Cross Canada Etsy: Montreal, Quebec

Montreal is one of my favourite cities. When Scooter and I first started dating it was one of our first "weekend getaways". We fell in love with the great old European feel, the awesome BBQ place we found, and the music coming out of this amazing Canadian city.  

As we were leaving Montreal at the end of the weekend we kept thinking of ways that we could move there, all of them included French classes :)

 

Shira Sela

Original art and fine art prints. 

Her work has been featured on TV and in magazines and I think its just beautiful.

Little Lion Studio

Baby room decor: baby prints and kids wall decals. Baby Abe's room is nautical themed so I totally fell in love with this decal!

Run System 63

I really love the beautiful fabrics and milatary inspiration in this clothing collection. Her military leggings rock!

Cross Canada Etsy: Hometown Edition

Kingston is a great place to live, all the big city amenities with a small town feel. Lots of great old buildings and beautiful limestone. Kingston used to be  the Capitol of Canada before it was moved to Ottawa and it shows in some of the architecture; our city hall is the old parliament building. Thought we'd take this chance to show some of the great Etsy shops here and give us a chance to promote our friends too!

The Thrifty Gypsies

Full disclosure, this is my sister in law <3 

But her shop is so cute and she always get the best yardsale and thrift shop deals, how could I not include her? I am totally jealous of her steamer trunks and all that gorgeous Pyrex that adorns her kitchen! Check out her blog here! 
And make sure to enter her giveaways!(one on her blog and one on facebook!)

Rhubarb Paper Company

Lots of adorable note cards, prints and felt ornaments. 

Plus, she's been featured on Etsy's front page! Hometown pride!

Our friend Emily has the cutest shop full of vintage toys. If you're a fan of retro Fisher Price or Playmobil make sure to stop on by!

Red & Turqouise

I am kinda leaning towards this colour scheme for our kitchen since we have some prominent red appliances already. I would probably leave my walls mostly white & use the colours as accents... do you think it would look dated to soon?

Mini Paper Bunting

Found this mini bunting tute via Ohdeedoh the other day. 

 Instead of printing off the pattern I cut triangles from some card stock I had laying around and glued it to some more of that left over wedding twine (I have TONS!) 

Got Scooter to help me hang it, as I shouldn't be horsing around on ladders right now  :)  It looks sooo cute and it really tying this nursery together!!!
