Today I bring you not just one, but twenty or more windows from the shop on the ground floor of Salts Mill in Saltaire. Its magnificent bookshop is upstairs, but here, as you come in, you can buy posters and cards, stationery and supplies, art materials – all temptingly laid out for browsers who wander around this space, decorated with vast ceramic pieces from Leeds-based Burmantofts pottery, elegant vases of fresh lilies. The window in the featured photo is in the entrance hall to the Mill, and hints at the treasures to be found within.
For Monday Windows, hosted this week by Brian of Bushboy’s World.

Looks like an interesting place. I’d have to pass on the bookshop though.

Er. Why? Would you spend too much? You might end up with a huge pile of Must-Haves, realise you can’t have them all, and ditch the lot!

Yes, very tempting but have Christmas presents sorted for the first time ever. Maybe sales in Jan and that bookshop but still so many to read. I remember a mill and an art gallery – prob over 30 years ago now.

Though it has changed in 30 years (yep, we too went in those days), in essnce it’s still the same wonderful place – with that distinctive old-oiled-machinery smell.
