Mozi is one of those brands that snuck up on everyone. You used to be able to find one of their…read morehand creams or candles in clothing or book stores. Now it seems as though this home grown brand is in major demand. They can be found in American and England, as well as in Hawthorn, Victoria. What I love about the products are the variety of scents and how subtle they are no matter if they are used in candles or creams. Mozi has scents from Egyptian lavender to quince and rose, spiced apple and raisin, to fig. They are never overpowering or smell fake. The candles are superb and come in different sizes and prices, the most expensive being $40. The Hawthorn store is gorgeous, it is large and light with friendly staff and lots of great gift ideas. Mozi is branching out and stocking baby wear as well as textiles and other great options for home décor.

I am so happy that I have a good second hand store close by…read more Although I usually head further in to do most of my vintage shopping I always make time to stop by Yours, Now Mine and check out the wide range of accessories, home décor and memento. It doesn't suffer from the over-expensive second hand fever that is sweeping our beloved stores (ahem Brunswick Street), and every time I pick up something and have a look at the price I don't have to immediately put it down and walk away with my head hung. There are always some great retro vases or platters in the window that hark back to a time where lurid orange and brown were chic and big belt buckles were king. Even if I don't end up buying anything, a short trip here is an instant pick me up. The atmosphere is fun, the sales assistants are friendly and the products are very kitsch.

There is no shortage of home decoration stores in Camberwell but Minimax has been withstanding the…read morecompetition for years. Selling everything from crockery to candles, cookbooks to mortar and pestles, Minimax is the ultimate home decoration and appliances store. I have to admit that I get a little nervous when I walk in - especially around the sections with glasses and mugs because I am paranoid about knocking something off. Towards the front you'll find the crockery and kitchen accessories including some pretty impressive blenders and mixers. The decorative candles and accessories are found further up the back. The store is pristine, beautifully cleaned and administered by a team of efficient yet sometimes aloof employees. The customer service wavers between very helpful and friendly, to cold shoulder of an employee who knows that I don't have enough money to spend there. If you don't get approached and asked if you need a hand make sure you track someone down - the staff are generally knowledgeable about the products.
