Village Paint and Wallpaper

  • 4949 Dundas St. W. (at Islington) View on map »
  • 416-231-2831
Like the name suggests, this family-run business sells plenty of paint: colours by Benjamin Moore and Pratt & Lambert, as well as boutique label Devine Color, whose 120 muted shades were devised by Portland artist Gretchen Schauffler. But it’s the unparalleled selection of wallpaper that sets Village apart. Library shelves are lined with hundreds of sample books, representing the city’s most extensive selection of mid- to high-end papers; noteworthy names include Florence, Brunschwig & Fils, Katzenbach & Warren, and Thibaut. If DIY sounds deadly, a network of pro painters and faux-finish artists are available, as are in-home colour consultations. Custom wool sisal area rugs by Cortenaer and Hunter Douglas blinds round out the offerings. Knowledgeable staff are friendly; parking out back is free.
