Happy Earth Day 2022, The Camellia, Thunder Bay, On

hands holding a globe with mask

It's Earth Day today, every year on April 22nd., Earth Day marks the anniversary of the birth of the modern environmental movement in 1970. No-one can deny that climate change is happening, and that we all have to do our part to protect our Earth.

Some places are experiencing floods, while other places have problems with droughts. We all love looking at beautiful places, like this lovely meadow of Flowers, and we all have to do what we can to ensure that the Earth remains a beautiful place to live, for generations to come. 

Here at The Camellia,  we sell Cottage Paint, which you can use to redo old Furniture, saving that Furniture from being dumped in the landfill. Learn more about Cottage Paint by watching this video:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ObCDX9dNO4. Cottage Paint is a special blend of clay, chalk, and mineral paint for Furniture, with low voc's ( not much smell), and water-based. See below the steps of  how-to-do a 2 colour distressed finish, on a piece of Furniture.
