• Free Printables: Vintage Turkey Art

    3 November 2023 - By 

    Gobble Gobble! If you have seen my previous posts (Vintage Dog Art and Vintage Halloween Art), you know how much I love to decorate with prints for the holidays. Continuing on this trend, I have compiled artworks that are perfect to add a special touch to your Thanksgiving decor. Or if Thanksgiving has already come (like me in Canada), I think any of these would be great to decorate a kitchen area or as part of a curated gallery wall alongside various other animals. As always, these printables are free to download, so feel free to use them as you…

    You may know from my previous post on kids’ fall books that I love to collect seasonal children’s books and that I love to decorate our bookshelves for every holiday. Since spooky season is here, I wanted to share some of our Halloween books along with a little review of each in the hopes you may find your next favourite read.

    Not quite your grandma’s doily

    26 September 2023 - By 

    Doilies. I love doilies. Count me in as loving “grandma-chic” or “grandmillennial” style.

When I started crocheting a few years ago, I had no idea that making doilies would quickly become one of my favourite thing to craft. I especially love making seasonal ones for the holidays (I have so many Halloween ones…
