Sepia Monks’ Corner
The store, in Santa Fe, caught my eye, fed my whimsical nature, and made me a little curious. Subsequent examination reveals that The Monks’ Corner, a marketplace, serves several New Mexico monasteries, an abbey, and possibly a nunnery or two.
After my trip to the monastery, recounted elsewhere, the downtown sign tickled me again. Perfect for the sepia theme, perfect imagery, and, I might add, a cool place to shop.
Like most retail experiences, though, one has to be a little careful, as there is some merchandise that doesn’t appear to be 100% crafted by spiritual labors. Doesn’t make it any less of an uplifting place to visit, browse, shop, and buy.
Beautiful picture!
I like it, it’s whimsical and cute!
Love that photo and the decoration too. Happy Wednesday!

Neat!
I tried to leave a comment at your other blog but couldn’t figure out how to do it.
The sign is rather whimsical and sweet. Nice sepia.
The monk is a work, but the dove of peace seems to have rubbed off on him. A quiet laborer is relaxed and looking a bit divine too!

I really do recommend it – the right amount of reverence and ribald.
Oh, I do like that charming and whimsical little monk. What a great place this would be to explore.
