a baby shower

Remember that paint chip mobile I made the other day for two of my most favourite friends and their little guy on the way? Well, a few weekends ago we threw a baby shower for those same friends. And since I was part of the "planning committee", you can be sure it was full of DIY decorations and games. First up: decorations. I re-used some of the tissue flowers from another event (see those ... View the Post

review: Comfort Works karlstad slipcover

I love lots of things about IKEA. The affordable furniture. The sleek designs. And with their upholstered pieces, the ability to remove the covers to wash them or change them up. Last fall we got a new-to-us Karlstad sofa (you can check that out here). It was in great shape, but I never really loved the dark gray cover.

First up was this super cute idea to display all of Stella's pretty summer dresses. Alexandra (my crafty sister-in-law) had found a big ... View the Post

BlogPodium Recap

BlogPodium. The event that is quickly becoming one of my favourite things to look forward to!! The first one, held back in January (which I wrote about here), was so much fun that I was seriously excited for round two. Well I can tell you, it did not disappoint. A room full of sweet bloggers, some high profile speakers, lots of brand representatives, and so much useful information... it was ... View the Post

project bathroom: the reveal

So after proclaiming that the time had come to do something about our dated and dull bathroom on March 26th, we have done a complete overhaul of this small-but-important room in our pad. One month, a lot of elbow grease, a few dolla dolla bills, and we can (almost) call this one officially done-zo. The *almost* refers to still having to install the overhead fan and put in the floor transition ... View the Post
