 We are backyard people. We LOVE our outdoor space, and soak it up any chance we get! We needed a table that could host more people, but still left movement for play. Cannot wait to share great food and even better wine around this table!

 IT’S CHRISTMAS TIME! And there is nothing I love more than cozy holiday decorations. Our now family of 4 (5 counting the dog) needed a few more stocking to hang by the fireplace with care. I found some GREAT fabrics – with stockings I think the more textures the better! Details below.
Skill level: Beginner  I have said this before, but I will say it again, I love French design. I especially love the opulence of French Provincial furniture. So when I found this piece second hand I had to have it! All it needed was a little love and a new life. Here is the before and after:  Skill Level: beginner to Intermediate  Made from mostly reused materials  This is a super easy project, great for a beginner sewer. The rounded edges give the blanket a more finished look - simple details can really make a difference! Skill level: Beginner  Partly made from 100% organic cotton  I made this fun VW pillow to go with baby #2's "adventure" themed nursery. It's great for babies - soft with lots of textures and features to look it. It could also be done in so many colours or patterns.
Skill Level: Intermediate sewer  For Baby 2 I'm switching up the nursery to be "adventure and travel" themed. I love all things vintage, so this cushion was a cute idea for something fun and cozy!
Skill Level: Intermediate  I inherited this vintage sewing table from my Grandmother, and we have had it on display it in our home for a few years. My Grandma was a woman ahead of her time. She had a quick-wit, a feisty attitude (understatement) and an unstoppable optimism. So in honour of her, I thought I would give it an update. I think she’d be happy with how it turned out!
Skill Level: Beginner  Full disclosure, by no means am I a quitter, so I am sure there are better techniques out there. This is my first go at, but I am pretty happy with the results and so is E. Skill level: Beginner to Intermediate
 Our little guy is getting bigger and more independent, which means strapping him into a highchair is getting challenging. We wanted to get him a kids table, but they start at $100 – and that’s just for the table! So, we decided to build one. It cost us under $50 for all the materials and what’s even better, it looks great!
Skill Level: Beginner to Intermediate  Our little one loves to stand in his crib, often when he should be sleeping, and while he is standing he gnaws on the rail. So, to protect his teeth, and let’s be honest the not-so-inexpensive-crib, I made a simple crib rail bumper.
