Piet Moodshop is the kind of shop you can’t leave without buying anything (or maybe without regretting that one thing you didn’t buy). It all starts when you enter the shop, the interior makes me think of the old pharmacies with the really high wooden racks and the best thing about this: it’s filled to the ceiling with all kinds of cool stuff you can buy! It just looks perfect the way it is presented to you.
Piet Moodshop is great to find a present for your loved ones, and the website makes it even easier. You can select who it is you’re looking for a gift for, you can even select an age range, a budget and the style of the person you are buying a gift for.
I would describe it as the kind of shop where you’ll discover things you never knew you needed. I highly recommend you come and take a look, even if your trip to Ghent emptied your wallet, just go and take a look!
