We would like to thank Christine for sharing her lovely home, her imagination and her tips and tricks for small spaces with our readers.

SANDRA MACGILLIVRAY, In-House Designer North Rustico Home Hardware Building Centre

Christine purchased many of her building supplies at her local Home Hardware Building Centre in North Rustico. While meeting with Sandra, their in-house designer, Christine mentioned she was having a tough time finding the perfect kitchen backsplash. It was during the conversation that Sandra said I think I might have the tile for you and proceeded to pull out a bag of pale green tiles reminiscent of sea glass and beach waves. The tile was exactly what Christine had envisioned and the rest is history.

As a dealer for the Lexington brand of furniture, Zareck was able to get the chairs she wanted by customizing the fabrics and finishes to her specifications.
