Happy Mother's Day!

Mother`s Day: Our Day To Give Back

Mother`s Day Is Our Day To Give Back

“Mother’s Day is all about cherishing the woman who has raised you to become the person you are today.  It is an opportunity to thank her for all the she is and all that she has taught you through her unconditional love.”

All this week, we are offering 15% off one-of-a-kind furniture and home decor with gifts to suit any lucky Mom.  With new items arriving daily, the selection is better than ever. Watch our blog and Facebook page for the daily special and even more savings.

One stop shopping... Make the ultimate statement and pair your gift with flowers.

One of the things we love about sharing our boutique with Sugar Blossoms Floral Design is that every day, no matter the season, no matter the weather, walking into our shop is like entering into a wonderous garden full of heavenly scents and cheery colours.  But nothing compares to the spectacle that is Mother`s Day!

It doesn`t hurt that they`ve sweetened the bouquet by offering an opportunity to win brunch at La Boheme and a $50 flower arrangment!  It`s as easy as pre-booking with the added bonus of no worries about selection (or for some busy folks, forgetting to order those all-important posies)!

I`m reminded of a poem I once heard that began:

My Mother kept a garden,
a garden of the heart,
She planted all the good things
that gave my life it's start.

Apple Box Boutique for gifts she`ll love and Sugar Blossoms Floral Design for beautiful flowers: What a great way to thank your Mom... for everything.

You’ve probably seen distressed furniture pieces with a hand-rubbed lustre and velvety matte finish and thought, “I could do that!”. Well, now is your chance to put that thought into action! This class teaches everything you need to know to create the look at a fraction of the cost. Students will learn the basics of applying one or two colours of Annie Sloan Chalk Paint, different distressing techniques, and the proper application of Annie Sloan Soft Wax.
