A Splash of Colour for January

 Razzberry Bazaar is the most amazing shop in Tynemouth near Newcastle. I've been there a few times and it's just hard to describe the riot of colour that engulfs you as you step over the raspberry threshold ...
 Every inch of every corner of every room is crammed full of pretty things in every colour of the rainbow.
everything is arranged in colour themes ... and the colours just flow across the rooms
 The brightest of all the merchandise is at the back of the shop where the reds, oranges and yellows live ....
I took these photographs in November and saved them especially for the darkest dreariest days of January. Just thinking back to our visit there just makes me smile!

    It certainly would be difficult to choose a favorite thing in that bright shop. I liked the double decker bus.

    I bet they have lots of fun setting up the displays. Reckon you could spend ages looking around there.

    It looks wonderful, so colourful, and they sell lots of pretty things. That can't help but cheery you up on a dreary day.
