Shop the Sweet Escape Muskoka: Wall Art
By far my favourite part of having a cottage is the fresh blank canvas to decorate. Let’s be honest, that’s what got me through all the hard work of fixing it up. This girl just wants to decorate, you know what what I mean? Being that it is a seasonal cottage and a short term…

Sweet Escape Muskoka: Cottage Kitchen Makeover Plan
It wasn’t until I sat down to write this post that I realized that I skipped a few updates. I may have forgotten to mention that in the middle of updating a vintage Airstream this Spring/Summer I was also shopping around for a cottage to call my own. It’s something I’ve wanted to explore for…

Cheerstream makeover: design plan
Giving a 1980 vintage Airstream a makeover, one cheer at a time. I’m not a huge bucket list type person, I rather go with the flow and see what comes my way, but there are a few things that live somewhere at the back of my mind that keep popping up. One of those things…

Kinda looks like this is slowly turning into a travel blog huh? Really though, I love making these posts for myself more than anything.

Sweet Escape: New Mexico Balloon Fiesta
Thanksgiving was a little different around here this year. While most people were perfecting their pumpkin pie making skills and digging out their stretchy pants from the bottom of their closet, I decided to jump on a plane and head to New Mexico. Obviously. Ok, maybe not so obvious. Timing was a bit unfortunate in…

Sometimes you get inspired to bake and you just go with it. Autumn is absolutely my favourite season and I just…

Loft Living 10 Year Anniversary
I realized over the weekend that as of today, October 16, it will have been 10 years (!!!) since I got the keys to my loft. I’m having a hard time wrapping my head around that. It feels like I moved in here maybe 5-6 years ago. This wasn’t really planned but I thought the…

Sweet Escape: California Road Trip Part 1
previous postFor real though, it took an amazing and epic California road trip to get me back to blogging. Not because I didn’t have good intentions but getting a full-time gig (see my previous post) where I helped to create content every day kinda took all the juice out of me. But leave it up…

That Awkward 9 month Update – Life of a TV Set Stylist
Soooooo it’s been about 9 months since my last post. Oops! And no, I’m not creating a little human. I thought I needed a short update post on what’s been happening before jumping into what’s new and exciting. Here’s the deal – I unexpectedly ended up getting a job working in TV. I know, don’t…
