Newbury Interiors

If you're heading down to Westboro this weekend, do check out one of Ottawa's newest interior furnishings stores, Newbury Interiors, at 427 Richmond Road. This gem of a store is an absolutely terrific newcomer to the Ottawa design scene, and I'm sure you won't be disappointed when you visit. Here are some photos of lamps I loved, plus a stunningly upholstered chair by Harden --(don't you just love the orange?) -- and a couple of accessory shots. I've also included a shot of NI's washroom -- visible to the store --because I just love the wallpaper they've chosen. This is a classy, creative store with panache. Enjoy -- and have fun shopping!

Casa Luna

If you've never been to Casa Luna, on Innes Road in Orleans, you must go -- now! Alex Grooscors and his wife, Diane Dumas, have filled their store with the most beautiful furniture, art, and accessories imaginable -- all from their travels in Latin America. I have SO many shots of beautiful items from their store, but I'll just share a few to entice you to visit. And, please do check out their Web site at http://www.casaluna.ca/ It views like a travellogue, and the photos under Our Travels are breathtaking. Enjoy!
