Saw this fab tailoring and alteration store whilst on a business trip to Jersey the other week.
They have done a beautiful job of their shop front and window decal.
Its so nice to see independent stores that looked loved.
Snapshots from East Dulwich Christmas 2012
Its great to see our local high street stores pulling out the stops for Christmas.
There was definitely a trend for hand painted window art this Christmas in East Dulwich.
I really liked that fact that so many stores had their windows hand painted it was a great theme for the high street and very cost effective. And even those stores not celebrating still did a painted scheme.

Diptyque – Marlebone High St – London
Todays Marylebone High St store is Diptyque. Why? Because I love the simple yet powerful use of the yellow transparent film on the glass; which gives them a really strong stand out and attraction factor. Yet on closer inspection it’s not simple at all as they have layered in a LED outline of a perfume bottle and hands holding a real bottle. I like the way the use of this grabs your attention and focuses your eye on the tiny product. Very clever.
Privacy decal/window sticker
I really like the way this company have used this decal or window sticker as some people know them.
It not only gives privacy for the office but advertises their twitter account.
Decal Stripes
Stripes of all shapes and sizes continue to be used in windows everywhere.
Decal stripes have been used on these windows with wording to advertise this printers business.
A few ideas from Prague
Here are a couple of neat ideas I saw in a store in Prague city centre.
The first is using pebbles as pricing tickets, sounds odd but it worked and looked good.
The second idea is creating a high level collage display with products and using decal outlines to fill in the gaps between the different real products. Simple and neat and very effective.
