The ever-inspiring Yvonne, from Yvestown, recently announced that she is now carrying a wonderful selection of the popular, but hard-to-find, Jeu de Paume interior design books in her lovely little shop. 

Paumes

Yvestown blog readers are raving about the lower than normal prices, so I thought I'd pass along the tip to S.HOPtalk readers. I've had a few of these little gems on my wish list since discovering them via this flickr pool. For those of you who aren't familiar with these books, the eye candy is plentiful–featuring real people and their inspiring interiors. With all of the text in Japanese, you'll need to let your imagination fill in the blanks. That's part of the charm, right?

Available books include, Petit apartements a' Paris, Paris Brocante, London Kitchens, Ateliers de Filles { as well as several others }...sounds like delightful way to spend a Saturday afternoon. Visit the Yvestown shop for more information.

    Hi Julia:

    Yes...Yvestown is one of my faves as well. The books are great. You can see some sample pages by typing in Jeu de Paume in the search field on flickr...lots of people have taken shots of their own books to share with others.
