Q&A: Dying a Duvet

Tuesday, September 30th, 2014

Q: I have a white cotton duvet cover that I would like to have dyed. Do you know of any dry cleaners that offer this service? Many thanks!

A: In my Smart Shopping Montreal book, on page 156, I write about this. The only store in town that I knew of is Nettoyeurs Vitalizing Cleaners on 901 Mont-Royal est. However, they will only dye 100% cotton garments like jeans, sweaters, shirts and coats. If there are any discolorations in the fabric, the only color that will dye evenly is black. Be aware that some threads won’t take the dye and there also might be a teeny bit of shrinkage.

Q&A: Broken Clasp on Handbag

Sunday, September 28th, 2014

Q: Just hoping you could please give me some advice as to where I could go concerning a broken steel clasp on a dressy little red purse. I bought it on a once in a life time trip to China. I hardly used it and now the clasp won’t shut properly when I press “in’ . Thank you for any help you could give me on this matter as to any chance of fixing it. I have not yet tried a regular shoemaker as I have been told that they won’t be able to fix it.

A: If you had looked on my website www.smartshoppingmonteal.com you would have (if you clicked on Repairmen in the upper left hand corner) come across the perfectly named (for you) Handbag Repair Company http://smartshoppingmontreal.com/store.php?s=133 It has also been in my book for 28 years.

Q&A: Gorgeous Buttons

Friday, September 26th, 2014

Q: Hi Sandra, Whenever I needed buttons I always headed to the dressmaker on Decarie on the corner of Queen Mary but they have closed down. Any suggestions (hopefully besides St-Hubert St.) of where I can go for buttons. Thanks,

A: In my Smart Shopping Montreal book I have at least 2 button specialists (plus more notions stores); Rubans, Boutons, (used to be on St-Denis), 7363 St Hubert 514-847-3535. This is owned by a button aficionado who collects them from all over the world and has antique buttons too.

Rix Rax, 801 Guilford 514-522-8971. Buttons and exotic trimmings. Works a lot with theatrical productions

Company Coming? Rent Kid Gear at Travel Buggy

Saturday, September 20th, 2014

Since 2006, Travel-Buggy has been a family-run business specializing in baby equipment rental for Montreal and the surrounding area. When visiting our city from elsewhere, you can leave all that bulky baby equipment at home: strollers (even double ones), car seats, bed rails, room monitors, high chairs, boosters seats, baby rockers and toys (3 mos. to 6 yrs). Travel-Buggy will deliver, set-up and pick-up your baby equipment.

– Do you have a baby or child coming to stay?

– Are you a new parent who hasn’t yet purchased a car seat or bassinet?

– Will you be relocating with your family to Quebec?

– Have you and baby arrived in Montreal, but your stroller hasn’t?

– Are you having a party and need extra high chairs or equipment for some wee guests?

All of their baby equipment is safety-checked, cleaned and sanitized before each and every rental. The equipment conforms to Health Canada’s Safety Guidelines for Children. They continuously check for recalls and product warnings.

Book early to avoid disappointment. Forget about hauling all of your baby equipment as  Travel-Buggy makes it easy to relax and enjoy your stay.
