Home, Furniture & Kitchen

When I was a kid, almost every vacation involved driving for 24 hours from Saskatchewan to central British Columbia. We came for the scenery – mountains, icy blue lakes, and Bedrock City in Kelowna (why they would close that place I’ll never know). We also came for a few other reasons, namely salmon, blackberries, and peaches. Oh and throw a few apples in there and you’ve got a nice pile of souvenirs for people from the prairies.

The Tiny Home movement has been building up for a few years now. When I first heard of tiny homes I immediately downloaded the catalog and was in love with the simple, small designs. It might not be do-able if you have 4 kids (and all of their stuff) under your roof, but these cute, quirky homes are perfect for a single person, small family, or seniors who want to live independently.

I’d love to have 10 sets of sheets in varying colours and thread counts, but space wise, it’s not realistic. That’s why when it comes to bedding, most people really only need 3 sets of sheets per bed in your house. Need some recommendations for your three bedding sets? Here are my picks. 

Spring cleaning in 5 easy steps? It really can be that simple. Here are easy spring cleaning tips you can use to get your whole home clean.

I learned a few years ago that fancy corkscrews exist. But until I tried out these Peugeot corkscrews, I had no idea that they could actually be cool. 

Along with the leaves falling from the trees, Halloween, and a return to jacket and socks weather, fall brings with it a whole set of needs for your baby and toddler. From stroller and car seat covers, to sleep sacks and clothing, here's some new gear for baby this fall.

When you want to look your best, rocking wrinkled clothes probably isn’t the best idea. However, ironing is a pain and dry cleaning can put quite a dent in the pocketbook over time. That’s why a laundry steamer is a great tool to add to your arsenal of small appliances.

Summer is, without a doubt, my favourite time of year. In fact, I’m such a summer girl that I’ve often wondered why I haven’t moved myself to a more temperate climate where the hot days and warm nights stick around for longer than a few months. But perhaps it’s precisely the short shelf life we have on summers here in Canada that makes me itch to spend as much of them outside as possible.

Just because you’re a grown up doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy summer like kids do. Here are a few kid-friendly recipes you can make as a meal for the entire family.
