The reveal

Here it is everyone, the reveal of my new chair! I love how it turned out, I just have to figure out what to put next to it...for now I have this old wicker basket vase with some bamboo sticks placed until I figure out what I want to do.

p.s. check out the before picture here





sun rise



wait until you see what I have in store...

I have had this antique Queen Anne style chair for quite some time and I really didn't know what to do with it, so I painted it blue...and I really didn't like how it turned out, so instead of finishing it I left it half sprayed until the day I could be inspired to transform it.

Well my friends that day has come, stay tuned for the reveal...I will give you all a small sneak peek at the inspiration photo below for what I have in mind:

Living room updates

Just thought I would upload some of the most recent pictures of the living room, enjoy :)





Backyard updates

Well the siding is finally done for the shed. I am very pleased with how it turned out...now I have to look into solar light sconces ( these do exist right?) because my electrician is super busy. I also need to get a door knob and a window flower box and some shutters and then I will be officially done the shed...I swear!

But of course the deck is the next main project...it should be done in time to be enjoyed for next summer :)




room re-do

If I had my way and tons more $$$$$ I would love this for a room, check it out:

Kimberley Seldon

Every once and a while I like to feature great Canadian designers; a while back I covered the lovely Sarah Richardson and now I want to share with everyone (who hasn't already heard of her) Kimberley Seldon. I always see her on Cityline as one of the featured designers and she is also the decorating editor of Style at Home, and I just love her designs!

Here they are, take a look:

















Garden...further updates

I went today to get some stones and some mulch for the garden, and this is what it looks like at present... mind you this is only one half of the garden (the other side is still in progress). I have some daylight and night time pictures, with my new solar lights in place.

Oh and I almost forgot, while I was at Lowe's for all my garden supplies I also picked up 4 great fibreglass planters and the real kicker was the price, they were $59 original price and they got marked down to $14. You can see them by the shed in the daylight pics, although the colour isn't great, a little spray paint and maybe a potted fern and they will look like a million bucks!
