Calling All Design-Savvy Vintage Lovers!

Ok, here's the big news - Relish is looking for interns!

(Bertha said she'd do it, but it's hard to count out change for customers when you have no thumbs!)


I'm really looking forward to having interns to help me out here at the shop, since this will free me up to source out even more amazing vintage pieces and new product lines for Relish. And new people getting invoved also means new ideas and a fresh set of eyes, which is always helpful.

If you want to learn more about design, furniture, vintage and the ins and outs of running a small business, not to mention getting involved in the great scene on James St N, this just might be perfect for you!

I'm looking for a couple of interns to work anywhere from 6 to 12 hours per week starting in May. You must be responsible, comfortable using social media, able to work unsupervised, mature, friendly, outgoing, and have an eye for design.

If you're interested in getting involved at Relish, please email  me a quick note about why you think you'd be a great Relish intern, along with your resume and contact info, to me at info@relishvintage.ca.

And please feel free to include any questions you might have about the position! I'd be happy to provide you with some more details.

Looking forward to hearing from you!

Great New Vintage at Relish!

Relish finally has some new vintage pieces in stock!

First is this gorgeous 2-piece solid wood hutch. It's a lovely mossy green with an antiqued finish, has 2 upper shelves, a nice wide drawer and a cupboard below with shelving. All kinds of storage!

This piece would be great as a sideboard in a dining room, a unique kitchen cabinet, stylish bathroom storage, or an accent piece in the living room. So many option!

Here are some before pictures, 'cause we all love the before/after shots!
weird checkerboard upper door and ugly hardware!

new hardware installation in progress...

we're getting there!

so much better, right?


And before I forget, there is one other great vintage piece that's new in the shop - this great mid-century coffee table. It's got great lines and proportions, and a glass top so it doesn't take up too much visual space.
Pretty stylish, huh?

Hope to see you all soon!

New Outfits!

My two lovely Judy ladies at Relish have new spring outfits - take a look!

The lovely Monet Chemise from Allison Wonderland and the Hearland Wrap Skirt from Simone's Rose (so popular this is the last one of these skirts we have left!)

The gorgeous Carolyn Top (in a drool-worthy linen - and wait till you see the details!) from Montreal's Eve Gravel and the Coastal Skirt from Allison Wonderland's eco-friendly line, Pillar.

A close-up of that Monet Chemise - the most beautiful fabric, or what? It's actually a cotton, but it feels like silk. So lovely!


Just look at the side and back detailing of this Carolyn Top - it's just SO delicate and sexy!


Lucky for all of you, all new spring arrivals are 30% off right now, and the rest of Relish's clothing stock is 50% off. So what are you waiting for??

See you soon!

The Latest Refinishing Piece at Relish

This is the latest vintage piece I've refinished for Relish - I've been dying to bring it into the shop for a couple of week, but I had to wait until last week so the paint could cure.


Isn't this the most lovely piece?! As usual, I wanted to keep it for myself. But I was good - here is the work in progress...





Ta-Da!!!!

Hope to see you all out at Art Crawl on Friday!
