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!

Time Travel Vintage

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!

Mica

Beautiful jewelry made by Sophie Paolucci incorporating her love for the ocean by working with Pearls, Ocean Jasper, Turquoise and other gems she admires.

The Faded Tea Rose

Rustic, French inspired linens and decor...and they do custom orders!

Cross Canada Etsy: Halifax, Nova Scotia

A new feature for us here! We are going to be taking a cross Canada tour of Etsy, stopping in some of Canada's great cities (including our home town) and taking a look at the great Etsy shops run by some really creative and resourceful people.

Today we're taking a trip to the east coast of Canada. I've never been to Hailfax, but we did take a huge trip to PEI several summers ago and it was the most laid back and relaxing trip I've ever been on.

The people were great, friendly, welcoming, and I would def. recommend it as a place for a lazy vacay! Plus there's a great music and food culture so lets see what these creatives and putting out!
