Creative Marketplace


As I live smack downtown I am surrounded by shops, cafe's and restaurants. One place that I walk by everyday is the Creative Marketplace located at 1546 Barrington. I stopped in the other day to see if they had anything storagewise for my bathroom. They did not have what I was looking for, but, they had a whole lot more.

I walked away with these wall stickers:


Now, normally I hate these things. I think they are tacky and useless. I am still unsure of these ones, but they were on clearance and weren't a black and white chandelier, so I gave them a go. I think they add some colour to my all white kitchen, which is all I wanted them for. Who knows if they will stay up longer than a few days, but I can say that I tired them.

Back to my review: The Creative Marketplace seems pretty awesome. It is loaded with everything an artist needs. They even sell materials for those of you who like to stretch your own canvas; the only way to go really. There is a children's section dedicated to crafts and kid friendly supplies, as mentioned a canvass area, aisles filled with paint and brushes, crafting storage, drafting/art desks and loads of other odds and ends for those of us who like to get creative once in a while, or as a constant way of life.

I give The Creative Marketplace a GO even if you have little interest in crafting they sell home decor, notebooks and cute cards, and who knows, you may be inspired.
