Behind the counter are Lauriane and Lucie, formerly at the helm ofOn the other fish, a little nugget in the 19th arrondissement, located on rue Sadi Lecointe. And with good reason: the store - and therefore, the concept - moved during the summer of 2024, to brand-new premises on rue de la Folie Méricourt, and a new recruit to the team, with Justine.
This time around, Les Imprimeuses offer a concept - as the name suggests - based around stationery andtextile printing. " The idea is that you come and create something with us, or that you leave with a kit to create", explains Lucie. So, in the store, you'll find not only kits, but also in-house creations, including posters and pins inspired by Parisian neighborhoods and symbols, designed by Lauriane and Lucie themselves.
Whether as a gift or for yourself, Les Imprimeuses is one of those neighborhood shops where you're greeted with a big smile and could easily drop in every day, if only to have the oracle told at their special machine (but, suspense, we'll let you go there - with a €2 coin in your pocket - to discover this nugget for yourself).
For a gift idea or, even better, to offer a real experience to loved ones (including children), Les Imprimeuses offers you the chance to take part in a workshop to design what you'd like printed on organic cotton t-shirts, sweatshirts, bibs, tote bags and other bags, or to create your own Invader sweater, inspired by the famous graffiti of the French street artist, who can be found hunting and traipsing all over the capital. Otherwise, for any textile personalization project, don't hesitate to visit the boutique: it takes just 5 minutes, and prices are more than affordable (€10 for textile printing per side, excluding sleeves, €5 extra if the graphic designers come in to redesign the project).
It's a beautiful address that gives local commerce its full meaning: the rue de la Folie-Méricourt is lucky to count Les Imprimeuses among its merchants, and we can only encourage you to visit it!
