A Visit to Art Knapp, Courtenay,Vancouver Island, Part 1

It's that time of the year when we are anxious to get into our Gardens, the weather here in Thunder Bay is a bit chilly, actually it's been cold, but plants do like cool, damp weather, so it's the perfect time to garden right now. Today we're sharing some photos from Art Knapp to get you inspired for Garden season! 

The Coastal/Seashore/Lakeshore theme is huge in Decor. Blues, Aquas, beiges, & turquoises. 

You can achieve this look with #CottagePaint which we sell at #TheCamellia. You will be amazed at how you can spruce up an old, outdated piece with Cottage Paint. 

Whites are classic, and always in style. 

We have all kinds of cool stuff for your Garden right here at The Camellia. You might have seen this Fairy statue at the Art In Design Spring Home Tour which we took part in this weekend. You can purchase her at The Camellia on Hacquoil Rd. 

Garden lanterns are so beautiful on the Porch. These can be purchased at Bloomers and the  Brownhouse on Archibald St. , a set of 2 for $75.00 +hst. 

Come visit The Camellia, at 30/32 Hacquoil Rd.
