SilverwoodBloom Madrid

Lifestyle shopping in Madrid

""SilverwoodBloom" in Madrid sells an intriguing assortment of niche products and objects for beautifying your home. I simply want them all!"

SilverwoodBloom has introduced Madrid to the concept of lifestyle shopping, selling a luxurious assortment of niche products to beautify your home. They carry exclusive jams, specialty teas and coffee, fancy ceramics,  lamps, puzzles, socks and games. What do all these things have in common? For me, the answer would be I want them all!

If you are familiar with my usual haunts, you might think that all my favourite spots are cheap or free! The truth is though, although I love a bargain, I love pretty things too! If I had to choose one luxury I couldn’t live without, gorgeous scent would be my choice - it always lifts my spirits. SilverwoodBloom has traditional high-quality Portuguese soaps, Italian fragrances and a host of candles to help you and your house smell wonderful.

Alan, the British owner, is really friendly and helpful. Stylish socks for Father’s Day? Look no further. Pens and fancy cards and notebooks for the writer in your life? You’ll find them here. Whatever you pick, even if it’s a gift for yourself, it will be exquisitely wrapped for you and tied with their signature orange ribbon. Come on, treat yourself - you deserve it!

Caramelos Paco

Sweets for Madrid

"Caramelos Paco" in Madrid sells sweets - its window display leaves no doubt about that. I love old shops like this, the opposites of one-stop shopping!
