How to Survive the Winter Months + Holiday Gift Ideas

Vegan Leather Jackets

Vegan Leather Jackets

The past couple winter seasons I’ve been partnering up with NOIZE who focus on creating faux fur and vegan leather pieces. This year I decided to go a bit out of my comfort zone and pick the Kim Vegan Leather Biker Jacket in yellow. This yellow vegan leather jacket is even better than I thought. I wasn’t so nervous about the jacket as the belt around the side can be removed to give the jacket a more causal look. Instead, I …

DIY Green Tea Matcha Balls

DIY Green Tea Matcha Balls Matcha offers a TON of health benefits which makes it the perfect ingredient to put into your snacks or even latte!

Taste of St. Thomas, Ontario Tour

Taste of St. Thomas, Ontario Tour

Taking the time to visit the local areas that are right in our backyards is so important. This is why I LOVE partnering up with Ontario Southwest. I feel like every time we have a vacation, we all instantly think of going somewhere tropical. Yes, I am guilty of this too. However, the best thing about visiting areas that are close to us is that it can be done within a single day or even a weekend. I headed to St. Thomas with&…

Exploring Ball’s Falls Conservation Area

Exploring Ball’s Falls Conservation Area

Ball’s Falls Conservation Area Located just outside Beamsville, Ontario you can find one of the best places to hike and sip wine. Two of my favourite things. Surrounded by some of the best wineries in Twenty Valley is Ball’s Falls Conservation Area. We started off our visit to the area with a stop at Calamus Estate Winery, which is located pretty close to the falls. The owners were super nice and allowed us to park in their lot as we went …

How to Hand Knit a Chunky Blanket

How to Hand Knit a Chunky Blanket

Last year I created a DIY Hand Knitted Scarf so this year I wanted to show you guys how to hand knit a chunky blanket! There is no pattern or needles required. All you need is 7-8 balls of yarn and your hands. I picked up this yarn at my local craft store and it’s perfect for this DIY. Most of the chunky blankets that I’ve seen in the past use wool and I personally find them so itchy and they …
