What a fun weekend project! You can create DIY fall wreaths this weekend with the kids, a friend, or by yourself. One of my favourite ways to celebrate the everyday special occasion is to decorate seasonally. Seasonal decorating is easy, fun, and festive! I love to decorate seasonally with items found in nature, things I already have at home, and with things I've created myself. Aren't DIY projects a fun way to celebrate a new season?Hopefully, some of you will be creating fall wreaths this ...

Caregiving Services – Support for you, care for those who depend on you
This post brought to you by Elizz. The content and opinions expressed below are that of Being Tazim. She may not have known she'd end up a caregiver, but my mom always knew she wanted to be in the service of people who she cared about. When we lived in Texas, my mom owned and taught in a montessori school. She really cared about the children whom she was helping, really wanting to make sure they got a good education. Although she loved working with children, she had always dreamt of being a ...
How to Get the Glam Gold Décor Look in your Home
Hollywood glam has long been a popular theme, but I’ve been seeing gold more than usual this season in everything from fashion to makeup to home décor products. An all-out glam gold theme can look fabulous when it comes to makeup and clothing, but an all-gold interior? I have some recommendations for you to get the most from the glam gold trend below, with tips on adding just enough sparkle to not overwhelm the overall scheme. ...
I’m Feeling Inspired
Are changes in circumstances blessings in disguise? Well, they can be. Sometimes, I feel like too much of the same thing makes me feel uninspired, restless and like I'm not going anywhere. That's just how I felt all those years when I was in university. I just felt like I was never going to graduate! Things have been changing for me and my life more often than I have time to record, and while most of those changes can be seen as negative or stressful, they are also opportunities. I'm feeling ...
8 Creative & Inspiring Blogs that you Should Check Out
Blog Bosses share the love. Here are 8 blogs that inspire creativity. I'm taking a Blog Boss e-course through Decor8, and this week's homework was to share 8 blogs that rock (and why). I found it hard to narrow down the list. I wanted to share blogs that are not necessarily well-known. Oh, Hello Friend: You are Loved This is an oldie but a goodie. I've been reading this blog for years, though I somehow recently forgot about it. I love the general look of the blog and how well it integrates ...
Swedish Winter Decorating Ideas
Rather than the typical red and green decorations this time of year, I prefer the look of the more general winter look, with evergreen trees, moose, and everything else. Today is St. Lucia Day, which is celebrated in Sweden as the beginning of the Christmas season in Scandinavia, and it is meant to bring hope and light during the long winter days. Traditionally, it is celebrated with the eldest female child wearing white while serving baked goods and warm drinks to members of the family. ...
Glam Cabin Decor Look Ideas
Winter is coming, and so is the holiday season. I don't know about you, but I'm starting to fantasize about sitting by the fire and curling up with a good book, or having a few close friends over to enjoy a relaxing meal and conversation. Normally, the first things that would come to mind would be plaids, checkered prints, and red and green colours. Instead of the conventional cabin look, I've put together some ideas for a more glam cabin décor: ...

Holiday baking, and shiny new ornaments always make me feel warm and cozy. I love the pictures on the Crate and Barrel website of the holiday items being used. Do you have special holiday baking products? Do you buy new ornaments to add to your collection each year? ...
5 Ways to Add some Sunshine in to your Home
It's grey enough outside to get in to the 50 shades of grey trend for interiors for fall/winter. Though I do have pops of red in my apartment, the colour scheme is more-or-less neutral in tone. I'm a fan off bright colours like yellow. A super-sunny colour is sure to make you feel less gloomy this season and next. Here, in Vancouver, it has been very rainy for a few weeks now and there isn't sign of it stopping for several months. This extreme wetness is the norm here, but every year I am ...
