Weekend Muse

Last week we spent up at our family cottage, and the first week back home always takes a bit to get back into things. I’m not sure if it’s because I’m playing catchup, or if I’m just stuck in holiday mode!

We had a meeting with clients for an upcoming remodel to finalize some of the revisions. This project will be such a classic and timeless design with really beautiful details that I can’t wait to share with you guys!

We are also getting ready for an install at our Toronto remodel. We started this project back in January, and ordered all the products at the begining of July. Packages are arriving almost daily and we are all on a design high in the studio. I keep saying to Steve that seeing a design that we have spent so much time on come together, is truly one of the most exiting parts of this job. We feel so honoured to have such great clients that trust us with our vision in making their house a dream home!

About 5 years ago I had the idea of starting a little online decor shop. I had even picked out a name and designed a logo. I was running my little interior design business at the time, and decided it would be too much for me to tackle both new companies, so I dropped the idea but always kept it in the back of my mind. Back in the spring, Steve and I started talking about starting a pillow line. We made up some designs but I felt like I was trying too hard to be something I wasn’t, so we didn’t go through with it. However, over the summer I kept thinking about it and came up with 4 patterns that I can’t wait to share with you guys! They are the perfect patterns to take your home into fall and winter! We’ve recieved the first batch of fabric samples this past week, and after a couple tweaks the pillows will be available through our website.

And lastly, here’s all the beautiful images that I’ve been inspired by over the week! Enjoy your weekend!
