We tried a pillow from our travels to Thailand and a vintage throw from our grandmother. But our attempts at adding a personal touch to our home décor are still overshadowed by sightings of our boring bookcase and must-have-been-a-sale sofa. To the rescue: The Montreal debut of the Winnipeg-based home décor store, EQ3. St. Laurent Boulevard’s newest furniture addition is stocked and priced for more than window shopping.
We’ll start in the bedroom with an overhaul fit for a queen (sized mattress), adding a City Bed (starting at $599) customizable suede frame and 5 foot headboard. We can even throw in a few made-to-measure pillows in our choice of fabrics.
While our budget may not allow us to custom select wood for a new dining room table, EQ3’s accessories will make our old standby look good as new. The top picks: A Silhouette wall clock ($49.99), Wonton-esque Gammet 20-piece cutlery set ($79.99) and the Peak stainless steel salt and pepper cones ($29.99).
It’s like we’ve moved into a whole new home. (Minus the hassle of packing.)
