Our Story
“Make it Beautiful…” Since opening our doors in Chilliwack in 2008, that simple idea has been at the heart of everything we do.
From the pieces we choose to the displays we create and the gifts we carefully wrap, we've always believed that the little details matter. Eighteen years later, Winks is still a place to slow down, look around and find something beautiful.
A Place To Wander
There's something special about shopping in person. Taking in the beautiful displays, noticing the little details, and finding just the right gift when you weren't quite sure what you were looking for.
We've always wanted Winks to be a place where you can take your time. Where the shelves are thoughtfully filled, the displays change with the seasons, and there's always something new to discover.
Thoughtfully Chosen
Over the years, we've had the pleasure of bringing together a collection of brands, makers and beautiful things that we genuinely love. Some have been with us almost since the beginning. Others are newer discoveries.
From home décor and kitchen essentials to jewellery, fragrance, gifts and little treasures, everything is chosen with care. Our collections may change, but our approach remains the same.
Beautifully wrapped.
We believe giving a gift should feel just as special as receiving one.
Complimentary gift wrapping has been part of Winks since the beginning. In fact, we estimate we've wrapped more than 135,000 gifts over the years. Birthdays, weddings, new babies, celebrations and little just-because moments. It's a small gesture, but one we love being part of.
What a gem of a gift shoppe! Stepping inside felt like walking into a Hallmark Christmas movie - warm, whimsical, and beautifully curated. Every corner was a wonderland of thoughtful gifts for all, including high-quality luxury items and exquisite, fancy soaps. Winks and [her team] were exceptionally gracious and attentive, even wrapping our gifts and adding a final touch of care. We stopped in for a Christmas gift and left with a truly lovely experience. Highly recommend a visit!

Some things are better in person
The way we shop has changed a lot since 2008, but there's something about visiting a beautiful little shop that simply can't be recreated online.
That's why we've chosen to focus on what we love most: welcoming people into our store, helping them find something meaningful and creating a space worth visiting.
Whether you've been coming to Winks for years or are discovering us for the first time, we'd love to see you.
Come in, take your time, and make it beautiful…
