BRAND NEW [WEDNESDAY]
Carry On Summer
August 29, 2007
We love plants, but they can be a lot of work. But that doesn’t have to be so, thanks to Kermodi Living Art.
This hip new store blends interior design with landscape architecture to create gorgeous works of art out of nature. They’re chock full of low-maintenance succulents, like aloe, jade, cactus, hens & chicks, and more. Plants come nestled in pots of all different shapes and sizes – think sleek designs and modern lines. To top it off, some of our faves are planted in a sea of cool, smooth stones. Talk about aesthetically pleasing.
Succulent plants need very little care, and they look great, so they make a perfect gift, whether it’s a housewarming, a birthday or a thank-you. Of course, we think you’ll fall in like so much, you may just wind up gifting yourself.
Come on now, turn over a new leaf, and share. . .
Kermodi Living Art, 1889 Powell St (at Victoria), 604-630-3759, www.kermodi.com
