Until Next Time At The Calgary Home + Garden Show

The 34th annual Calgary Home + Garden Show took the city by storm this past weekend, and what a show it was! with over 650 exhibitors and features, incredible Home + Garden Stage presenters including HGTV's Carson Arthur and design duo Janette Ewen and Jef Hancock, inspiration and expert advice was nothing short of abundant.

For those of you that weren't able to make it, we've rounded up our favourite moments from the show! Be sure to make your calendars for the Calgary Home + Design Show, coming to the BMO Centre at Stampede Park from September 17-20, 2015.

Carson Arthur from HGTV Canada's Critical Listing took to the Home + Garden Stage to share his know-how on adding value to outdoor spaces.

The crowd loved design duo and co-owners of Parker barrow, Janette Ewen and Jef Hancock, as much as their advice on quick fixes and updates for the home.

With DIY projects on everyone's to-do list (Pinterest, anyone?), many a show-goer got crafty with Blue Grass Nursery, building terrariums and mini gardens at Contain Yourself.

Home Tweet Home was the talk of the town, helping worthy families by auctioning off artfully-designed birdhouses by 20 of Calgary's media personalities and designers. In total, $2,535 was raised for Ronald McDonald House® Southern Alberta.

The revolve home was undoubtedly the biggest showstopper - literally. Shoppers stopped in their tracks to check out the mod eclectic beach design, created by the experts at revolve furnishings.

Thanks so much to everyone who joined us for a great show! Until next time, happy gardening!
