If 2020 taught us anything, we realize that we needed to stop saving things for the special occasions and instead realize that every day together as a family is a special day. From making mac & cheese out of beautiful @lagostinacanada Copper Pots, to a roast for supper on a week day from their Italian made copper roasting pan, this holiday, we are makings sure that even though there won’t be big family gatherings, our small family celebrates with things that bring us joy everyday. Right now @lagostinacanada is having EPIC Black Friday deals to make your everyday more special including more than 70% off our copper pot set. Head to my stories for links. (Ad)

It’s handkintted hats and mittens season and I’m here for it.
With the bathroom almost finished, our disarray of a home is slowly coming back to normal. Thanks to so many of you for following along our bathroom journey with us. Now who is ready for the reveal tomorrow? 🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️

Who else adds holiday decor to their bedroom? just me?

We are totally converted to linen bedding, from the timelessness and the fact that it lasts forever, to the breathability. AD: We finally got our hands on @brooklinen bedding as we wanted a darker set for the winter months and Oh EM GEE....it's the SOFTEST linen I have ever touched. Usually linen had to be 'warn in', but theirs comes that way 😍. Also, they are having an amazing Black Friday sale so head to my stories to find out more. #brooklinen #mybrooklinenstyle

From my feed you know I am not one to post Photos

From my feed you know I am not one to post Photos of the chaos of renovating. But this bathroom is the first time we have ever fully taken on a renovation, down to the studs on our own. We wanted to make it our dream bathroom And a place that we all are comfortable and happy in after a long day. That included making sure our tile would last through our busy life and five people using one bathroom multiple times a day. We put down @schlutersystemsna. Not only does it allow for your house and your flooring to shift without cracking your tiles but with Schluter DITRA-HEAT, you can also wake up to warm tiles. So here we go! DITRA-HEAT mats have been installed and it’s time to add the heating cables and get this tile down. *gifted

With two massive renovations to the home underway,

With two massive renovations to the home underway, this is so far the only room that remains clean. That obviously means it’s ok to go crazy and make every corner Christmasy. We are going to exchange the faux garland for homemade closer to Christmas, but for now, I’m loving this view. Now I’m going to read a magazine on our comfy @kavuus sofa (Everything is linked in my Christmas highlight)

She may not be lit yet but she is full of love. We have a tradition in my family that started with my grandmother, where we are gifted @amospewter yearly ornament in our stocking. It is some thing that we all look forward to each year And now I have enough to decorate an entire tree with these beautiful heirloom quality ornaments. I know there is a lot of talk about new traditions this year and I thought this might be the perfect one to add to your family traditions, shopping small and local. We even Have the perfect pewter tree topper from them as well. Head over to their page as they have 12 days of Christmas starting today with a ton of great deals for the holidays. #myamospewter *partner

I couldn’t help myself today adding holiday cheer. This view has been of our upstairs bathroom vanity for the last month and we finally have our laundry room back to normal again. You are going to see my feed slowly turned a Christmas over the next few weeks. Fair warning 😉😉❄️🎄🎅🏻🎅🏻🎁

Anyone else have a problem waiting to give their kids gifts? 🙋🏻‍♀️ We caved and surprised the kids with @amazon Kids+ 10” #kidstablet as a present for handling back to school, and well…2020 🙈. We love the educational games and books they come with for the first year with a Kids+ subscription. Also, with the protective case they are pretty much unbreakable unlike previous tablets we have had who have seen better days. That makes sending them with the kids to their Nana’s for the weekend a bit easier on the head, knowing they will survive. Right now, @amazon has $60 off the ’10 inch making them $199 for a perfect gift for the holidays. *ad

From this angle you can’t even tell our new toilet is behind the couch 🙈🙈#renolife keeping my mind on Christmas decor is helping me stay patient during all the renovations. As you guys know we absolutely love our new @kingofchristmas Noble Fir and seeing it with our @revival vintage rug that just arrived is making me in the spirit for all of the holiday decorating. You can use ‘Decoelis10’ to get 10% off your purchase at @revival. *gifted #kingofchristmas

Ad: My childhood trick-or-treating memories consis

Ad: My childhood trick-or-treating memories consisted of spending the night going from house to house but always stopping at my Nanny’s for her homemade caramel corn. This year we aren’t doing trick-or-treating so we thought we would bring in something special from my childhood with homemade caramel corn of my own with @orvillecanada kernels. It’s popcorn i can feel good about munching on and serving, perfect to enjoy with the whole family because it has no additives, just whole grain corn.

Ingredients:
10 cups Orville Redenbacher Original Popping Corn
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup corn syrup
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1/8 tsp cream of tartar
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking sofa
Directions: Preheat oven to 200°F. Put popcorn in a large bowl (I did it in 2 sections). Combine all of the ingredients for the caramel sauce besides the baking soda in a sauce pan over medium high heat. Whisk slowly but constantly for five minutes while at a boil. Remove from heat and quickly stir in the baking soda. Pour caramel over the bowl of popcorn and stir gently. Pour popcorn on to baking sheets and bake for one hour stirring every 20 minutes. Allow To cool on pan and enjoy.

Grab your Orville popcorn at any major grocery retailer nationwide. #OrvilleCanada @Orville50 #Legendarysince70 #Original Popcorn

One holiday almost over and the next just starting. I’m so excited to decorate for the holidays this year. What about you?

We are still so happy with our @kavuus Lucia sofa. It’s so comfy and is the perfect place to sit with a coffee hiding from the kids. But to be completely transparent, we chose the Ivory Lace fabric because we wanted a color choice to match any holiday decor from red hearts to green garland 🙈🙈🙈. Yup I’m that mom and wouldn’t have it any other way. 🍁🎃🦇
And, because we love our @kavuus so much, we are giving away $500 towards your purchase of a sofa or sectional.

To enter:

Giveaway will run for 48 hours. Good luck!

I have become that mom who makes home baked treats

I have become that mom who makes home baked treats for the kids to have when they get home from school. And, I’ll be honest, I LOVE IT! Emmitt is my little helper and it usually results in a super yummy special something. I also love a new cookbook and just started testing out the Bite Me Balance cookbook by the @bitememore sisters. We love that the recipes are 75% healthy and 25% butter. I am making the kids their Ultimate Chocolate Chip Cookies—they have corn flakes and rice crispies which make them so crunchy and delicious. Next up, the Kale and Brussel Sprout Salad, yum! *ad #heatherspick #bitemebalance

Our #ikeahack on the trofast toy bin is DONE!

The rain made this easy spruce up last a week because I couldn’t paint but i love how just adding legs and painting the wood made this look more like furniture. Now let’s see if the pretty storage drawers will make them keep their lego Cleaned up 🤨. Also made a highlight to show you what we did named ‘lego drawers’.

We’ve been quiet over here on the feed. There have been so many projects on hold, from the bathroom, to just getting things painted due to things totally out of my control. Guys, I’m a planner and like to have control, so these situations are not my favorite.

Anywho, this table each night with my family is what gets me through. My favorite.

Happy weekend!!

This space seems to be the one in the house that I just can’t settle on design wise. We plan on adding a wall of built-in wardrobes so maybe that’s holding me up, or maybe it’s the awkward long and skinny layout of this space. What is working is our @kavuus Vega chair that caught so many eyes in yesterday’s stories. It’s where I sneak off to for a moment of silence. Do any of you have that space in your house?

This corner is getting a bit of a spruce up on the next few days (nap time project). Any guesses what I’m going to do?
I think the new @blindstogo shades have inspired me to change a few things up. The kids won’t probably notice but I’ll be happy 😆!
