I know, I know I am going to stop making excuses about being busy, as you all can see from my lack of posts that I have been a lousy blogger! But to be honest business is doing well, and this takes up all my time...don't get me wrong, I couldn't be happier or more grateful!! I have a few craft fairs and markets that I will be at this summer as well, and I can't wait to share all the pictures and info with you guys. I hope some of you can even pass by, a lot of them are in the Toronto area, so all my fellow T. dot residents I am talking to you. I will update you all here about dates!! Very excited!!

Another thing that has been growing around here aside from business are my plants, my garden is really filling out...with blooms, and some weeds as well...oops! Time to de-weed, any tips? I still need to plant a few but overall I am truly enjoying all the pretty flowers. Enjoy the pics and your weekends, I will be off for a few days as I am celebrating my 26th birthday this weekend!!

Lather & Soak has these great new Anise Star round soaps scented with fig and bayrum! oh the sweet scent of the barber shop. I can always remember that signature bayrum smell whenever I'd see my grandfather. These would be great for Father's day :)


I'm off to visit family so enjoy your weekend! And Happy Father's day to all the great dad's!

My sis (Patti) for any new readers, recently decided to "re-do" the front yard landscaping, so here is just a small sneak peek at what we've done so far, more to come later, so stay tuned!

Has anyone ever heard of Abbott? they are a giftware and home decor wholesaler, I found them while searching the web one day and although I think you need to own a business to buy their stuff they do have a catalogue of really nice stuff. I have even sometimes seen their stuff at HomeSense! Here are a few of their things that caught my eye...

I have some DIY projects planned for the summer, and I have ordered some fabric from Tonic Living and I can't wait for them to arrive! Don't you all just love pretty fabric, it makes me giddy! Here are all the different yardages I ordered for separate projects...

Here are just a few of my fav's from Urban Outfitters:

If you know me you understand what a huge fan I am of Olivia Palermo's style and fashion sense ( check out my fashion blog Vida Moda to see what I mean). So it was no surprise that I also love her NYC apartment, check it out:
