What better way to celebrate Canada Day, then with some patriotic shoes. With that said, this week’s DIY is DIY Canada Day Shoes. I have done Canada Day DIYs in the past, like shorts (Click here for the DIY Canada Day Shorts) but this year I wanted to do something a little different. Using a Pet Bandana I picked up as fabric from my local dollar store, these shoes were simple to make. Not only that but to also cover my horrible first…

The best part of summer is sitting outside on your patio but you also want your patio to look cute! Am I right? I’m a big fan of keeping herbs around during the warmer months as they provide such a nice smell. Plus, they come in super handy when cooking. I purchased these plain pots at the dollar store and used some acrylic paint to transform them. My first idea was obviously to create fruit inspired pots, hence the pineapple and watermelon. Since…

Jeans: American Eagle | Top & Watch: Avon | Shoes: Nine West Not sure why I asked that question in the title because I love ripped jeans and will continue to wear them no matter what. Well, actually I do, I had no idea what to call the post and that’s the first thing that popped into my head. I think they are still fashionable even though ever time I wear them I get at least one person saying “Why are you paying…

Are you ready for the summer? I sure am! Since buying a boat late last summer, I’ve been itching for the summer to come back to take full advantage of the warm weather. With summer, comes pool floaties! There are so many cute ones out there, but they can be expensive. These items might be more trend based so why spend all the money on one when you can create this DIY? Also, DIYs are more fun because you can brag when people…

When I first started this blog, I never thought that it would have lead me to the amazing opportunities I receive. But, most importantly introduced me to some other amazing and inspiring Girl Bosses. Last week I was presented with an opportunity that I NEVER thought would have happened. I was asked to feature one of my DIY Projects on The Marilyn Dennis Show! While I was super scared as it was my first time doing a TV performance, I was also losing my mind in excitement.…

The kitchen has to be one of my favourite places in my house. It’s where everyone gathers when they come over, drinks are made and of course, where all the food is. I fell in love with this house because of the brick wall that you see in the photos but what I did not like was all the basic builder items that were still in the home. Since we are the 2nd owners, we never got the chance to pick out any of…

Well, it’s no surprise that I am a huge sucker for a dollar store DIY. Lately, I’ve seen rope baskets all over for either storage or just decor items in homes. After seeing them at the $20+ range, I knew I could find a more affordable way to create a rope basket. I ended up using a white rope that I found at the dollar store for this project. However, I think using a brown rope would create a very rustic and cute look too!…
