Proudly Pinoy
Way back in June of 2008, I posted a photo of one of my favorite mall stores which specializes in Philippine handicrafts. Happily, I discovered a similar shop, albeit smaller and therefore with fewer choices, very near our house. The Turista Shop sells small handcrafted wooden furniture and home accessories, woven baskets and mats, handmade paper, jewelry, soap and candles, and bottled delicacies and non-grape wines from all over the country. I love going there every now and then just to see what's new.

The clock looks cute.I think those beautiful candles are scented ones. Those will be nice pasalubongs. Thanks for the link.
I like the colors and the warm light.
Great collection. Ideal place for gifts :)
We wife and I like stores like that, too. It's dangerous for our wallet to go together!
Assume one could spend hours there.
A wonderful Wednesday for you all.
Your shot is beautiful as always :)

Looks like an interesting shop and in your own neighborhood too!
This looks like a neat shop. Sometimes smaller stores are much more interesting than larger ones. I like your collage.
hi hilda! had to zoom in to take a better look... are those sardines on the left side? if they are, always a great pasalubong. ^-^
These shops are so much fun. Our downtown area has some interesting shops. It's fun to park the car and just walk from shop to shop.
Looks beautiful. It is similar to FabIndia, which is one of my favourites in Delhi.

Link Thank you so much for the support and encouragement you have shown over the past year and a half. Hope to get your support for many days to come
Looks like fun. Funny name for the shop.
I like this kind of shop and this more than many other I have seen. I would be curious to check every single item there. The raw wood furniture is great!
Cool! I liked the rolled colors on the top-right corner!!

«Louis» likes to find shops like this that help local producers and artisans showcase their goods.
I liked a lot that clock!
Cool that you have this opportunity!

I could spend all day in a store like that!
This is the type of shop I could have spent time and money! ;-)
Looks like a wonderful place to shop - even for non-tourists!
Thanks for the comments! I would love to see a picture of the Manila temple! This store looks like so much fun. I hope to take a trip to the Philippines someday!
I like this kind of shop!
I'm like JM! Don't let me loose in there!

Look again. It's not a collage—those are the shelves! :D
