Fall Floor Model Sale – 1244 Wellington Street West

We’ve had quite the busy time here at Fab the past couple of weeks- our furniture floor models are ON SALE! We hardly ever mark down furnishings, so now is your chance to scoop up a fantastic deal. We’ve already parted with our beautiful Walnut Leander Crib, the gorgeous Dutailier Papaya nursery set, and too many Monte Chairs to count.

The mega-sale is all in the name of bringing in new pieces. New colours, new styles, new everything! Monte Design is now offering sunny yellow fabric, which I think is particularly wonderful on their classic Joya Rocker.

If you’re planning your nursery, now’s the time to come visit- our awesome staff can explain how each piece converts into a larger bed or what Green Guard is, for mommies who want to be in the know. And, seriously, the best aspect of a floor model sale has got to be cutting down on waiting times. When planning your nursery, do remember to keep in mind that custom furniture can take as little as  4 weeks, or as many as 12 weeks to arrive at your door. All of our pieces are built to order, so nothing collects dust in a warehouse! If you’re under a time crunch, floor models are a great option.

New today, we’ve marked down the All Seasons and Mix Twin Panel Bed Set even further to 30% off. These guys have only been on the floor since May, and are in great condition!

 

Planning your room? Check out this great blog by Young America. It’s all about setting up a nursery fit for your little one- I absolutely love the looks that they’ve come up with! Specifically the book wall- what a perfect little library for your burgeoning bookworm.

Be forewarned, Fabbies, pieces are going quick! Come visit our Flagship location at 1244 Wellington Street West today!

Baby Paparazzo

Since I’ve started here at Fab I’ve become incredibly tuned in to the Strollerscape of neighbourhoods, movies and random websites. It’s almost like a grown-up version of Car Bingo as I call out “MacLaren! City Mini!! Bumbleride Indie!!” whilst watching movies with friends and family alike. I’m sure that this is an endearing trait, so I thought I’d share my obsessions with you, our Fab Public.

Some of our Faves have been popping up on popular celeb blogs like People.com, Huffington Post & Perez Hilton. It seems to me that Hollywood is rife with Baby Jogger City Mini’s. The Mini has been the stroller of my dreams for a while now, so ignore the gushing that will follow! This one-step fold stroller weighs in at 17 lbs and is ideal for travel- simply pull the strap in the centre of the seat and she’s folded. It comes in a variety of colours, has a lockable front wheel and boasts a double size that will fit through any doorframe. Celebs that have been seen strolling with either the single or double model include Halle Berry, Matthew McConaughey and Cynthia Nixon.

For the more active set we’ve been seeing a lot of the classic BOB Revolution. It has been the front-runner (pun fully intended!) when it comes to Joggers for quite some time, and shows no signs of slowing down in popularity. The swiveling front wheel provides the maneuverability that you need for city-living, but locks in place to provide a sturdy base for off-road activities. The Revolution has been seen while celebs like Gisele Bundchen, Alyson Hannigan and Jennifer Garner head out for a neighbourhood jog.

And finally we find ourselves at the heavy-hitter. The stroller brand that most celebrities are flocking to is the MacLaren. This family of strollers includes eight different models for you to choose from. They’re great for on-the-go parents who are looking to travel with something light-weight, yet sturdy. The most popular model for Fabbies and Celebs alike is certainly the Triumph. This buggy has a maximum weight of 50 lbs. It comes with a carrying strap, as well as a raincover and features a multiple stage recline. For a good indication of how popular it is, check out the huge photo album MacLaren has posted on their Facebook page. Amy Adams, Jason Batemen and David Blaine proudly push their models. And check out Jessica Alba below;
