This glass and ceramic mortar and pestle from A+J caught my eye immediately. I love the contemporary design — and it comes in six gorgeous, bright shades. My favourite is this festive red, but any of the six will add a burst of vibrant colour to your kitchen.
Visiting the Olive Authentique booth felt like I was walking into a spa. The scent of their Ginger & Lemongrass line is so uplifting. (And using their skin products — like the hand balm — felt like a total luxury.) And, since everything is made with all-natural ingredients, you can feel really good about using it on your body.
Flavoured vinegar is very hot right now, so I couldn't wait to stop and check out Mr. Vinegar. He didn't disappoint! Mr. Vinegar has a line of delicious vinegars that he ferments himself, and my favourite is a brand new one: Apple Ice Wine Vinegar. Use it in your salads, or even make your own shrub cocktail for the holidays.

These scrabble-inspired glass coasters are the perfect gift for the man in your life. Artech Glass Blowing Studios makes them from recycled glass and I love the concept of reusability and upcycling.
In the Chatelaine Kitchen, we write our shopping list on a chalkboard wall, so of course I would adore this artsy, recycled-slate blackboard from Kino Guerin. It brings sustainability and functionality together, which I love. The blackboards come in various sizes, and the best part? There are magnets on the bottom of the board which can hold your keys!
These Triple Fish Mini Dishes from rcboisjoli studios are absolutely adorable. They look like little tins of sardines, and are perfect for storing your keys and small treasures.
I'm a fan of clean, modern lines when it comes to decor so this herringbone tea towel from Avril Loreti caught my eye. It's great for cleaning up messes, but just as nice if you hang it on your kitchen wall for a little pop of colour!
The almond butter toffee with a ginger twist from Sweet Truth Candy Co. is the perfect combination of classic holiday gingerbread and buttery toffee! I bet you won't be able to eat just one.
This gorgeous, smooth walnut rolling pin from Arbol will add a touch of sophistication to your kitchen. It's beautifully made and ideal for rolling out cookies, pie crusts and pizza! (Can be purchased online through Metiers d'art du Quebec.)
