Overhaul your sweeping tools with a sustainable old-school broom
Granville Island Broom Company’s brooms are beautiful and built to last
Ready to enter the New Year neat and tidy on the home front? Don’t fly off the handle at the thought — perhaps you just need the right tool?
A visit to Granville Island Broom Company is sure to coax out your cheerful inner housekeeper. The creative Vancouver-based team makes handcrafted brooms from sustainable materials in a variety of shapes and sizes for almost any application.
Choose from Shaker-style or round, full-size brooms, car whisks and even veggie scrubbers.
Our favourite? The classic Cobwebber for ceiling corners. The brooms are beautiful, functional and built to last — plus folklore says that brooms are symbols of good luck, thought to sweep away evil and bad fortune, adding harmony to the home front. Bring it on!
