Our days of peering through the construction fence are over. Vancouver’s very own Crate & Barrel finally opened its doors this week! Goodbye dingy Oakridge movie theatre, hello massive showroom brimming with ultra-fresh mid-market home décor. In outright defiance of this wonky weather, here’s what we’ll be stocking up on for spring.
1. Adra Vase Big, bright, sturdy, with a trendy chevron texture. A fun showcase for tulips or Easter lilies. $40
2. Joey Glasses Good-sized drinking glasses in pretty colours we’ll be taking from the brunch table to the patio. $9 each
3. Crocheted Outdoor Pouf Everyone needs a good pouf. All-weather polypropylene makes this one perfect for outdoor use. And it’s bright green. $219
4. Plates and PlattersLoving the nature vibe on the Marin, C&B’s famously rustic collection of freeform dinnerware. $9-$30 For another delicious pop of colour, check out the Rika porcelain series sprinkled with handpainted blueberries. $4-$25
5. Pillows, Pillows, PillowsYes, the fluffy treasures that you could never help but toss in the car on those cross-border jaunts are now available right here at home. Pillows for all! $30-$80 (now 30% off!)
6. Napkin RingsWe’ll be keeping our unruly linens in place this summer with C&B’s fun and funky napkin rings. Busty burlap rosettes or sheesam wooden waves for the picnic table, and opulent ceramic medallions for the dining room. From $4
PLUS – From March 21 – 24, the first 25 customers each day receive a $50 C&B gift card! Store opens at 9:30 am (11 am on Sunday) Oakridgecentre.com
