Decorating a home is a process. It starts as a big picture – what style you want the home to reflect, what vibe you want it to project – and ends with the little details. Once you’ve picked colour schemes and purposes for each room it’s time to add the extra touches that give each room that certain je ne sais quoi. If you’re looking for a special piece to tie your whole room together, give it a punch of colour, or inject some extra personality into the design, why not consider an area rug? Here are some rooms and rugs to give you inspiration!
It’s been a busy summer for us! While you were (hopefully) spending some much-deserved time on the beach and enjoying the beautiful summer that we had, we were busy working away on our active projects. From Aurora Trails to CityTowns, there’s been a lot of progress made throughout the summer and we’re so excited to share that with you.
While we hate to see summer go, we can’t help but get excited to welcome fall into our lives with open arms. With the first cool breeze of autumn we’re reminded of all the wonderful sweaters we’ve been wanting to wear, all the pumpkin spice lattes we want to drink, and all the cozy soup we want to eat. Fall is the perfect time to get outside and explore – it’s not too hot, not too cold, and the leaves are changing colour, so every outdoor excursion becomes a great photo opportunity. Our favourite fall activity has to be apple picking – for the fun outdoors, but also for the tasty pies that follow. Here are some of the best places to pick your own apples in the GTA.
The process of getting a new home is quite thrilling. You’ve spent considerable time searching for the perfect place to live, and once you find it it’s hard to contain your excitement. You start daydreaming about how you’ll decorate, the dinner parties you’ll throw there, and the memories you’ll make. But there’s one last hurdle you must jump over before you’re actually living in this dream home – moving day. Some people dread moving day more than a trip to the dentist, but we’ve got 5 tips to make moving day a breeze.
It’s easy to live somewhere without really getting to know it. Sure, you know your way around and your favourite places, but it’s not often that we sit down and actually delve into the history of where we live. This is especially common when you’ve lived somewhere your whole life, but if you’re moving to a new place or starting a family somewhere, doing a little research is a great way to get to know your new home. If Brampton is where you call home, then you’re sure to realize what a special city it is, but you may not know how it came to be Canada’s 2nd fastest growing city! We’ll help get you started.
Your spring was spent getting your yard into shape for summer.

The crowning feature of any backyard of those who love to entertain is the perfect patio set. Here are some we’re obsessed with to give you some inspiration!
