Beside the items, the atmosphere of the shop was wonderful too.

All items where very nice showed, with a Turkish style but still different then usual.

Of course we couldn't resist to walk out this shop without buying something, mum got her self a beautiful felt glass case and needle felted doll. And I got a yummy bag.

After that we went to Eminönü the place to buy jewelry material. You first go through the Grand Bazaar, and after that you come to a huge mess of tiny streets and tons of shops.

We also needed some packaging and found a perfect shop for that, shopping takes alot of time here, people get easily distracted by others but eventually after some patience you get what you want.

Shopping doesn't go without tea and a fight about prices...

We also went to a huge supply shop with 4 floors but forgot to take pictures, we bought a few kilometers of chain and other things, spending money makes you tired and the day was gone already, so we went to a restaurant to eat something and then back to the hotel to rest from all the shopping, to continue tomorrow :)
