As promised I will be blogging a ‘Shop of the Day’ every day until the Tower opens. I will endeavour to give you a bit of background to the shop if possible. All these photographs that I will be putting up have been Photoshopped ready to make into ceramic transfers.
Let me know your favourite shops…
Really it didn’t take me ages to decide which will be my first Shop of the Day…
I thought I’d start close to me, in the geographical sense that is, in Wood Street, E17. This shop is amazing, it has been open for a few years. When it first opened, I couldn’t quite believe something so fantastical was in such a normal street. The standard mannequins dressed in Viking clothes are a great juxtaposition.
It’s funny in a way because Viking Invaders actually sailed up the River Lea.
