Stella and Dot Spring Style


I am loving the new Stella and Dot spring styles. My favorite necklace has to be the ELODIE. Loving the colors...great for spring!

The AMELIE bracelet with glass crystals sparkle with your choice of peach, gold or silver. Hard to chose, but I think I love the peach for spring.


Hard to pick my favorite spring 2014 Stella and Dot earrings, so here are a couple I'm loving.

New Years Eve Sparkle

Here are some ideas to add a little sparkle into your wardrobe on New Year's Eve.  I just love how there are so many options for the ladies living in Canada now! The dresses are from Nordstrom.

So pretty and simple. Love the heels too!

Cabinet Hardware


As soon as we saw the Gilmore knobs and pulls from Restoration Hardware, we knew they were the ones. I'm so happy with how the new cabinets have turned out!
We decided not to replace the backsplash, so we painted it. It turned out really good. I'll be posting before and after pictures of the kitchen soon:)

Kitchens I Heart


I am in love with Pinterest right now, and wish it was around when we bought our current home about 10 years ago. I am really drawn to greys and whites these days. We are almost done with our cabinet redo from ginger maple cabinets to white. My husband is in the renovation business, so I am a very lucky lady!  Here are some of my favourite kitchen inspirations.



I love the glass and the smaller cabinets over the larger ones

I love the large window, the upper cabinets and the pendants

Love the pendants, backsplash and countertop.

If I could redo my backsplash, this would be it! The grey/white mix would go perfectly

I LOVE this look of the white kitchen dishes against the dark grey background!
