The bar you like is actually available at a store in Montreal called The Zone.

I'm totally checking that place out!!

Like WestElm - they don't ship to Canada. As for a Canadian AT, YES PLEASE. Does Structube even have stores outside of Ontario and Quebec? Hey Regina, write about some of the awesome...

I agree with what bepsf said (though I can't confirm the Feng Shui).

I've been to West Elm and don't think that a comparison to EQ3 really matches up. We have an EQ3 here in Ottawa, they set-up shop just a couple of years ago and all of the used furniture sites onl...

at times like this, I wish I re-read prior to posting. (On an additional note, I've used high gloss paint before and found it to be good. Just do one light coat at a time to achieve t...

You can buy a product that can help restore old finishes - I can't remember the name but looking at your chairs, they don't seem totally shot - just a little worn? As for doing it yourself, I say ...

Thank you SO MUCH for this post! I grew up in the Boundary Region of British Columbia (a really small region with the primary industry being lumber) and it really made me so excited to see a busin...

I.love.this.space. So beautiful!!!!

I love it, your space is inspiring. As an avid art collector/lover, I always want to get more but am never sure where I'm going to put it all. Your space showed me that there are LOTS of places t...

It's a little anxiety inducing to look at but I still want to see more...

I agree with what orchid said. I like your bedroom a lot and was surprised to see that even your cat fits the space! I have no idea how people keep orchids alive...

My first thought is that you must watch a lot of tv and my second was to ponder why the closet door swivels? It looks like it could be a cool design feature but I just don't get it. That said, it...

I love it!! Your vintage pieces are to die for!!! I also agree with lightspeed - can we see an AT Canada?? The decorating magazines here really cater to specific markets (like Vancou...

A couple of years ago I had just moved into an apartment - it really smelled bad on move-in and I decided to open all of the windows to air it out. No curtains were up, boxes everywhere, and it wa...
