Coriander Girl is a vintage lover’s destination of choice when looking for stunning, fresh arrangements to take home. Joining the array of seasonal florals are handpicked antiques and local crafts, practically ensuring that one does not leave this Queen and Sorauren gem empty-handed.
Flowers are their specialty but like any successful business, they’ve expanded to include multiple aspects that create a more rounded picture. While you’re picking up an antique cash register, ironing board or mirror, decorate it right away with a bouquet of gorgeous fresh flowers. The prices are pretty reasonable, so there’s no reason why you can’t pick up a little something extra, like delicious-smelling candles. Just make sure you pick out what you want before someone else does.
If you’re a floral enthusiast living in Toronto there’s a good chance you’ve spotted Alison Westlake’s garden-inspired bouquets on your Instagram feed. The eternally sweet floral designer works within your budget (whether you want to spend $10 or $100) to create pretty seasonal bunches that can be hand-tied with string or put in a Mason jar vase. The shabby chic Parkdale shop also carries a whimsical array of antiques, gifts and stationery. Look out for Alison’s white rabbit, Harry; the in-store mascot can often be found hopping around the shop.
