At first glance Fantastic Variety may look just like your average junk store. Well, it is that,…read moreplus a little bit more. I've managed to decorate my home with some pieces from there that I've also seen in more prestigious home wares shops like Provincial Home Living and Homeart. The beauty is because the shop isn't pretty, and because the stock is just stacked together in bulk, you'll get the same item at Fantastic Variety for half the price. Last week I was pleased to pick up some bamboo sticks of different lengths and sizes to go into a large wooden vase that's been empty in my living room for about six months. The same pieces were at Homeart and would have cost me $10 more for the same amount. They've also currently got some lovely French pieces; old hat boxes and war style letter boxes with French art and war stamps printed on them. To accompany the collection, French Bordeaux clocks of assorted sizes are also in stock. From $10 to $20, similar decorative clocks are available at Provincial Home living for more than double the cost. And unlike most cheap rip offs, these collections at Fantastic Variety are pretty good, to the naked eye at least you can hardly tell the difference and they'll make your space look just as effective, particularly if you're decorating on a budget. Some of my other fave items here are the assorted varieties of Japanese hanging lanterns, as well as bamboo door runners. My husband has a unique collection of islander wooden masks, and the lanterns and door runner have really added to the effectiveness of our 'tribal room'. Since relocating to a bigger premises within the centre, I've noticed the range in store getting more stylish and of higher quality. The store owners have also gotten a lot better at merchandising their best stuff and so you can see the value of some of their pieces in the window displays which have been quite fetching of late. So, if you're in the mood for some interior decorating on a budget, check out Fantastic Variety first. The window displays might even give you some good ideas and at least you'll be able to cost compare if you do go elsewhere.

As I reached the top of the stairs that lead you to Mr Kitly, I couldn't help but break out in a…read morehuge smile. This place is cool. At the top of the stairs is a smart display of books that range from manga to healthy eating. The room directly to the right has a huge low display of indoor plants that seem to be quite exotic with a range of pretty flowers and odd shaped leaves. The next room through in this cubbyhole of a store is full of designer artefacts and knick-knacks from around the world. There are Norwegian chopping boards and Japanese teapots - actually there are a lot of Japanese items, there seems to be a bit of a theme. I asked the guy behind the desk if this place is new and he informed me that it had been serving the public since last year. I had just walked past without ever noticing. It is hard to see! A cool little pocket of the world, one where I will be heading back to next pay day!

Down Sydney Rd one comes across a narrow flight of stairs beside a fabric shop that is rarely open…read more One could be forgiven for not ascending said stairs and moving on, but if so you would miss out the magic that Mr Kitly. Part crafty boutique shop of marvelous wares, part gallery and exhibition space, the quiet subdued nature of the place seems to makes the pieces stand out even more than they on may already. Indoor plants a plenty take space on stairs and room, with the shop area filled with crafty goods you expect from Brunswick's DIY craft culture elite - the pottery and jewelry kind. You pay for it, but you know it's good. And you may get a glimpse out the window to Sydney Rd, something that is surprisingly hard to come by.

Brunswick Bound is a particularly thoughtful bookshop. Not overly small and not large like the…read morechain stores, it caters to a variety of broad and specialty interests. There's a great range of locally designed cards, stationary and the odd bit of craft that make for great presents. A lot of the cards have some very cheeky local jokes on them, such as the cards with a photo of a zone 2 sign as part of the statement "I'd go to zone 2 for you" that were in stock about a year back. It also sells a small range of CDs and vinyl, as well as DVDs, journals and magazines. There's also a small gallery space upstairs that hosts bimonthly exhibits of local artists work. The staff are all avid book lovers and will happily talk you through your purchase or recommend something. It's also not too expensive, though obviously an independent bookstore rather than a discount outlet. Always worth a look in when gift shopping, or any other time really.

If you like reading, and I know you do because you're reading this review, then you must pop into…read morethis independent bookshop the next time you find yourself on Sydney Road. It's also a bit of an oasis of calm in here if Sydney Road is giving you aural overload. There's lots of great books, music, and knick-knacky gift type things to look at, so take your time about it. Grab a few books and find a spare spot on a sofa and just take a load off. If you've found the books you want but you're still not ready for pavement pounding, upstairs is a small, sun-flooded art gallery, and another space in which to meditate. Exhibitions here usually feature local artists. Brunswick Bound hosts the occasional author event too, so visit their beautiful website and get your name on their mailing list to keep in touch.
