And that's why I was surprised to find a quasi-furnishings store I actually liked. Granted, Provide in Crosstown carries more than just fixtures and accessories for your abode. Among the designer espresso makers are some pretty fashionable clothing items, which, for me, broke up the monotony of the selection of housewares (lamps, vases, tables, cushions, etc.). Someone must have had people like me in mind when they came up with the concept for this store. On to the fashion! I found some beautiful (although pretty high-end) tees by designer James Perse as well as some local style, like Vancouver's own Shereen De Rousseau's gorgeous cross-platform jewellery.

The general vibe of the store is very bright and open but still warm and cozy. Soft, luxe James Perse casual wear for the ladies and the gentleman inn your life will be welcome with very open arms as a gift for someone else or yourself. Unique pillows and throws will have you wrapping yourself up on the couch and hibernating next to your decadently scented boutique candle from Europe and a cup of Nespresso from that handy little machine that spits out espresso exactly how and when you want. The aforementioned scene is courtesy of Provide and there is more where that came from. Royal Doulton tableware, Niche Modern lighting, Dwell and Publique Living decor items from gorgeous picture frames done in stone to massive and stunning ceramic bowls, you are sure to be entranced by some very fab finds at Provide.

Most recently I found my favorite discovery yet: Styrofoam heads. But I've also bought a tray, plant soil, fabric dye, a random vase and a cutting board here. The glue in the latter unstuck after a year, yet the damage is mendable. The staff is always helpful and candle selection here is fragrant and varied. In addition to the street level madness (and the sidewalk boxes), there is also a basement level filled with plant pots and soil. Kitchen Corner was the only spot I could find soil in February in order to re-pot one of my ailing houseplants. The prices aren't really bargains, but the selection is quirky and gives that garage-sale feel without that coating of yard-sale crud.

I stopped by today and always get a warm fuzzy feeling in my no no place when I go in. they have it set up so that you can navigate the room groupings with ease. I am always on the hunt for fun dinning room chairs, as most of you know if you have come to a diner party at my house I don't have the best chairs to sit on. I came across a set of faux Saarinen chairs that made me squeel....I think I may be in luv.... It happened so fast the next thing I knew I was spinning uncontrollably like a little child, around and around, and around..... until the shop keep came by and asked me if I needed a hand, the only hand I needed was to help me out of the chair so I wouldn't fall over. needless to say they were a little out of my price range and sadly had to leave them behind... one day I will be back. oh and if you can't make it into their store they always list their wares on craigslist.

I had a mixed experience. I purchased a fairly expensive couch on layaway. I really appreciated…read morehaving that payment option. Through this experience though, I learned that it would have been a good idea for me to ask them not to cover the couch with fabric until closer to the final payment. I realized that the original colour chosen would not work as well as I originally thought. I asked if I could change it and pay for the added cost. They were a firm no. So now I have a couch that I paid a lot of money for and it is alright in the space but not great. The quality is very good and I am happy with that. I wasn't happy that the sales staff did not inform me of added costs at the time of purchase such as delivery and unpacking the item. So, that wasn't appreciated. However, the delivery guys were AMAZING! "David the Great" and "Guy the Beautiful" who does charming poses were so helpful, funny, friendly and went the extra mile. They provided great customer service and redeemed my experience with this retailer. After all this, I'm not sure that I will buy from Brier's again. I feel somewhat disappointed with the couch and wish I had waited on choosing the fabric, though I'm not sure if that would've been an option.
