we treated ourselves to a few days in Niagara-on-the-Lake
a lovely town close to ~ indeed ~ the Niagara Falls
we had a wonderful stay while enjoying the Holiday cheer, wineries and delicious food
~
on our way back home we stopped in St. Catharines
and I am so glad we did because I found this amazingly pretty shop...
Simply White is located in St. Catherines
but their home decorating advice takes the team everywhere
in store you will find home decorations, pretty table ware in white and vintage furniture
produced by carefully selected brands from all over the world
I was lucky to meet Bren, the lovely shop owner
she redecorates this beautiful shop a few times a year
and even makes her own matching mural art... how inspiring!
thank you so much Bren, for allowing me to take pictures and feature you on creJJtion!
I will definitely visit again
and follow their blog from now on
but in the meantime I enjoy the pretty and wintery items I got this first visit
wool yarn spun around an iron thread to make it go the way you like
so much fun to work with in my January after-Christmas-white-home-make-over
I learned a new English word ~ icicles ~
with the snow that just arrived here after Christmas
I think they are the perfect winter~feel addition to our windows
and our dressed up card holder robin is no longer alone
due to his two new white friends
aren't they cute together?
Sounds like a lovely trip indeed. We were there many years ago when my youngest son was in a stroller -- he's now 13. Sweet little birdies! Wishing you peace, joy and love for 2012. Tammy
