Three years ago when I went to London, I was there in November so I got to experience a lot of festive lighting in the streets and inside the major stores that were decorated for the holidays. Last year at this time I featured a post about holiday shopping at Harrods. This year I'm featuring photos from one of my favorite places to shop in London, Fortnum and Mason.
The Fortnum and Mason store is a perfect setting for a lot of festive decorations. The central, spiral staircase is always decorated with some new and colorful feature. And that red carpeting throughout the store just seems to say "Merry Christmas".
I saw quite a few people ordering up these fun baskets filled with all the special treats that are so popular at this store. Everything from chocolates, to teas, to jams and biscuits. You could even order one filled with cheese and pate if you wanted. And, Fortnum and Mason will deliver it right to your door. Well, if you live in London they will.
Merry Christmas from Sharon's Sojourns.
