Spring Home and Garden Show, 2012, The Camellia, Thunder Bay, On

We've been busy making up product for the Garden show. We are so excited about Spring, we wet our plants!! The recent warm weather has helped open up the buds.

Lost of work preparing for Trade shows.

We especially remember today, our Uncle Albert whom we lost yesterday. I would bug him to get me hydrangea blossoms from a certain house which his family used to own. He was always upbeat, and never once said..I don't want to knock on strangers' doors asking for flowers!! We will miss your cheerful face.

Come visit The Camellia at the Spring Home & Garden show at the CLE/Sports Dome which starts this Friday.

French & European Country Decor at The Camellia

Mini framed prints, found in un magasin at the bottom of Sacre-Coeur....in Paris..... we have different prints in stock at the store.

Cheery Provencal fabrics, from the markets in Provence, sold by the yard.

We carry provencal and Toile Fabrics. Here is one of the cushions we make, with a toile and an alternating check, in Waverly fabrics.

All kinds of faux stone finishes are part of this look. Details are added around Fireplaces, and also around doorways, and mirrors.

These are replicas of old advertising signs in Tin. This one would be perfect for a bathroom.

When you visit Europe, you can't help but notice the lace curtains in all the windows. We carry Heritage Lace, a high quality, washable lace, made in the U. S. Come in store to see the many patterns and colours available. Best of all, no ironing needed.

Hand-painted signs are painted here at The Camellia, so bring in your sayings, and we'll paint them for you. Please order ahead.

Painted finishes are part of the European country look. This is an old cabinet which I painted, using Hide glue as a crackling agent. Then I used a Wisteria stencil in the middle of the door panels.

Tres Chic Hooks, good for organizing everyday necessities.

Here at The Camellia, we are in love with Lavender. You will find a wide selection of Lavender bunches, lavender buds, lavender soaps, lotions, room sprays, and sachets. I still remermber the smell of Lavender when walking into the foyer of a Gite in Forcalquier, she had placed a huge vase of Lavender buds in the middle of the room, and the smell was everywhere.

Le Cigale is the symbol of the South of France, this is a wonderful Lavender Cigale soap.
