I had the pleasure of working with Alex at Schoolhouse Electric. I was always so impressed by her ability to juggle several projects with ease. Her design concepts and merchandising visions are truly unmatched. The attention to detail is what always set her work apart. Alex’s taste level and style are spot-on. She is intuitive, dependable and would be an asset to any team and I hope I get to work along side her again someday.

Alex is a force to be reckoned with! Her dynamic skillset is eminent in every detail of her work and her creative genius is inspiring. The way that she’s able to transform the most mundane of objects or spaces into powerful, visual artwork is an instant value-add. Personally, she’s one of the hardest working people I’ve ever met, and would recommend her for any project or team.

      Vancouver's first zero-waste bulk refillery! We offer a variety of bulk refills. Goods like shampoo, conditioner, face wash, lotions and soaps, laundry detergent, cleaning supplies, and even DIY ingredients so you can make your own personal care products, green cleaning mixtures, and more. Additionally, we carry a great selection of sustainable homesteading supplies - dish brushes, sponges, toothbrushes, safety razors, and more. All are biodegradable or compostable at the end of their (long) life. You'll also find the OG of zero and low waste - vintage + secondhand home decor. Low-waste living should be affordable for all people. We've got you. Show less

      Let me help you design your space! I love to design a space from scratch, re-arrange a room, or just add a slosh of paint. Together we can compile ideas, create an action plan, and then roll up our sleeves and get to work. I have a love of all things nostalgic and in fluctuating states of graceful withering. I'm happy to help you source antiques and vintage items for your project. Let me help you design your space! I love to design a space from scratch, re-arrange a room, or just add a slosh of paint.
