  • BEFORE & AFTER: breaking down the cage

    Ok, so I’m kinda doing things a little backward here but remember how I mentioned in another before & after post how my recent home projects were motivated by the completion of a bigger project? Well, this is it. It was a long time coming. Ever since I moved into my place I’ve hated these…

  • BEFORE & AFTER: rooftop patio beautification project

    I’m a lucky girl, I have a large rooftop patio all to myself. Something else I had been considering adding were French Patio Doors, as I think this would top it all off. I’ll have a think about it more, but I do like the idea though. It’s wonderful but I don’t think it’s necessarily…

  • BEFORE & AFTER: curtain makeover

    Get ready for a series of before & afters’s from my very own little corner of the world. When I moved into my loft over 4 years ago it was the ultimate bachelor pad and the colour palette on the walls was beige, dark green & maroon.(gross) There is no better motivation than hosting a…
