THIS MONTH: Great Style, Great Value, and Great Stock!





As someone who often needs to buy furniture and accessories 'yesterday', I have truly come to appreciate West Elm.

Anyone who has been excited to find the perfect piece for their home, only to find out it will take 4-10 weeks for delivery knows what I'm talking about.

Located in Liberty Village, West Elm is a sister company to Pottery Barn but with a more contemporary, zen style (think more Crate & Barrel).

They offer a great selection of furniture, as well as the full spectrum of accessories.


For the decorating-challenged, their products all coordinate and flow together, tending towards calm neutrals and playing with textures. They have a great core of basic pieces but with a nice side of unique, funky suprises as well.




The quality is good, prices fall around the halfway mark between Ikea and Pottery Barn depending on what you're looking for. Not to mention the great sales they offer.




The best part? They have a massive warehouse so most items can go home with you or delivered within a couple of days.

Their staff is unbelievably helpful and friendly without being overbearing and can really help you pull a room together or track down a piece that will fit.


You cannot order online for delivery in Canada but they carry pretty much everything you see on the U.S. site in their Toronto store.

Enjoy shopping!
