What I'm Liking Today!

I was checking out Canadian House and Home this morning, and found some images that I'm loving at the moment.

Who can resist brick walls?? Really, who?

I love kitchens that can fit a dining table right in the center of it all.

Those damn beams, they get me every time. Love how the headboard is framed out of rustic beam too!

Love the simplicity of this table.

These baskets are a yes!


and, I want this table just because.

Happy drooling. XO

New Year, New Me!

Well hello friends. It's been a while hasn't it. I had every intention of blogging on the 1st day of January, but obviously that didn't work out too well. So here I am a little more than a week late, but nonetheless I'm here.


For the return of Make It Monday I decided to post on baby projects because as you know I am expecting a little one in three short months. My mom and I will putting together the room in the coming weeks- before and after photos to follow.


Here are a few sewing projects I will be sure to make as soon as I find the perfect fabric.

Love this Amy Butler baby bag pattern.

and this hooded towel. Plus her fabric is just too cute.

I have an old dresser that is currently being redone and will perfectly fit this changing station.

and when I'm on the go I'm sure to not leave home without one of these changing pads.

and finally I've heard babies love a snuggler.

Well, I will be hunting for fabric this week and then the sewing craze will begin.

Wishing you a wonderful day.

Oooohs and Ahhhhhs!

Here a few images that are inspiring my holiday decorating. I love pine cones- they are so versatile. This year I glittered a few for the tree- they turned out so pretty, pretty! Now I'm working on my table decor! I think I'm a little behind- but enjoying the process nonetheless! How is your decorating coming?

Have a wonderful day- and stay warm! It is -6 at my casa this morning! Brrrr!

Food Friday (ok, so it's technically drink Friday)!

I know Friday's are usually reserved for food... but I thought I would be a little crazy and blog about booze instead! Since I can't actually enjoy drinking alcohol I figure you my friends might enjoy a beverage on my behalf. Being that it is the holiday season I feel it necessary to provide a few recipes for mulled wine- yum!yum! Now remember think of me when consuming!

New House Beautiful!

Have you seen the new issue of House Beautiful??? I was at my local Barnes and Noble and came across it the other day. I must say I am in love with all of it, but in particular the rustic cottage that belongs to Jill Brinson. In case you don't get the mag, here are some pics for you to enjoy!

Not too shabby of a pad ehh?? I think I could live there just fine.
