Happy New Year! The new year heralds the opportunity of new beginnings. Now that the remnants of Christmas have all been packed away for another year, we are ready to refresh, renew, redecorate The Queensbridge Mill.

We have been busy as bees painting the rooms with fresh new palettes to wash away the winter blues. Nothing transforms a room more dramatically and less expensively than simply changing the colours on the walls. That's why it is called MAGIC IN A CAN!

In our continual commitment to going green, we are thrilled to introduce our new paint line: BOOMERANG. This product is made from recycled paint and is produced by the same company, Laurentide who makes Paint Cafe, our signature line. Proud to be Canadian, Laurentide is the leading manufacturer of recycled paint in North America!

Boomerang offers a palette of 16 beautiful wall colours to transform your home. It even offers recycled paint for floors & patios, stains for decks and 2 primers.

And Boomerang is only $15.99 a gallon. We have painted the wall in the picture MOSS, a beautiful green to awaken the senses to the coming of spring.

Drop by the Queensbridge Mill soon and be inspired!

Tis the season to gather and make merry with family and friends. It is also the season to decorate! We encourage you to have fun creating a wonderful, magical holiday!

Greg Nicholson, floral designer from the Village Grocer designed the beautiful urn outside of our building.

Greg joined us for our "DECK THE HALLS" Christmas decorating presentation. He showed us how to create stunning floral arrangements to enhance any setting. Visit the Village Grocer located at 548 Carlton Road in Unionville. Choose from an array of ready-mades or bring Greg your container and he can customize to suit your style. The Village Grocer carries all your fresh greenery and florals for seasonal decorating.

We used one of our "everlasting" garlands to dress this bannister. You can enhance it with fresh greenery to make it come alive. Replenish with fresh every 2-3 days as the real will dry out.

Tip: Keep a bag of fresh greenery in the garage to revitalize your "everlastings" as needed.

Karen and Victoria decorated this tree to complement the style of the family room/kitchen area of the homeowner whose house we decorated for the "Home for the Holidays" House Tour.

To create a warm and cozy ambience, little vignettes were created throughout the kitchen area tying in the colour and the theme.
