NEW YORK SNAPS - abc home

today im posting some snapshots from my new york trip to surtex a couple of weeks ago. my first set of pictures are from ABC carpet & home located at 888 broadway, in the flatiron area. ABC is famous for its eclectic selection of merchandise laid out in gorgeous settings, and its interesting window displays. well worth a visit on any trend finding trip. prices are sky high but the goods are unique and always interesting. i especially enjoyed the childrens dept (and for info there is a conran shop down in the basement).
a selection of snaps featuring the hand painted designs in ABC's window display at the time of my visit.
items from the stationery dept, low lighting meant the shots are a little blurred.
and finally a selection of home furnishings, etc.

    I also visited ABC while in NYC, but you spotted lots more than I did. Found it totally overwhelming, but completely amazing too.

    Very Nice! I visit just about every time I go to NYC. I always get mean looks from people when I take pix in there though!

  7. of all the places i go to take my sneaky snaps i have to admit abc home is the hardest.
    i saw lots more great things but unfortunately over observant staff made it impossible to shoot them.
