  • Country Chairs in an Urban Condo

    Country Chairs in an Urban Condo

    I love receiving text messages from friends that say: “I found antique chairs for you”. That’s exactly the text I received when my friend spotted these beauties disposed on someone’s curb, which to me, is basically a silver platter. I was planning on selling these chairs once I refurbished them, but I couldn’t help falling…

    Bridal Shower Gift Idea: Basket of Wine for Marriage Milestones

    If your friend is a big wine lover and you’re stuck on what to get her as a bridal shower gift, the search ends now. Why not make her a personalized wine basket for each of her marriage milestones? I made this wine basket for a good friend who recently got married and she absolutely…

    High Tea Bridal Shower

    When my best friend asked me to be her Maid of Honour, I was over the moon. I was touched that I’d be seeing my childhood friend get married, honoured that she had chosen me, and I was thrilled to be a part of her wedding planning process. It meant I’d be by her side for…

    A Pop of Colour on Outdated Chairs

    I picked up these chairs at a yard sale for $5.00 each. It was probably the most exciting furniture purchase I ever made till yet, not only because it was cheap, but because I looked past the horrible mustard velvet fabric and immediately knew what style I wanted to create. Deep purples, reds and black…

  • Friends Getaway at the Farm

    Friends Getaway at the Farm

    Nothing quite warms my heart into a state of pure coziness like a crisp autumn weekend spent at a farm. My boyfriend’s good friend celebrated his birthday at his family’s farm and it was exactly how November weekends should be spent; away from the grey city, technology unplugged, an abundance of food, drink, conversations, laughter, games and the coziest of…

    Summer Dates

    Seeing as the last day of Summer is in two days, I thought I would post a photographic recap of my best summer memories. Here’s to sandy beach hair, to sunsets kissing the water, to quiet waves swaying you into blissful relaxation, and to weekends spent in isolation under just a full moon and a campfire. City Sails   Sunday Beach…

  • Update On My Henna Haircare

    Update On My Henna Haircare

    A few posts ago, I shared my feedback and experience with LUSH’s Caca Rouge Henna. It was everything it promised to be and I was genuinely pleased with the results. As is the case with henna, because it is not permanent dye, the vibrancy of the red fades away with time and with every wash. Although…
