Plank a wall on a budget. Easy peasy. Sixty bucks. $60. One hour buying the ship lap. One afternoon with hubby and his saw. One evening painting while watching HGTV! And….done. Easy. Peasy. For real, this is a great way to add a bit of something-something to your space. You know I love a plank…
I love Fall. And October most especially! The colours are just so inspiring! It’s a wonderful time to be outside. I love nothing more than sitting on my perfectly imperfect messy big porch with a cup of tea and a book, usually wrapped in a blanket. I’m so fortunate that my house is surrounded by…

More specifically just outside in Blue Rocks – an extremely quaint and charming and super picturesque fishing village. It’s often reffered to as more beautiful than Peggy’s Cove and not touristy, unique and…
I’ll be honest. We started this quick and easy reno months ago. MONTHS ago. We pick away at things when we have time. It didn’t really take any time at all, but just to get to it seemed to take us a while. It’s how we roll. As many of you know we have been…
