4)  A Vintage Book Edition of the classic board game Clue will look pretty as a peacock in the library, perhaps with a candlestick. Or you might check out a handsomely bound edition of Scrabble to keep your household occupied on a dark and stormy night. Both games are available from HomeSense ( homesense.ca ) for $ 34.99 .

1-3) Someone’s knockin’ at the door. Add a touch of whimsy to your front porch with a doorknocker from Anthropologie ( anthropologie.com ). The cast-iron fox ( $38 ) is said to represent guidance as well as a crafty mind, while an aluminum bird is a sweet way to welcome guests to your perch — although the iron owl ( $28 ) is probably the most wise choice.

6) Serve some sweet-

and-savoury kibbles and nibbles from this set of four Frenchie appetizer plates , and your guests will sit up and beg for more. Stock up for the holidays for $14.99 per set at HomeSense ( homesense.ca ).

7) A colourful new spin on the old bearskin rug, this foxy boiled-wool animal rug is a wildly fun blend of classical and fanciful style. Let it lie in a child’s bedroom or playroom. It can be yours for a mere $49.99 from HomeSense ( homesense.ca ).

5)  Ornate hanging storage cabinets (hand-carved from mango wood, naturally) provide a quaintly rustic accent in any room. Standing 84 centimetres (33 inches) high, these pieces from Anthropologie ( anthropologie.com ) will set you back $228, but they’re worth their weight. You can display up to 15 kilograms (33 pounds) of trinkets on two shelves.
