I missed Thanksgiving this year because I was in Europe (not complaining!) so I decided to fully commit to decorating for Halloween this year and leave the gords and fall colours behind.Continue reading “Seasonal: Playful Halloween Decor”
Get the Look: Fresh, Contemporary & Green
When it comes to decor we all have our own style and preferences. When we were preparing for this Get the Look post I (Jessica) sent a few different photos of rooms to Elysia but told her I liked this one the best… her reaction? “Of course you do!” She knows me and my style allContinue reading “Get the Look: Fresh, Contemporary & Green”
DIY: Mini Flower Wall
This past weekend was a special one – Jack, my perfect nephew and Elysia’s perfect son, got baptized! We all went back to Elysia’s afterwards to celebrate, and like any party, you need decor!

DIY: No-Maintenince Green Wall
Right now I am obsessed with greenery. I have to have it in my home in as many forms as possible before I start to become “that crazy plant lady”. I found inspiration for my wall from The Modern Honolulu where I will be staying in September – as soon as I saw it IContinue reading “DIY: No-Maintenince Green Wall”
Design: Tropical Bedroom Makeover
Let’s take a moment to talk about fads. They’re not necessarily a bad thing… sure, they’re not the “safe” way to redecorate, but you just have to be prepared to change up your decor when the ‘fad goes bad’. For me I love hopping on the ‘trend wagon’ because it allows me to explore newContinue reading “Design: Tropical Bedroom Makeover”
DIY: Wallpaper
Wallpaper is THE best way to transform a space, and guess what – it’s not permanent! Sure, it can get expensive (depending on how big your wall is and what kind of wallpaper you get), but it’s the ‘wow factor’ you’re paying for that paint often times can’t give you.
