I really am a fan of this store, if only I could be a true buying fan. The Cross Decor and Design is a beautifully presented store that provides a soft rustic, vintage and oh la la kind of feel.
With a healthy wallet, you can transform your home with lush duvets, gigantic cloud-like pillows, tastefully worn closets, ottomans, chairs and tables, modern and sleek picture frames and royally sparkling chandeliers. Not to mention you may adorn your child in frilly ballet dresses or prince charming worthy sweater vests as they hold onto adorable and soft plush animals.
I really enjoy the back corner of the store because of all the interesting and different books. I can find a book perfect for each of my girlfriends, like an Audrey Hepburn book, Paris books or memories of Gucci.
Cross is definitely a store you need to take your time in because there are lovely items hidden everywhere. I enjoy their Voluspa coconut wax candles in Eden & Pear, delicate gold and silver jewelry, unique and feminine umbrellas, kitchen ware, and more.
Overall, a good store to pick up a gift that isn't run-of-the-mill or buy for your future living quarters, or at least dream of it...Listed in: April Underdog CHALLENGE…

I want to give this store more stars because I want to own everything in here. The reality is that although everything is gorgeous some items do seem overpriced.
Regardless, I can often find inspired gifts for a house-warming party or a cute accent item for my daughter's latest bedroom makeover. There are some sweet baby things for a shower as well.
If we weren't a rather clumsy household I'd probably buy more pretty things here but spending money on breakables isn't a wise use of my tight ''mum' budget right now. For now I'll keep myself content with browsing and dreaming. -

Oh La La...
So European, so charming and so very girly, I love this chic and inspiring space!
In addition to some very unique furniture, light fixtures and linens, they have some wonderful books, jewellery and art.
This is one of my favourite spots to brows about with a tea in hand. I never walk out of there with out a great pear of earrings (Amanda Vogler is one of my fav jewellery designers), the perfect card (they have amazing gift wrap and cards) or a new coffee table book.
In addition most of the staff are absolutely lovely!
The only reason I am not giving them 5 stars, I think that some of their furniture is ridiculously overpriced for what it is -1 star and I'm not sure if it's the owner but there is often a tall blonde women found glancing about with the most unpleasant resting face that makes you feel a little unwelcome at times -1 more. -

If I could move into one store in Vancouver, I would want to live in The Cross.
All the decor is beautiful, with many different items at different price points - so while I may be drooling over the coffee tables and ottomans, I can at least afford a couple kitchen items and pick up a couple cute things for gifts. -

This place is awesome for gifts. They have cool gifts from all price ranges and they gift wrap everything for free as well. Oh and they sell really cute cards to go with your gifts too!
Maybe not the best place to bring your husband/boyfriend as it's pretty "girlie" (which equals boring), but this is definitely my "go-to" place when I want to impress and treat someone I care about. -

First time visiting this Home Decor shop in Vancouver the other day and it was so much to take in that it seemed almost overwhelming, everywhere you looked there was something that caught your eye.
Everything is displayed wonderfully and the sales associates are very knowledgeable, helpful and you can tell they just love working in the store. Prices range for $10 to many thousands. Lots of vintage pieces as well.
I walked out with a glass skull to add to the collection and it is just great.
They have an on line business as well and I will for sure pop in again when I'm in Vancouver since it is just down the street from my hotel.
A return trip is for sure in order - I think I might go back and buy that skull vintage glass trayListed in: 30-Day Yelp Challenge, Nov…, VANCOUVER HITS

I love most of the stuff in the store, but the quality is not that great which is why I was baffled by some of the price tags. You can find a couple things in here that are really cute (not many practical things) but this store is meant for people that have a lot of money and a lot of time on their hands. I do like their kitsch book selection (also not very practical but nice) and the overall layout is impressive, if I could live in the store I would.
The only thing that really put me off (and warranted the two star rating) was how rude the staff was to me when I walked in. I was looking for something nice for my mom, no one approached me and they basically rolled their eyes when I asked them a question. They might have had a bad day, but I thought the goal was to make the customer feel welcomed, not stupid for entering. -

For this story I imagine two siblings, twins I might add, one is male and one is female. Oh did I mention they were separated at birth? For all intense and purposes lets call the brother Liberty, and the sister The Cross. (See where I am going?) anyways Liberty is modern and eclectic and is into cool little accessories, and funny thing The cross is to. The cross has an excellent selection of furniture and bedding and so does Liberty. Both offer and extensive design service, and both like to sparkle. However Liberty is a bit darker and mysterious.. luvs the crows you know. The cross is a little more light and airy and little more girly. So depending on your style if you like a little more frill, and a touch of glam then check out The Cross

Enter The Cross and you will find yourself happily ensconced in the land of vintage modern chic. This delightful decor store carries only the loveliest of items for your bed and bathroom, as well as tasteful accessories for every other part of your home. If you never though you needed a gorgeous chandelier, for example, you may re-think that once you see their selection luring you from above. This is a fairly large store, so you will almost certainly come across something precious for your home, and if you don't find the found object you were hoping for, The Cross offers a design service to help you make your corner of the world beautiful.
