As much fun as designing a house is, decorating little kids rooms is seriously one of my favourite parts. I know this stage of life is fleeting, so I’m taking full advantage of this opportunity to let my imagination and design choices run wild. Adeline will be turning two shortly after we move so I want to design a whimsical space that will grow with her. I decided on a bohemian desert theme for her first big girl room and I can’t wait to make this space magical for her.

I have been hinting for what feels like years that we were building a new home but due to a seemingly never ending list of setbacks our home building project was delayed time and time again. Finally, I have an update post for you all.
We officially broke ground on our new house in spring of this year, and since then it has been an absolute whirlwind of activity. The basement was dug, the walls went up and now even the roof has shingles on it. From experience however, this is the part of the build where progress seems to slow down and things seem to look the same for weeks on end wh ..read more

The fall colours in Quebec are MAGIC. Growing up in Winnipeg, Manitoba, I’ve always been accustomed to experiencing all four seasons. But while fall in the prairies is lovely, it is nothing like the explosion of colour in Quebec. The bright red maple trees that explode across the rolling hills north of Montreal are truly as sight everyone deserves to see once in their life. Today I’m sharing exactly when and where to travel in Quebec to see the best fall foliage.

When visiting a new city, figuring out where exactly to stay is one of the most important questions. When visiting Paris, choosing a hotel in the right neighbourhood should definitely be a priority. The first time I traveled to Paris, we stayed at an Air BNB in the 12th arrondissement and regretted it deeply. While the neighbourhood itself was lively and full of local flavour, it was located far from most of the sights we had planned to see in the city. In the end, I felt like we waisted much of our trip in the underground subway tubes instead of sightseeing.
On our most ..read more

A huge trend for this summer is smocked fabric. From dresses to swimsuits, this sewing technique is showing up in a big way. Smocking adds texture and dimension to clothing while giving basic fabrics a fresh twist. I am personally loving all the smocked detailing on clothing this season. Because smocked fabric is stretchy, it is also the perfect choice for maternity or postpartum garments.

Now I know depending on where you live it may not be possible to host small get togethers because of covid restrictions so make sure to bookmark or pin this post for when gatherings are once again allowed in your area. These photos were actually taken pre-pandemic, when I hosted a few girlfriends for a tea party celebrating my 30th birthday. To be honest, it’s one of many blog posts that I put on hold sharing since the timing never seemed to feel right while in the midst of a pand ..read more
