curiosity on queen

A few weeks ago while shopping at Lime Blue Gallery on Queen Street, Jeff Kopish (artist & owner of Lime Blue) introduced me to Curiosity. Tucked away amongst the jasmine and cobblestones is a sweet antique shop with trendy yet vintage finds. Shop owner, Courtney, was kind to let me snap a few photos while Jeff, my Mom and I drooled over the collection of antique Blue Mason Jars, bins of vintage silver flatware, old trophies, paintings and more. As a lover of all things vintage, I was in awe of Courtney’s ability to display her treasures in a modern, clever way. Curious? Make sure to stop by to see Courtney and all her vintage finds…

a crafty reminder to stay curious…
