Happy Autumn!

We hope you’re enjoying this beautiful season! We love the crisp cool air this time of year; it’s so refreshing. As the temperatures start to drop, the hens start to crave some cozy comforts- like hot apple cider, candles, warm blankets, and really good books (or addictively bad T.V.)! How do you cozy up your life for the colder months?

If you’re looking to add a little bit more cozy to your nest we have a few suggestions!

Do you love the warm flickering glow of a burning candle, but hate the smoke, fire hazard, waxy mess? These Reallite Candles are battery operated, but they look just like the real deal. Wonderful if you have kids, or pets! The best thing is that you can place them anywhere, for any length of time without worrying. Available in red, green, and ivory and in various sizes.

Sari Throws are the perfect thing to cuddle up in on a chilli day. Each hand-stitched  throw is one-of-a-kind and made from vintage Indian saris.  The vintage cotton is so soft, and the stunning colours and patterns will add instant character to any space!

There’s a reason we’ve been carrying Pheylonian 100% pure cappings beeswax candles for years! These Canadian made candles smell wonderful, burn clean, and are long-lasting. When lit, they produce a beautiful golden glow, and clean the air as they burn. They are great for helping reduce dust, pollen, and toxins in your home.

Sometimes we wish we could spend the colder months in hibernation. Alas, hens do not hibernate! We do enjoy a great night’s sleep and we think that Dream Designs linens are the best! These natural, chemical-free linens are hand-made in B.C. and are so cozy and durable. We carry 100% cotton and hemp/ramie linens as well as their silk-filled duvets. So lovely… is it nap time yet??

Stay cozy and warm friends! We hope to see you soon at the shop!

With the weather how it is today, we thought we’d bring the shop to you through the magic of the internet! It’s like window shopping, but in the comfort of your own home. Enjoy!

With spring decor it’s fun to add some colour and a touch of playfulness! We think the  boiled wool bunnies and eggs are so cute. The multicoloured hobnail lanterns are bright and cheery! We also have some sweet tea lights that look like spring flowers- they’re great for a centrepiece.

We freshened up the entrance of the shop with lots of green! We have  a selection of inspirational design books and  green blown glass vases. We mounted some of our vintage crates on the wall to create unique shadow boxes.

We had fun creating this pretty vignette on the left. We like mixing old and new and different design styles to keep things interesting. Our silver standing birds are sweet and add a touch of sparkle.

We have a great selection of antique side tables in the shop right now, and some interesting nautical finds.

We have a couple of these beautiful large lanterns in the shop that would work for indoors or out. We’re also carrying Reallite candles- they’re battery operated! On the right, a vintage loveseat that we had reupholstered with a stunning ikat fabric from Kravet.

Here’s a peek at some of our sea treasures and bath products. We love Tokyo Milk- a line of bath products from the US  that’s made from crushed and distilled essences. The packing is beautiful, and the products smell amazing!

We get so excited when the sari throws arrive to the shop. Our latest shipment was filled with bright spring colours and lovely floral patterns. These cotton throws are hand stitched in India from vintage saris. They add instant character and colour to the end of a bed, or on a sofa or armchair.

We hope you enjoyed your peek at our new spring inspirations! Be sure to come in soon and take a look for yourself!
