About Mrs. Caterpillar

Les Tours Eiffel

February 20th, 2008 @ 11:10 am by Mrs. Caterpillar

Update:

A few questions have popped up about Petite Paris, so here’s a mini FAQ:

Q:  All the prices are yen, how do you know how much everything costs?

A:  This is a sort of confusing thing about the site — Petite Paris has a lot of customers from Japan, so the prices are shown in Yen.  But the site is based in Paris, so you can choose a view that shows you the prices in Euros.  As an American customer, you will be charged in Euros.  The current exchange rate is about 1 euro to USD$1.47.

Q:  How long does shipping take?

A:  I ordered 8 towers, and they arrived about 7 days after I ordered them.  You can get shipping on an expedited basis as well, if you request it.

There has been a smattering of interest in the minature Eiffel Towers I used in the valentines I made for the weddingbee swap. So, without further ado — petiteparis.net! My source for all things minature, French, and beautifully packaged.

The towers come in several differerent colors, each with a coordinating attachment. I used the star towers for my valentines, but I do have secret love for the red one with the little heart.

The towers ship from Paris, and most of the website is in Japanese, but Hiromi, the lovely lady who runs the site, is fluent in about 5 languges, including English, and will be able to give you any help you need.

Bonus: They have an extensive collection of Alex Monroe jewelry!

How much are these? They sell for about one euro on the streets in paris. We got engaged in paris and I’d get them if they aren’t too pricey but more than that and it’s a rip off.
