i was
I marked this shop on my list too! (We'll be in London in July.) I'll need to get the wooden doorstop wedges...and probably swoon over much much more.
Have fun there!
