1. It's a jungle out there, but this cozy little conservatory area is a haven
from the outside world. Multiple shelves like these industrial wire-and-
wood wall units ($49) and the three-tiered gold number next to the
window ($59) hold collectibles and plants. A faux Sherpa chair ($299)
is built for comfort and a rattan plant stand ($59) doubles as a book
basket, all from HomeSense (homesense.ca).
2. They're slightly less fun than
a barrel-full, but these white
ceramic monkeys ($25) still
bring some playful attitude.
Paired with faux potted plants
(starting at $17), they're
displayed hanging around on
shelves and windowsills in a
variety of cheeky poses, at
HomeSense (homesense.ca).
3. If you've never had a Chia Pet, you don't know what you're missing.
Easy to sow and easy to grow, chia seeds deliver near-instant
gratification, reaching full size in a week or two. Star Wars: The
Mandalorian-themed The Child (Baby Yoda) planter is one of the
newest pets in the Chia universe. Buy it you can at Canadian Tire
(canadiantire.ca) and other fine stores for about $20.
THE YEAR'S FIRST PARADE OF
HOMES IS A HAPPY REMINDER
THAT SPRING HAS ALL BUT
SPRUNG. IT'S SAFE TO SAY
WE HAVE NEVER BEEN MORE
READY FOR A FRESH START, OR
MORE EAGER TO WELCOME
THE SEASON OF RENEWAL.
OUTDOORS, OUR GARDENS
ARE STILL IN DORMANT MODE,
BUT INSIDE, WE'RE SEEING
GREEN IN ALL ITS GLORY —
ALONG WITH SOME KITSCHY-
COOL ACCESSORIES.
