I'm trying to find bowls similar to this for our open shelving in our kitchen.
I love these ones from Anthropology
Pic link And these ones from West Elm
But I would not like to pay $15-$20 per bowl.
Has anyone seen anything similar elsewhere?
I have looked at HomeSense but haven't seen anything yet that I liked.

The upgrades we did through the builder:
-smooth ceilings on the main floor
-upgrade the standard hardwood on the main floor to a wider plank
-potlights on the main floor
-upgrade to maple painted white kitchen cabinets
What we will be doing after we move in:
-hardwood upstairs
-laminate in the basement
-granite or quartz countertop
-fancy backsplace (undecided)
We decided what would be more trouble to upgrade after the fact and went from there.
My mom built and got her basement raised by 1 foot to make the finished basement have a nicer feel. That is something that can't be done after the fact.
We already had a bathroom rough in in the basement included but if you don't have that included and would posibly like to put a bathroom in the basement in the future it would be worth it to get the rough in through the builder since that would be a challenge to add in later, or so I have been told.

Bumping
DH needs to see a RD because he was recently diagnosed with celiac disease. His gastro doctor told him he would be better to get a referal from his GP, so yesterday he did that, and was told that she didn't know any RDs and did not give him a referral.
So does OHIP cover a visit to a registered dietitian? Should he go back to his gastro doc and get her to give a referral since she was the one who told him it would be a good idea to see one?
Or should we just go find him a private one that is I assume not covered by OHIP?

We want to update the two full baths upstairs but because of how the style of tubs were put in we can't do it ourselves (will require new drywall, moisture barriers etc) and so we are looking for a contractor to do it, and also a plumber I would imagine.
How do you find one that you can trust? Any recomendations?
We just want something simple but updated as its currently very out of date.
