Why Every Mom Needs Her Own “Mom Cave”

May 3, 2016 by Amanda Wood 2 Comments

We’ve all heard a hundred times over about Man Caves and how every guy should have a space where he can unwind, relax and just do “manly” things. And to that we say: Go for it, dudes! We’ll be hanging out in our brand new Mom Caves, thank you very much! Imagine a place where you can retreat for a … [Read more...]

Home Renovation: Week #1 Purging & Organizing

May 9, 2013 by Jen Leave a Comment

I know I have mentioned our home renovation before but not in too much detail. Mostly because I knew that not only would it take over my life for the next 4 or 5 months but it would also likely take over this blog. I am pretty sure that everything I do or think about for the next half-year will be … [Read more...]

Lettering in Awesome

January 17, 2013 by Tracey

I love to use letters in home decor. I acquired a large wooden "O" from somewhere along the way when Oliver was born, but after his sister came, and their room became a shared space, I found a smaller one - one in the same size as the two she received as a gift. (Still looking for a use for the … [Read more...]

I took Cuyler an Eva to an Autism Ontario event where we decorated gingerbread houses. Cuyler worked SO hard to make his just perfect. Little did I know what he had planned for it when we got home... … [Read more...]

Making a Gingerbread House

December 11, 2012 by amreen

Tis' the season of shortbread and gingerbread houses.  I don't know about you, but my biggest challenge with making the house is getting it to actually stick together!  My friend Russell made this video to help out parents at our school in preparation for a fundraiser.  I thought I'd … [Read more...]

Mirror, Mirror…

July 31, 2012 by Tracey

The other day, Oliver said, "I think we have too many mirrors, mum." I swiftly shot my finger into the air and cried, "NEVER!!"I've mentioned before that we live in a pre-war Victorian row house, which is characteristically long, narrow, and dark in the middle section - most of the windows are in … [Read more...]

Sprucing.

June 13, 2012 by Tracey

Sometimes a person can fall into a bit of a funk, and not even notice one's there until one starts to climb out of the hole.I'm not depressed, but lately I've been feeling the need to infuse a bit of change into the atmosphere. It's a natural by-product that comes from visiting other people's pretty … [Read more...]

Getting All Hung Up

September 12, 2011 by Tracey

I finally framed these two images for the kids' bedroom - specifically for my daughter - since my kids share the space. I want the room to reflect two genders and two ages. I knew these small prints by Canada's own Camilla d'Errico felt like the perfect thing, ever since I found them sometime … [Read more...]

And we haven’t even broken ground.

April 8, 2011 by Jen

For the last 6 to 8 months we have been planning a renovation. We live in an older home in Toronto and are only the 3rd owners. Not much work has been done to update or fix the house in the last 90ish years. It is time, folks.However, the more we talk about it and plan the more "stuff" gets added to … [Read more...]

Homegirl

March 7, 2011 by Amanda

At long last, I love our house. It used to be old and poorly designed but it is now newly renovated and the layout is beautiful and suits our family's needs. The problem is, I have no idea how to decorate it, to take the lovely bones of the structure we've built and make it our own. See, there's … [Read more...]
