Master Bathroom Makeover

Hi There! This is what I’ve been doing during the COVID-19 quarantine; painting my three bathrooms! Intended to just ‘freshen up everything, and yet, the master bathroom required more work! We were dealing with an oversized mirror that ‘mirrored’ the sink(s), counter clutter and even a full view of someone on the toilet! Oh MY! Check out the results of scaling-down the mirror, fresh paint on walls and covering oak trim, new lighting and more! A bathroom is a place…

WALLS Can TALK Calm and Timeless

WALLS can TALK: Looking for a change? A pick-me-up perhaps? Seeing the same-same stuff in your home can become dull and uninspiring. Seasons change and so do our interests and motivations. Let’s have a look at some of the cryptic messages we send ourselves with pictures and things you hang on the walls. IMAGE 1: Japanese Red Crested Cranes This first one is a Chinese Scroll with an image of two Red-Capped Cranes. Size: 12”w X 36” This image is…

What’s on Your Walls?

Art is so personal. I found this great print in a decorating warehouse here in BC, already framed and ready to go! I identified with this immediately so, I pulled out my credit card! What is it about choosing images and art that seems so difficult? When someone finally finds a great piece to jump into…they often don’t! Are you afraid of upsetting the balance of complacency in the home? As the darker days descend upon us, our focus turns…

Style Your Home – Mud Room

Something’s not working? As with many routines in life, we need to shift our habits with the seasons. In our case, the back door entry was also the spot to park the washer and dryer. A little tight on most days, but bringing in two, large, muddy dogs to dry off… well? This first picture was taken after we stripped the cupboards and took out a large laundry sink and shelves. We had more room for the pups to turn…

Etiquette for Zoom, Skype and the Like

Video conferencing is high on the list of staying sane! Apparently Face-time, Zoom and skype usage is UP 2000% in the last month! WOW! Once served for the sole purpose of inter-department conference calls, we now rely on this for distance learning, visiting relatives and there’s’ so much more going on! One of the reasons I wrote about this subject, it was prompted by a situation last week: a guy fresh out of the shower, signed into a webinar, and…

A Simple Walk of ABC

If you could read my mind: A Simple Game of ABC The lyrics to a popular song lead to wonder, mystique and perhaps misconception about what’s going on inside ourselves. Our ‘enforced relaxation’ away from regular routines and community friends has lead many of us to ponder our existence, and wonder what is coming next! If you could read my mind, love, what a tale my thoughts would tell… Are you unsettled these days? Thoughts wondering and wandering throughout the…

Stressful issues and anxiety, can blow things out of proportion and lead to non-productivity.

Money Talks, or does it?

  Remember when you used to ‘cash’ a paycheck? Do you remember feeling pride and importance of having a job? Then, a chore to line up at the bank on Fridays – to turn a paper cheque into cash. Our banking and spending habits have changed over the years; so how are you handling this? With the ‘new wave’ of APPS and clicks, auto-deposit, tap for payment, I’m sure there are many people out there who can’t remember when they…

Style Your Bedroom

  Getting tired of your bedroom? Ready for a SPRING REVIVAL? Here’s one great idea to change things up!   This master bedroom, thou clean, crisp and cozy wasn’t quite working for the couple. I like the symmetry here, and feng shui is all about symmetry!   Rule of thumb is to have both parties space to be ‘equal’; they both need to get in and out of the bed (without crawling over each other). And add, two pillows, two…
