Merrickville, Ontario  Mrs. McGarrigle’s Umbra section is a one of a kind display created by Merrickville’s own Rusty Nail Reclamation Design.

In keeping with supporting Canadian companies, Mrs. McGarrigle’s is proud to include Umbra’s innovative, modern, casual and affordable designs for the home in their retail store offerings.

Janet Campbell, owner of Mrs. McGarrigle’s says, “What better way to truly showcase Umbra’s designs than to hire local start-up designers/artists Laura Starkey and Jamie Carter of Rusty Nail Reclamation Design to transform and expand the retail space into an Umbra boutique.  Laura and Jamie’s hand-painted mural, in the room, echoes the playful, modern, clean aesthetic that is Umbra’s signature!”   

Over the past 31 years, Umbra has introduced products that have broken the mold and has created entirely new categories in the home wares market.  Many products have won international awards while some have received the acclaim of international celebrities like Oprah Winfrey!
