Our second shop stop on Cannon was to non other than Relish Vintage!
Sometime ago when Downtown Bike Hounds had just moved to John Street, I blogged about the soon to open Relish Vintage (see that post here). Since Relish opened over a year and a half ago, I have of course been by the store many times but had yet to do a blog post (and I did want to do one!).
So after Kristin from I Heart Hamilton and I visited O’s Clothes we decided we’d pop into Relish too to share some of our love for the shops holding it down on Cannon Street.
Love the super bright green storefront exterior!
Store owner Katherine Hollands has a good eye for vintage finds and for selecting fabulous items from unique local designers. The store carries such a breadth of items that all seem to complement and work perfectly together. Relish has everything from refurbished vintage furniture to classic vintage dishes, greeting cards, wallets, bags and beautifully crafted Canadian made and designed clothes.
Relish is often my go to place for when I need to find a unique gift for someone. I’ve bought a beautiful leather wallet, greeting cards, and a set of awesome Christmas cocktail glasses.
My friend Lindsay (of Hoot Furnishing) refurbished the desk on the right with a chalkboard top -selling for $75! Both desks are perfect for the back to school season.
I also love the artwork that is for sale at Relish. The artwork on the photo above and to the right is by Sarah Holland. Her 4×4″ oil on canvas paintings are $25 a piece.
Artwork by artist Philip Grant -encaustic on board (with frame) $120.
Stop into Relish sometime there are always new things coming into the store. Say hello to Katherine you’ll likely see her in the store with her newest little addition to her family or with her adorable dog.
You can also follow Katherine via her blog Be Enamoured or on Twitter @RelishHamilton. Relish is on Etsy too -you can check out the on-line store here.
Loved touring the local shops and spots again with Kristin from I Heart Hamilton. You can check out her post here. Can’t wait up to explore together again Kristin!
