To your heart’s desire

Tuesday, November 9th, 2010

When decorating your master bedroom, your bed shouldn’t be strictly utilitarian. It should be the focal point of the entire room! Where to begin when choosing your bedding? With the headboard, of course.  Here at LIV we give you the choice of designing your own headboard. From the fabric to the shape, you can get whatever your heart desires. Here below is an example of what we have in stock, but keep in mind, this is just a small sample of what’s possible!


This headboard is upholstered in our Essential Pique White. 100% Egyptian cotton woven in Italy.


This crisp, white waffle fabric is also an Au Lit collection. The cotton is 100% Egyptian, woven in Portugal.
The wide variety of textures and prints we offer also allows you to coordinate your headboard with your bed linens.


This headboard is upholstered in Bella Notte’s flax Peony collection. Bella Notte offers a wide range of textured fabrics in dozens of colors.

An experience of luxury

Friday, July 30th, 2010

I’d like to believe that our beds at LIV are the most luxurious and not to mention cozy beds that can be found in the Greater Toronto Area.


Bella Notte bedding is gorgeous looking. It’s available in many colours and fabrics. Bedding that your heart desires.


Our very own Lavato line mixed in with Chelsea Stripe. Casual, livable luxury.


For a natural color and comfort go with natural linen.

“Nobody minds having what is too good for them” Jane Austin knew what she was talking about. And when it comes to bedding, so do we!
Oh and last but not least, our summer sale is in full swing. Our bedding is now at 20% off!
