WANTED WOMAN
|
JULY 3RD, 2008WANTED WOMANDesiring more than cookie-cutter vases and dime-a-dozen décor, we headed to Wanted, a new lifestyle boutique on the edge of Chinatown (look for the sign—it's the only storefront on the entire block). Owner Susan Schroeder fills the quaint shop with pretty little things, like indoor plants (think creeping figs, lemon button ferns and peace lilies sourced from local nurseries) and a succulent garden arranged by hand—don't miss the unique selection of bonsai trees. Add to that clutches and coin purses made from recycled wool blankets, beautifully decorated vases that start from tin pails, charming stationery, locally-crafted soaps, teas and jewellery, and vintage flash cards, quilted blankets and quirky stuffed animals for tots. What more could a girl want? Wanted, 436 Columbia St., Vancouver, 604-633-0178, www.wantedshop.ca Got something to add to this dose? Post it on our forum!
