 FAVOURITE designs from So Young Inc. so far.  I thought nothing could beet (pun alert) the artichoke but the new red beets and the black sheep in the larger cooler size are pretty damn awesome.  There are also new prints on the smaller lunch coolers, including a dinosaur and a deer as well as new lunchboxes (below)!

imm cupsSpring Imm Living is here! They have a new more affordable line within their line called Carousel.  These stacking mugs are from that line and they are already selling like hot cakes!

2spring1New Moonlight for Violet studs! I love how she’s always evolving and creating new things, like these polymer clay pyramid studs available in a variety of Spring colours!

Xenia Taler is a Toronto ceramic artist and she’s come out with some amazing new pieces this year.  I know her from my time at Red Pegasus and love the new direction she’s taken with her work.  Tiles can be used as coasters or as wall hangings.  Lots of nature inspired pieces as well as  other fun designs.

Izola has a line of stainless martini shakers, for the Mad Men in us all.  I’ve got two styles in stock, “Shake, Rattle & Roll” and the one shown above which shows “measures for the bar.”

I’ve been carrying Hello Lucky cards since I opened and just now decided to try out their gorgeous letterpress prints.  They definitely fit in with the whimsical, animal motif in the shop.

2springNew Frug is here! Affordable, fun pieces, something for everyone! This is just a taste (I love their chunky pieces this season).  Also lots of delicate pieces and animal inspired jewellery.

fredrick princeKind of cheating since technically I didn’t get this in this week, but I haven’t had a good chance to praise Fredrick Prince.  To be honest, I’m surprised I still have this piece in the shop, it’s BEAUTIFUL! Perfect to throw on over your Spring layers. Lots of great chunky pieces mixed with semi precious stones from this designer.

2spring2Lots of new bags in the shop as well! Spring/Summer Isak and Inger has filled up the shelves. Her beautiful fabrics and well constructed accessories are always an exciting addition.

Stocking Stuffers!

Posted on

Who doesn’t love rifling through a stocking on Christmas morning?!  It might be my favourite part.  Here are some great ideas to fill up the stockings hanging from your fireplace this Christmas!

This vintage camera key chain flashes when you push the button.  Also available in a regular camera and a space ray gun with an LED laser!

Team Art is a Toronto duo that makes these super duper, awesome mini colouring books.  Available in the themes above as well as: nineties pop divas, boy bands, cats, dogs & bears .

Wonderful winter of wintery wonder button set from Regional Assembly of Text is a perfect little stocking stuffer.

Smudge Ink has this great little desk calendar.  12 lovely images to look at.

Voluspa candles smell wonderful! Baltic Amber is a great cozy scent for the winter months. Their new vermeil collection on the right also has some fantastic holiday scents.

This Ampersand bottle opener is a perfect little gift for the writers, editors and book nerds, that also like to drink :)

Moonlight for Violet studs have been a favourite since I opened.  She now has these great triangles available in a variety of colours.

What’s New!

Posted on

Hope everyone’s staying cool this summer! Loving the heat, the sun, the warm nights, hard to believe I have product from Fall arriving!  Here’s a look at some new items that have arrived in the last little while.

The glass ware from Vessel has been a favourite!  I just got a shipment of new glass bottles pictured above, as well as stainless tumblers and even a water bottle that comes with a coconut filter straw that reduces up to 99.99% of the contaminants in drinking water.

Still waiting on the double wall glass tumblers, but in the mean time these 16 oz and 20 oz bpa free cups have a double wall meant for hot and cold beverages with the option of a straw or a flip top.

Decided to try out another line of silk screened onesies.  Made by A Little Lark in Portland, Oregon.  These 6-12 month styles are a perfect baby shower gift.  I’ve also brought in her line of letterpress cards and silk screened tea towels.

BlueQ is always a fun company to order from. Their new lavatory mists are a hilarious housewarming gift (for that right person/couple of course..)  Their tin boxes are constructed to replicate a vintage cigar box.  For your photos, sewing supplies and anything else that needs a home.

Toronto designer Shannon has been busy making new designs for her line, Moonlight for Violet.  These fibre wrapped curved bar necklaces are always unique! Gold plated and made in Toronto.

I’ve had Izola NYC in the shop since I opened, and I’m always excited to see what else they come out with.  Their 100% vegetable wax candles smell amazing and if that doesn’t get you then the packaging alone should.  Love the apothecary style jars.  Available in Rosemary, Lavender, Sandalwood & Jasmine.

Danielle from Zippan Designs has been adding to her line, which is always exciting!! Sterling silver, hand crafted in Toronto, one of my favourite lines in the shop.  The price is right, the quality is impeccable, the designs are unique and timeless.  Those little scissors even open and close! Love!

Erin Templeton has started shipping for fall, and I’ve already sold out of some colours!  The BYOB is made from recycled leather, with an adjustable strap and a little side pocket that fits a tall can.. you can’t go wrong.

And this beauty.  I have officially decided this is the perfect purse.  The medium tote, also by Vancouver’s Erin Templeton has a front and inside pocket.  The best part (other than the obvious beauty of this bag..) is the versatility of her straps.  It can be worn as a cross body, over the shoulder and even as a back pack!  Come in and we’ll show you how it’s done.  Available in new and recycled leather.

Lastly, the new issue of Pure Green Magazine is in the shop! Pure Green Magazine is an independent print publication for a stylish green lifestyle.  The magazine features eco style picks, innovative products and ideas, DIY projects, green home tours, eco travel destinations, organic recipes and more. There’s still time to grab one to bring up to the cottage with you, also makes a great gift for the cottage host!

Getting in new stock means making space

for it! 

Select items are on sale 15%-50% off!

Whoooo needs a cute little owl timer in the kitchen? Everybody.

Because every stocking needs a lip balm, why not make it Canadian made and natural! Available in Maple Sugar and Creamy Almond Milk.

VOILA!

Next on the agenda… stocking stuffers for him!

Scout’s first weekend

Posted on

What an amazing first weekend! Such a welcoming neighborhood, so happy to be a part of it.  The festival really brought out a lot of people and I got to meet some wonderful locals that I hope to see again.

 The Parade!!

Helping one of my favourite customers from the ‘hood Laura!

My Moonlight for Violet shelf is almost empty!!  The hexagon studs were a big hit this weekend, time to restock!

Thanks again to everyone that came by to say hello and see what Scout is all about!  I know it was a quiet, sneaky opening.  I’m getting ready to plan a proper Grand Opening next month and will keep everyone posted when I decide on a date!!
