Hibiscus Cotton Bedding at The Camellia

Hibiscus is a tropical flower, my home in South America used to have a red hibiscus hedge surrounding it. It is a common flower in the Tropics. The blooms come in a variety of colours, and there are single or double petalled varieties. This photo was taken in the Thunder Bay conservatory, where I sometimes go to escape the winter.

From Nature to your Home...... We have Hibiscus bedding in the most popular colour combination of grey and yellow. 100% cotton, totally washable, great choice if you live with kids and/ or pets.

Come into Camellia's today to look at the samples. We also have a Bridal Registry for bedding.

Flowers in Home Decor

What's in fashion in the field of Flowers and Home Decor? Some futurists predicted ( incorrectly..!!) that flowers would disappear, and we would just be using grasses to decorate with. Well...... flowers are stronger than ever in Home Decor, adding warmth, vibrancy, colour and texture to your room. Here at The Camellia, we specialize in designing Florals for your Home. Take lots of picture with your digital camera, and remember to bring swatches of the fabrics used in your room.

What to use as a container? Glass is very popular, with natural dried material used as filler in the vases. Look at the texture this adds to the room. This vase holds a dried palm branch, which definitely brings nature into your home.

Glasss vases come in all shapes and sizes, and at Camellia's, we have a wide assortment.
Our designer is an artist who creates a work of art for your home. She combines the container, the faux botanicals , and accents like ribbons, into a work of art made especially for your home.

Cheery yellow and blue fabric swatches. So inspiring!

Spring and Seedlings

Here's what stopped me in my tracks today.....this display of seed packets in Zellers, Intercity Mall. I started dreaming of digging in the dirt, with images of blooms floating around in my head. Burpee's Seeds, as seen in Thunder Bay Intercity Mall, Zellers. Tomorrow is March, yes ............! we move closer to warm weather and Gardening season..!

What are you dreaming of today? I spoke to someone today who told me her favourite Caribbean island is Barbados. She was dreaming of a dolphin burger..I've tried Flying Fish, but have never tasted Dolphin burger.

Camellia's...30/32 Hacquoil Rd. Open: Wednesday through Sunday.

Sleep, Time & Cotton Nighties

I wonder what's in the old armoire? This armoire is a yard-sale project which I recovered in Waverly Toile fabric panels.

As ones gets older, Sleep, or lack thereof, becomes a priority.

Promise yourself the Gift of TIME. Just 30 mins. at the end of the day will do wonders. Change into a fine cotton nightie or some cotton Pj's, and settle down for some R & R. Our Nighties are ever so soft and the ultimate in comfort. Cotton breathes, so if you're going through the M stage, cotton is what you should be wearing. You know the M stage, on again , off again with the covers, open the window, close the window, flap flap..flap..flap.. Which fool put the Fan into storage for the Winter? Go into the Stoargae shed and get it , Now!!..What do you mean,No?....

Sound familiar? Feel free to leave comments as to how you are coping with this.

We have many styles available, this is a Nightshirt, with slits on the sides. We stock large and extra large, all styles are roomy.

This is a new faux peony, flowers in a vase beside your bed will always cheer you up. If you travel lots, and can't take care of fresh flowers, this peony and you are made for each other.

Crystals & Jewellery

So much inspiration can be found in Nature! Take a look at this display of crystals supported by natural tree branches. This was taken in Hofland 's old location ( they have since moved to a larger facility nearby). Maybe you have used crystals similar to these at Christmas. Why put them away? Grab a branch from outside, come into The Camellia to get a stunning glass vase, and hang your crystals off the branches. Instant bling!

Crystals are predominant in Jewellery. Here's one of our pieces for sale in the store.

We are OPEN this Sunday, 20th. Feb. Noon-4p. Have a Happy Family Day weekend!
