Hello May!!
Happy May Day!!.
Goodbye to putting on heavy Winter coats, and boots, and hats , and layers. Hello sandals..and Birks..and flip-flops. I was woken up this morning by chirpy Robins, and sung to sleep by frogs. There are some geese in the back 40 and a pair of ducks.
Come visit #TheCamellia, try Rocky Mountain Soap wash - in yummy vanilla & coconut.

Lake Superior inspired decor.
It's almost May...and the start of fishing season. Here in Thunder Bay we are blessed to live on the shores of Lake Superior. Why not decorate your Camp in Lake Superior style?
At The Camellia, we sell all kinds of Lake related decor - signs, starfish, seashells, etc. LAKE is an easy decor theme to do - think canoe shelves, rocks, birch poles, and colours that echo the water, sky, rocks and trees. We have 1 Canoe shelf for sale.
How about this birch log fabric, good for making a quick cover up on a tension rod to hide shleving. That's Turquoise Cottage Paint used on the Birdhouse.
Stop by The Camellia and get one of our fabulously easy Tablecloths - water just beads up and rolls off, enabling you to wipe up a spill before it sets in. No more plastic on your table. Can you throw these babies in the wash? Yes, they are polyester.
Sizes : rectangles that are 78" long, 94" long, 126" long.
70" square for pub style tables
70 " rounds
We stock most sizes, and can order in the 126" rectangle.
Here is a 70" round.
Need furniture for your Cottage? You can special order custom-made wooden furniture here.

Sarah Richardson new series : Rental Cottage
Sarah Richardson's new series: Rental Cottage made its debut this week. Check it out at Design Maze : http://designmaze-tim.blogspot.ca/2015/04/sarahs-cottage-rental-living-room.html
We were busy getting our booth ready for the Spring Home & Garden show, so I was unable to watch the actual show, it's nice to have all the information on Design Maze.
Why are Cottages so popular? I don't own one, as I already live in the Country and the thought of looking after another place sans staff makes me shudder. However, renting a Cottage for a week holds great appeal.
Water always helps one de-stress.
If you have a garden at the Cottage, it's always fun to arrange flowers in a vase.
And the best part is being awakened by happy bird chirping.
Just having time to unwind, unplug, and just be. The cessation of rushing around, having to consult your to-do list , and looking at your watch every 10 minutes.
It's nice to not have to rush through a meal,
To discover new life.
What do you love about Cottage Living?
For hand-made accessories, cotton Bedding, & Mosquito nets, visit the Camellia, 30 Hacquoil Rd.

Open Wed. through Sunday. p(807)475-3551

Happy Easter
Seems like everyone is celebrating the 4 day long weekend. Easter seems to come way too early for me, I somehow expect warm weather, green grass, and fuzzy-wuzzy yellow chicks, RIGHT NOW. Not in 2 months. Have lots of memories of racing off to the seawall/ beach to go Kite flying, the vehicle loaded up with all my cousins and large containers of food. Reality here has been snow and ice, and mucky mess outside, and no sign of Mr. & Mrs. Robin.
I want to see Flowers, and green grass. How about you?
Pansies are so cheerful
We are now taking orders for Willow wreaths...all sold out at the moment. Call 475-3551 to put your name on a waiting list.
Cheer someone up this Easter with some flowering Spring bulbs.
Can't wait until the Robin shenanigans...they build their nests in the most unsafe locations, then start clucking at you in annoyance because you need to use whatever it is that they have built their nest around. Of course there is that moment of sheer delight when you spot Robin babies in their nest.
Come visit us at The Camellia -- we are Open Easter Saturday, April 4th.2015 from 11-5p. Sunday from 12-4p. phone (807)475-3551.
Don't forget The Spring Home And Garden show is coming up next weekend - April 10, 11, 12th. 2015 at the CLE & Sportsdome.
