We scoured the Calgary Home + Garden Show for spring's must-haves. Herewith, our top picks:

Divided into three sections (interiors, exteriors and resources), The Decorator’s Journal ($34.95) is the ultimate in reno organization with pages for sketching floor plans, measurement charts and zip-lock style pockets to hold paint chips, fabric swatches and wallpaper samples.

Eco-friendly and energy-efficient, the Bio Flame Bioethanol fireplaces are sexy, sleek and ideal for small spaces.

The lightweight concrete vanities by 2Stone Designer Concrete make for a bold bathroom statement. Sinks (pictured) come in over a dozen hues and each piece is handmade and tailored to your home. http://2stone.ca/
