Travel Dreams During COVID-19
Let me preface this post by saying I am one of the luckiest people in the world. I am healthy. My loved ones are healthy. I still have my job, as do my friends and family. There have been some bumps along the road, but overall, I have been experiencing this pandemic without much difficulty. […]

Master Bedroom Inspiration
I’ve got bedrooms on the brain. I’ve got a fairly small master bedroom with a small window above the bed. It’s not exactly ideal. So I’ve been scouring the Internet looking for ideas. I want to maximize the window as much as I can, and make the small size feel cozy rather than tight. The […]

My Very Own Butler’s Pantry
I’ve always dreamed of having a butler’s pantry. Is that strange? Maybe, but the first time I was in a house that had one I kind of fell in love. It’s not like having one kitchen isn’t enough, but I’ve always loved the idea of having a separate space next to the main kitchen to […]

10 Tips for New Runners
I am not technically a new runner. In the last 10 years I’ve run six half marathons and one full marathon. However, after every run that I’ve completed I’ve taken a long break from running. Like at least six months, and sometimes more than a year. So every time I start up again I feel […]

Wood Backsplash Ideas
A while back I saw a photo of a kitchen and was instantly smitten. Grey-blue paint, gold hardware, and best of all, a wood backsplash. I had never in my life considered it – despite years of working in and around the interior design industry and being exposed to a lot of different options. Wood […]

We’re Coveting: The Scott McGillivray Vanity
I never really intended for this blog to be associated with work. It’s more of a fun side project that I work on when the mood strikes. However, when you work in brand development for home and lifestyle celebrities, sometimes work and home collide in a most pleasant way. One of the projects I’ve been […]

Christmas Chalkboard Ideas
I have a floor to ceiling chalkboard in my kitchen, and I love it. I’ve only had it for about a month and a half but I’ve been thoroughly entertained by it. It’s a great little creative outlet, and including a calendar has definitely helped my household become more organized. Now if only we could […]

Is Toile Outdated?
There was a time in my life when I hated toile. I mean really hated it. A tea towel, a footstool, a pillow – even the smallest accessory was way too much. My parents had a bathroom done all in toile and I could barely stand to go in it. But recently something has changed. […]
