I Like Change?

Every year or so I like to hang from the ceiling and take a picture.
C’mon, I know you do it too.
I think I have mangled my body into every possible position just to take a picture, that’s normal right?
Here is what my little adode looked like 18 months ago…
Ahhh!
And now…

Much better.
The drapery and dark fireplace make me cringe.
I still have a million projects planned. 
I can’t wait to see how it changes in the next year.
First up, my faux bamboo chairs. 
Finally.

Happy Canadian Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving to all my Canadian friends and family.
I must admit, I am feeling a little homesick.
There is nothing worse than missing out on holidays with the family.
Yesterday I had some friends over to celebrate Canadian Thanksgiving.
It was a last minute decision so I quickly put together a feast!
I also placed some Canadian words in the middle of the table. 
My American friends had a blast trying to guess the meanings of the words.
It was fun.
Luckily, I am heading back to the Great White North next week to meet my newest neice.
I can’t wait 🙂

Online Design: Pre-Teen Girls Bedroom

So you don’t have to stare at my ugly pumpkins all weekend, I thought I would share with you an online design I recently completed.
This design was for the winner of my Online Design Giveaway.
We were working on a bedroom for her 10 and 12 year old girls.
She gave me complete control.
It.was.so.much.fun.
I kept the design bright and girly.
I think I might move in.
I am drooling over the desk chair.
I want one for my office…
Since completing the design we have already made a few minor changes.
Instead of wallpapering the nook, my client is going to tackle a DIY painting project.
It is going to look a little like this…
But in this dreamy coral color.
We are also decided to swap out the ziggy chair for this hanging bubble chair.
Love it.

I think I want to be 12 again.
