Fine Canadian-made handcrafted articles including jewellery and greeting cards. And, of course many items have a hummingbird theme!The building structure itself has historic value dating back to 1904 when it was built as a general store with boarding rooms upstairs for millworkers in this former lumbering and fishing community. The section now housing our store was where staples such as 100 pound bags of flour and sugar, barrels of molasses, coal oil and many other items needed by people in a small, then isolated, northern community were stored. In 1948 'the storeroom' became the Post Office and over the years has been the location for many businesses including a fried chicken take-out, home-made fudge shop and reputable jewellery store.The exterior will catch your eye with our massive hanging flower baskets and trailing window boxes that attract both hummingbirds and butterflies

My name is Jaime Balsom, and I grew up in Hepworth, ON, just 10 minutes from Wiarton. I graduated from Wiarton District Highschool and moved away to experience life in Picton, Peterborough, and Breslau to then finally move back to my hometown area 12 years later (that was December 2006). I have invested in my dream of owning my own store, which is called WITH LOVE. With the love and support of my family and friends, I was able to make my dream a reality and opened in May 2007.Through my numerous life experiences in jobs (from being a server, to a receptionist to working at a casino), as well as my personal interests, I have been molding my creativity and insight to develop the distinctive array of products for several years.
