homes for the holidays | michelle peek photography


This year I participated in a Charity Home Tour called Homes For The Holidays, with proceeds going to the The Markham Stouffville Hospital Foundation and Varley-McKay Art Foundation of Markham and .

The fundraiser invites designers to decorate a home for Christmas, which people can then come and tour for inspiration to decorate their own homes.

I loved getting in to the festive spirit and filling this home with natural inspired elements. Some of my favourite pieces were the personalized linen calligraphy napkins and large calligraphy poster board that I commissioned the talented Lisa from Post Calligraphy. We also had adorable prints from SS Print shop scattered all over the house.

The tour also gave me a chance to connect with an old friend, now talented photographer Michelle Peek, who came and snapped up some beautiful shots for me.

countdown to christmas | 5ive 5ifteen photography


December 1st! Christmas is coming... 24 days to be exact.

And 5ive 5ifteen Photography stopped by this week for a visit and they captured some of our festive wares (thanks for coming and for the donuts gentlemen!)

I LOVE this season. And love when we get to deck the shop out in holiday decor. This year we especially love the mini myrtle topiary, our various cloches, vintage inspired antlers, and the adorable SS PRINT SHOP prints.

Come by and visit us to see some of our other fun holiday decor and gift ideas. But be warned... we may be playing Christmas tunes.
