Merry Christmas! Wishing you all a peaceful holida

Merry Christmas! Wishing you all a peaceful holiday season with your loved ones. haven’t been posting as much but I need to give all of you an update on our living room in the new year. Tiffany and her team @tiffanyleighdesign have been helping me transform this space! I have a few things left to do and then I will post a full reveal.

On the blog today I’m sharing how I framed these prints! I am all about inexpensive art so I decided to take it to the next level and customize affordable IKEA frames with a mat cutter! #ikeahack #sweetmaplehome

I find myself thinking about our next vacation... I have no idea when that will happen! I would love to back to Nova Scotia or PEI. I am going to start saving for a trip to Hawaii in a few years. 🌴🌴🌴 Where are you going to go? ✈️ #explorenovascotia #sweetmapletravel

I finally left the house to pick some things up for our home. The first thing on my list was faux branches... I found these @homesensecanada and I’m pretty happy with my purchase! 4 x $5.99 is very reasonable. 🌿 Also, I need some help! Swipe left to see the new mark I found on our table, what should I do? Can this be fixed? #myhomesense

Who doesn’t love a good DIY IKEA hack? Tiffany from @tiffanyleighdesign shared one for her bedroom nightstands. I wanted to share this picture of my friend’s front entry because she used her tutorial and it turned out beautifully! She said it was easy to follow and loves the final result. Tiffany has this tutorial saved in her reels. #diyprojects #frontentry #ikeahack #diyikeahack

Cottage update! Last fall I posted that we are off

Cottage update! Last fall I posted that we are officially looking for a cottage... well, apparently we aren’t the only ones! One cottage recently sold for $200k over asking and there were 20 offers!! 😟 There isn’t much on the market right now but we know that will change in a few months. In the meantime, I will keep working on my Pinterest board! You can find it under @ sweetmapleblog .

My plan this year is to show you more of our home and how we have been renovating it! This is our laundry room, swipe left to see some pictures of how this space looked before. This space is in the addition to our house that was added by the original owners. I painted the wood panelling in 2009. In 2013 we closed the wall to renovate the main floor. I added a 2nd kitchen area but it didn’t get used as much once we built our deck so it was not a useful space anymore. In 2018 we started working with Tiffany Leigh Design on our basement which included moving the laundry room up one level. We are so happy with this space now and how functional it is! 🧺

👋🏻 I just realized we cut down our Christmas tree one month ago! Anyone else wondering where the last month went?! I thought all my Christmas presents would be wrapped by the end of November but I still have many gifts in bags/boxes! #christmastreefarm #christmas2020

Exciting news! After years of discussion, we have officially started looking into purchasing a cottage. 👏🏻 The goal is to find a fixer upper and transform it so we can start renting it out! The market is a little quiet right now so let me know if you know of any cottages going on the market in the Muskoka area! 😘 Loving this look by @studiomcgee for our future cottage. 📷: @lucycall #muskokalakes #cottagestyle #cottagelife #kitchendesign #smmakelifebeautiful #muskokarealestate

This lovely area is a bonus space in our home! Originally it was a crawl space under an addition the previous owners built. A few years ago we dug it out to make it usable... then with Tiffany’s help, she designed what you see now! We use this room often so it was worth all of that work. There are many toys hidden in the baskets and the bowl! She knows our family well! Swipe to see the before picture! #sweetmaplehome Design: @tiffanyleighdesign

Happy Friday! I’m sharing some of favourite items in my new office. See that picture? It’s from my parents wedding day! ❤️ I always have something in each room that reminds me of the past. I also have my half marathon medals in that box, reminds me of the days when I had a lot of energy. 😆 #sweetmaplehome

I am so inspired by @tominteriordesign ‘s portfolio... you have to check out their recent projects. One of my favourites is the lake house!

We just got back from renting a cottage in the Port Carling area! This is one of the many boathouses I was admiring while we were on Lake Rosseau and Lake Joseph. 🚤 #cottageliving #lakerosseauboathouses #muskokaboathouse #exploreontario #cottagelife

A few of you were asking who was in my stories the other day... meet Charlotte! 🐾 This picture was taken the day we brought her home! She is so sweet and the perfect addition to our family. Puppies are a lot of work though! 😳 #goldenretrieverpuppy #goldenretriever #goldenretrieversofinstagram
