ANNIVERSARIES
Home Beauty
Muffet & Louisa is celebrating its 32nd birthday this month! Over the years they’ve seen two stores in Sidney in the ’90s, another in Victoria which operated for 10 years, and now their current location at the bottom of Beacon, where the’ve resided since 2010.
Since the fall of 2016, they’ve shared their store with Barking Dog Studio, leaving ample room for all the great products upon which they have built their reputation as one of the best home stores in our area. They showcase as many Canadian products as they can, and have a special love for Canadian-made bed linens and down duvets and pillows. Over the last few years they have built-up a specialized niche making custom bed linens for both homes and yachts, giving customers exactly what they want and need. They extend their thanks to their wonderful customers for supporting them over the years, for following them as they’ve grown and for helping them become a destination for anyone who desires beauty and excellence in their home. Congratulations on your success, and cheers to many wonderful years ahead!
