Sharon Lockwood, Founder & CEO
ZayZay evolved from a vision I conceived three years ago. After running my own successful design practice in Toronto for many years, I felt a deep desire to expand my creative license, to push the limits, to produce works that exploded with colour and energy. I wanted to steer a new course, combining my graphic skills with my paintings, and applying these original compositions to textiles.
Ironically, this is a return to my original foundations in textile design: I was raised in London, England, and it was there that I attended art school to specialize in textiles. I later attended OCAD University in Toronto to study visual communications. And now, these two disciplines have merged into one.
Using the latest digital technology, we have been able to achieve the most remarkable blends of colour, from the most subtle to the most intense and saturated hues; something not attainable with conventional rotary printing.
Much research has gone into the making of these premium ZayZay confections. We travelled the world to inspect factories and manufacturers capable of producing extra-wide format textiles, finally settling on a company in Portugal with the right combination of quality, ethical labour conditions and environmental integrity.
We then set out to transform the often neutral comfort zones – including the bed surface – into a vibrant statement, a refreshing alternative to beige and gray palettes. We wanted to shift the energy in the bedroom through bold artistic expression, to transform the duvet cover into a conduit to conversation. The results have been extraordinary, allowing you to turn your bedroom into a work of art and elevate the romance factor at the same time.
Your bed will not only look gorgeous, it will also feel absolutely wonderful once you’re tucked in.
I am beyond excited by what lies ahead for ZayZay. New worlds are unfolding! I invite you to wander through our collection and experience the exuberance of this new line of linens, the perfect gift for you or your friends.

Featured Whisky Sponsor – J.P Wiser’s
In the late-1800s, John Philip Wiser, or J.P. as he was fondly known, set out in Canada at a deliberate and steady pace to build a company that was known for its quality, craftsmanship, and premium products. So began a long tradition of Canadian whisky making. J.P. Wiser’s ambition was simple – to produce the highest quality whisky that pleased the eye, nose, and tongue. Using only superior ingredients, he aged his whisky to distinction in premium white oak barrels – and over 150 years later, J.P. Wiser’s whisky is still made using traditional recipes to ensure that the final product lives up to the standards set out by J.P. Wiser many generations ago.
A perfectionist in all his undertaking, J.P. Wiser used only the finest ingredients and demanded the hightest standards for his signature Canadian whisky. Continually improving and advancing the whisky-making method, he aimed to refine the process and set new standards. Many products of that day were glaringly impure and under-aged, but J.P. Wiser’s whiskies soon became known for being blended with exacting care and aged to perfection in white oak barrels.

Founded as “MultiVision” in 1974 the company originally provided specialized audio visual solutions for corporate boardrooms, museums, planetariums, expo’s, and temporary event installations.
Growing steadily over the first 15 years, MultiVision gained the reputation of providing reliable equipment and stellar service for projects world wide. After securing a multi-million dollar museum installation in Ottawa in 1989, MultiVision was purchased by their long time supplier of audio/video control systems; namely UK based Electrosonic Systems. Mainly due to the inflow of new technology and long standing global relationships, now “MultiVision Electrosonic” had 10 solid years of growth and success.
Ultimately, due to the rate of technological change and unique demands from the customers and dealers in the North American marketplace, it became evident that MultiVision Electrosonic’s Rental Division would benefit by restructuring into a more mobile and flexible firm. In order to best support the growing service oriented customer base the Rental/Staging Show Division underwent a Management Buyout in 1999 by existing staff to become today’s MVI – MultiVision Inc. and promptly invested in emerging LED video display technology.

Alcohol Sponsor: Steamwhistle
The Steam Whistle story begins in the spring of 1998 when three friends were on a canoe trip in the Ontario heartland. Greg Taylor, Cam Heaps and Greg Cromwell had all been colleagues at one of Canada’s premier microbreweries producing quality beer in the late 1980’s and 90’s – before it was bought out by a national brewer and closed down. As they sat around the campfire, the self-named “Three Fired Guys” dreamed of running their own brewery one day.
They wanted to make a Pilsner that would compete with the best in the world. They wrote a plan and quickly attracted investors with their vision and passion.
We believe that world-class results require focus and dedication, so we developed a distinctive recipe for our single brand based on Europe’s renowned brewing standards yet is brewed fresh locally at our independent, Canadian Brewery.
We use traditional brewing techniques and only four natural ingredients including spring water, malted barley, hops and yeast – all GMO-free. There is a fifth ingredient in every refreshing bottle, and that is the passion of our dedicated Brewmaster and staff.
