About Us - Ziya Blue Gift Store
Welcome to ZIYA BLUE, where unique and fabulous finds await!
It all began with a dynamic mother-daughter duo, Erin Reynolds and Janice Reynolds, hailing from a charming small town in northern Ontario. Their journey started in a picturesque northern Ontario town, and approximately 7 years ago, they found their way to the Niagara region and made it home. With a shared passion for creativity, they embarked on a mission to bring something extraordinary to the world.
Janice, a dedicated and incredible mother, decided to pursue her dreams after raising her four amazing children. She went back to school and became a teacher, eventually becoming the lead teacher librarian for the area. Meanwhile, Erin, with her impressive academic background, spent many years as a Cytotechnologist.
With a little extra time on our hands and an abundance of enthusiasm, we decided to open our own gift shop. And just when we thought we had it all figured out, the pandemic hit! But thanks to the incredible support of our community, we weathered the storm and learned valuable lessons along the way.
Determined to thrive, we relocated to the Pen Centre Mall, and it has been a game-changer for us! Our new store is bigger and better than ever, offering a curated selection of unique products you won't find anywhere else.
At ZIYA BLUE, we embrace diversity and cater to the LGBTQ+ community, and all the free spirits out there. We believe in magic, reality, and all things fun! That's why we meticulously curate products that capture the essence of these communities.
We're proud to be an official seller of the beloved JellyCat Inc. from London, UK. These collectible plush toys are incredibly popular and sell out fast! And let's not forget our other big sellers: plants! During the pandemic, we discovered our green thumbs and fell in love with unique plants and plant decor.
Our mission is to source products that can't be found in your average nursery. We want to bring you the most exquisite and extraordinary plants and pots because ordinary is just not our style!
So, why not swing by and say hi? Our knowledgeable team is here to assist you with all your plant-related questions and guide you towards finding that perfect piece of magic for your home.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for shopping local and supporting our small business. We couldn't do it without you!
Find us in the Pen Centre Mall, located in the vibrant city of St. Catharines, Ontario. We can't wait to meet you and share our love for all things unique, fabulous, and just a little bit whimsical!
