    Take the 30-day Decluttering Challenge Now + Free Printable

    January 1, 2021 / No Comments

    Never have I ever needed a decluttering challenge more than I do right now. After months and months of pandemic life, spending more time at home and less leaving the house for school, work and life in general, the piles of clutter have become overwhelming. Holiday Clutter At this time of year, at Christmas, I also find myself frequently overwhelmed but the extra decorations and details that make the home festive but also visually cluttered. I feel like it’s impossible to do a minimalist Christmas. That’s okay, I think, but at the same time I live and work in my home and cannot really handle much more stuff. Why I…

    New Affordable Canadian Mattresses – Mirabed

    December 26, 2019 / 14 Comments

    We received product in exchange for honest consideration in this post about affordable Canadian mattresses. My youngest daughter has been asking for a room makeover for months. There never seemed to be time. But last summer when she went away to camp in Muskoka, we stripped everything off of the walls and painted the room three different colours. Of course, she helped picked the shades out. That gave her space a big boost of colour. And she was thrilled with the results when she came home. But, there was still the matter of the furniture and a mattress. Her bed, a loft bed, was way too small and she had…

    You might know grapefruit seed extract as a supplement, but did you also know it can be used for a homemade cleaner, or a fruit and vegetable wash? There are quite a few ways to use grapefruit seed extract that are simple and affordable too.

    Where to Find Luxury Sheets Without the Price

    January 21, 2019 / No Comments

    This is a sponsored post and I received product for consideration here. Luxury sheets are something that I rarely buy for myself. Honestly, have you seen the prices on some of the sheets out there? I can choose between buying wonderful, comfortable sheets or a week’s worth of groceries. I’m sorry, but with two teenagers in the house, groceries win out. New sheets are one of those items, like towels, that I just don’t shop for until we have to. That means I usually sleep on sheets that are good enough, but that aren’t exactly super cozy. That’s why I’m glad I found California Design Den. They have wonderful luxury…

    Emergency Preparedness – What’s in Your Emergency Kit?

    November 23, 2018 / 201 Comments

    This post is sponsored which means I received product or compensation. Emergency preparedness is something every family should give some thought to periodically. From severe thunderstorms in the spring to heavy snowstorms in the winter, we’re all at risk for emergency situations. To be honest I didn’t really ever worry much about being prepared for natural disasters or weather incidents until recently. The tornado we had in Ottawa this year really hit home for me. As I watched and worried about several good friends in the Ottawa region, I realized my family isn’t prepared enough for emergencies in general. That got me thinking about preparing an emergency kit and supplies…
