Come For the Meatballs…Stay For the Kitchens

December 19, 2013 by Kath 1 Comment

This past Monday I bumped into one of my young colleagues in the hallway at work. I asked her, as is my wont, how her weekend had been. "Amazing!" she gushed, "I went to IKEA!" "Oh, I know," said I. "I love IKEA. It's a destination. And the meatballs: to die for." "No, but this was my first … [Read more...]

Kitchen Coordination, Like a Boss

November 18, 2013 by Tracey 4 Comments

People often say kitchens are the hub of the house, which is true - anyone who's hosted a party knows most of the guests end up jamming themselves together, cramming eats into their mouths, elbow to elbow, crowded over the dip. The smaller the kitchen, the more organised one has to be in order to … [Read more...]

IKEA Really is Family Friendly

September 28, 2013 by Alanna 1 Comment

Lately I've been spending a lot of time at IKEA picking up and returning stuff for our second floor renovation. Rather than wasting time on the weekend, I've been going during the week with LJ in tow. You may remember I went a few weeks ago and had a bit of a break down in the nursing room. I left … [Read more...]

Where do you start?

April 6, 2013 by Sonya Leave a Comment

It's been 13 years since we've moved into our house. Things are starting to look "well loved" and a tad dated. I'm eyeing the kitchen is the next big project. Jen Maier and I were discussing home renovations recently. I know she's been scoping out Pinterest and getting ideas for a while but we both … [Read more...]

On White Couches and Boarding School for Madame.

February 6, 2013 by Tracey

We've had a couch in our kitchen ever since we renovated ten years ago. The one before the one we have now was a loveseat from Ikea my husband still had from his first apartment, back during his university days - probably already ten years old itself by that time. It had a horribly dated … [Read more...]

Evolving Space

February 24, 2012 by Tracey

We've had, in our kitchen (which is used mostly as a common living space) some furniture mashed up together, that was "temporary." You know how that goes. We'll just put this over here for now... and then three years later, you come around to sorting out your wares. Sometimes you just don't have the … [Read more...]

Kid Style

November 7, 2011 by Tracey

Oliver is home today - not feeling well, he said. He rarely complains, so home we shall than remain.Since I can't really get out to do much, I'm taking the opportunity to tidy up some drawers - emptying them of the too-small items (which seems to be just about everything!) and pulling out the warmer … [Read more...]

Your Children’s Masterpieces

July 1, 2008 by Jen

Whether your child is in preschool or high school they are guaranteed to bring home more than a few pieces of artwork. It could be a finger painting, a self-portrait, or a three-dimensional clay figure - whatever it is, it’s going to need a home - in your home. Don’t find yourself knee-deep in leaf … [Read more...]
