The day that I hiked to the top of Montserrat was easily the most stunning, yet most terrifying day of my life. I’m here to tell you what I did wrong (and share some stunning photos) so that when you hike Montserrat in Spain, (and you really should) you won’t make the same dumb mistakes […]
Whenever I go on a trip, I always take way too many photos. In fact, when I looked back on a lot of my photos from my recent trip to Spain, a lot of the ones that I took on my SLR were also taken on my phone. Had to get it for the ‘gram. […]
I have never wanted summer so badly in my entire life! And I know I say that every year, but this year I REALLY mean it. I’m from Toronto, so we’re currently experiencing what feels like the longest winter in all of recorded history. As I type this, it’s STILL snowing. It’s mid April, so […]
When I first learnt to crochet all I wanted to do was make bikini tops. I couldn’t get over how easy they were to do! As I learnt more and more about how to modify the styles, I came up with a few of my own and fell in love with the results. Sadly, the […]
I’m going to go out on a limb here and make a very bold statement regarding cookies. Now, I know a lot of people think that white chocolate macadamia nut cookies are the best. But, I’m here today to tell you that there’s something better. That something better is these oh-so-soft & chewy white chocolate […]
Never has my skin been so luxuriously soft as it is right now. I’ve always been someone who exfoliates regularly, but this scrub takes it to a whole new level. The scrub I originally got was the green half circle shower scrub from Lush and I loved it so much that I was determined to […]
This blog may contain affiliate links. Never have I been so obsessed with a beauty product as I was with nail polish. Back in Grade 12 / university, I was VERY INTO my nail polish collection. I used to order discontinued ones from Ebay so that I could have certain colours. OPI was my polish of choice […]

DIY tutorial for painting, printing and hanging a large scale watercolour mural. Use it to pull together your bedroom as the focal point above the bed!
I’ve always been someone who loves burning candles. Fresh floral scents for spring? Yes please! Spicy comforting aromas in the fall? You bet. Anything that smells like baked goods? Yes. Always yes. So when my mom told me that burning candles is toxic and isn’t very good for the air, I was more than a little […]
I’ve been in my new apartment for almost 6 months now, and I’m pleased to say that it’s almost done! All the art is hung, along with my new favourite circle mirror, the bathroom has been refreshed, and I’ve finally finished the half hexagon crochet rug for my kitchen! I love crochet & knitting. I […]
In an effort to get rid of all the added chemicals that we encounter on a daily basis, I’ve been trying a lot of DIY beauty products. I’ve basically nixed all processed foods by always, (ok 90% of the time), cooking at home, so the next area that I wanted to tackle was my face […]
I’m the worst at eating breakfast. Or rather, I’m the worst at allotting time to eat actual breakfast in the morning. As hard as I try, I’ve always been the kind of person who is rushed in the morning. Thus, I always end up having to eat my breakfast on the go. When I worked […]
If the title of this post sounded incredibly boring, please bear with me – I swear it’s not! It’s actually incredibly cute and has lead to my bookshelf becoming much more visibly appealing. I decided to DIY dust jackets for my bookshelf and absolutely love the end result! When I moved into my bachelor apartment […]
This project was one of those amazing creative moments that just hits you like a load of bricks and you think “OMG, that’s such a good idea – how did I not think of this before?!” I love moments like this because they often yield amazing projects. I think being excited about a project ultimately […]
I’ve got a bit of a secret to share with you. My secret to growing succulents, that is. It’s nothing too juicy, but I think I’ve stumbled upon a very easy and pretty way to make my succulents and cacti grow super fast. I haven’t been able to prove my theory, but there have been […]
There is nothing I love more than a quick and easy DIY that you can complete in an afternoon. Now, imagine that the DIY you’re doing is going to yield a cute sleeveless shirt at the end. How amazing is that?! With my simple sleeveless shirt tutorial you’ll be able to quickly whip up an […]
I used to love getting temporary tattoos when I was a kid. Pretty sure I’m not alone in that. It was so much fun getting a whole pack of them and being able to pick which one you wanted. Bonus points if you got a cereal that came with a temporary tattoo. There was always […]
