  • Did y’all catch my stories yesterday? I couldn’t have been more honored and excited to have had the opportunity to work with the incredibly talented lady behind @debs_greenhouse! Every year I fill our porch with the most gorgeous planters and baskets from her #greenhouse and every year I get tons of questions from neighbors, friends and local followers in the #Edmonton area about where I got them. Her floral designs are like no other and shopping her greenhouse is always a highlight of my spring! Yesterday we spent the morning designing and planting my own custom hanging baskets and planters for our porch (huge thanks to her daughter Paige for the design inspo!) and I couldn’t be happier with how they turned out! Swing by my Facebook page to catch a video of the entire process from start to finish and pick up a few design and planting tips for your own baskets while you’re there. And of course, if you’re local to the Edmonton area, you can pop into her beautiful greenhouse for help designing your own planters and baskets (find tons of design inspiration on her instagram feed!) or choose from an incredible selection of pre-made planters and baskets that you won’t find anywhere else! . . . #gardendesign #garden #gardening #gardeninginalberta #gardeninginedmonton #edmontongarden #edmontongreenhouse #yeg #yeghome #yeggardens #yeggarden #yeggardening #yeggardencentre #yeggreenhouse #greenhouses #greenhouselove #floraldesign #yegflowers
  • It’s been one of those days where the weather can’t seem to decide just what it wants to do - one minute the sun is streaming through the windows, filling each room with its warm glow, the next its all dark clouds and raindrops.

The perfect mix of sunshine and cozy for a day just like this! 🍋 You can find the recipe on the blog of you want to give these delicious lemon cake donuts a try too.

  • Today was our first day back to the routine of real life after three wonderful weeks off and I’m not going to lie, it kind of kicked my butt. Started my day by tripping over the dog first thing this morning and spilling my coffee all over the kitchen floor (I should have known better, her favourite place to lay is always right beside my feet). Then, after three weeks of sleeping in, Carson had such a hard time rolling out of bed this morning it was a mad dash to make it to school on time (and yet our entire walk to school was painfully slow of course). Finally, I feel like I busted my butt working all day long, yet somehow I accomplished nothing at all. At least I made it out of the house for a run tonight (even if I was 15 mins late). . I’ll tell ya friends, coming back from vacation is always a bit of a struggle for us. But that’s a-okay, there’s always tomorrow! . Hope y’all had a better start to your week! 😉 . . . #mondays #backfromvacation #cozyliving #houseandhomemag #springlivingroom #familyroom #shiplap #neutrallivingroom #piano #mudroom #whitecabinets #countrylivingmagazine #mondaymood #mondayvibes #ohmonday #yeg #yeghomes #thatsdarling#myhousebeautiful #farmhouse#farmhousestyle #ABMathome#BHGhome #pursuepretty #ABMcrafty#livethelittlethings #creativityfound #cdnblogsquad #showoffyourdecorstyle
  • Spending this sunny spring morning baking up a few of my favourite lemon treats for next week’s #cozyliving post. I know most people go for chocolate when they’re craving something sweet, but I’ve always had a thing for all things lemon. 🍋 Any other lemon lovers out there? . . . #lemon #lemons #lemon🍋 #lemondessert #lemonlover #lemonsweets #springbaking #lemonbaking #springkitchen #whitekitchen #whitekitchencabinets #butcherblock #butcherblockcountertop #kitchenrenovation #kitchenreno #mypotterybarn #houseandhomemag #countrylivingmagazine #bhghome #bhg #bhgflowers #springflowers #baking #yeg #yeghome #yeghomes #showoffyourdecorstyle
