“Make it Beautiful” - the tagline of Winks store, which is partly why we stopped by; because sometimes you just like to look at, buy or be around pretty things! Established for over 8 years, Winks is located on the corner of Vedder Rd and Stevenson (map below), in a shop offsite from a white house, which adds to it’s unique charm.

When asked about her product lines, Winks enthusiasm and passion shined through - not only for her products, but for the art and the artisans behind each piece. We have highlighted some of those beautiful pieces in the photos below: Sophie Conran dinnerware, Beekman 1802 goat soap (owned by former Amazing Race winners!), Sid Dickens memory blocks (hand-crafted in Vancouver), and the purrha jewellery, which is hand-made using antique seals.

If you are looking for a unique gift, or something special for the home, be sure to check out Winks where her and her staff will be happy to help.
