Broadway Plaza, Walnut Creek
The French goods store, Decors de France, which used to be located at Broadway Plaza many years ago, is relocating from its various downtown Walnut Creek locations back to Broadway Plaza where Papyrus used to be. In fact, this is quite close to where they were originally located, right near Nordstrom. Check out their online shop here. This is a really great shop so if you find yourself in the area, definitely check them out!
From their website:
We are a small, family owned business in Walnut Creek, California. We have traveled to France numerous times, and saw the need for authentic french made products in the US, so we decided to open up shop. We sell a large collection of items ranging from french made tablecloths, to organic french made soap.
While strolling in downtown Walnut Creek over the weekend I happened upon a large contingent of people celebrating Joe Biden and Kamala Harris’ win in downtown Walnut Creek at the corner of Civic Park. Lots of honking and cheering as cars drove past.
