I got a little creative recently and went into my bin of left over fabrics that I have been collecting forever. I challenged my self to make a new pillow each for our living room and family room with remnants. Here in the living room. At the suggestion of my daughter Sydney, I toned down the colours for spring. I added this cream pillow cover which I made, and added two stripes of applied fabric from previous projects. This spring transition is also enhanced by this gorgeous addition from @article. I am really liking this toned down palette as it seems to make room for the lively conversations that take place on these couches jokingly “called the ten thou.” Our quarantined family gathers here several times a week for chats. ⁣

This picture was taken early on morning when my hubby dragged the girls out of bed to help him lift drywall up to the ceiling of the shower. I am sure they were wondering at this point if coming home during this pandemic was a good idea. Luckily we brought in a reinforcement to help rebuild the family bathroom in week four of the @oneroomchallenge. Be sure to check out the blog as we start putting the bathroom back together.

It finally arrived. After Lola chewed a hole in our rug in January, I ordered a new rug. Following many unsuccessful phone calls and email queries, I feared that the rug was lost, backordered, I don’t know, in quarantine. I gave up on the rug I ordered and started looking for something different. ⁣
⁣
⁣
When this arrived on our door step last week, it was not how I remembered it. It is more bold and also bigger. I was not confident that this rug was staying, but as it turns out, I love it. The light base brings brightness to the room and the pattern is so big that it doesn’t read as busy. And it is size makes the room feel bigger. I am so pleased. It was worth the wait. ⁣

Since I have bathrooms on the brain, and its transformation Tuesday, I thought I would share one of my favourite transformations ever. The photos are good quality as I lost my hard drive at one point, but this one was a beauty. This was the master bath in our previous house and we were living with plywood on the floor for several years after we tore up the pink carpet and were waiting to renovate. I miss those heated floors and the steam shower.

For the next few weeks, as part of my Sunday share, I am going to share some of the featured designers that were chosen to participate in the @oneroomchallenge. ⁣
⁣
⁣
The images on the feed of @katepearcevintage grabbed me right away. I live with a light palette home, but I am so drawn to homes where bright colours are in use. As you can see by this colourful bookcase Kate is not shy on colour or style. Yowza. She is adding dormers to her New York home attic and making a guest room, bath room and office space. Go visit @katepearcevintage. ⁣

As I mentioned in my blog earlier this week, it was all about dust and mess so nothing pretty to share. So I thought I would give you this instead. Things are starting to green up around here and look at lot more like spring. I will be hanging out here with my four chosen home shelter mates. The blog is linked in my bio. Go check it out if you get the chance. ⁣

I was a little overzealous when I moved my Boston fern out to the screened-in porch, as I found it with many blackened leaves from frost bite. I brought it back in the house and cut it back, and gave it some TLC. So here she is in the porch again for another try. Surely from now on there will be no frost. I feel like I have a relationship with this plant since I have kept her alive since last summer, I am not ready for it to end now.⁣
