Tallinn Tallinn - photo story

Last weekend we made a trip to Estonia. Tallinn was bathing in the sun and we made lovely walks around the city. I found sweet earrings from market called Kalamaja päevad. Kalamaja is one neighborhood in Tallinn and I understood that once a year they have this kind of market day and get together. Earrings are made by Maris Loitmets. She is a ceramist. And if you go to Tallinn, one interesting design shop where you can find her earrings and plenty of other Estonian design is called nu nordik. The brooch is made by Kirju and those you can find at least from Tali - Estonian design shop. And of course antique shops took my time and this charming old photo is from one of them. 




Be my guest and take a glance - this is Tallinn.
