I am so excited about today!!! Want to know why? Because I get to be the guest host for this week’s Thrift Score Thursday, and if you don’t know what that is, you’re about to fall in love! So what does this mean? Well it means I get to share with you my bestest #ThriftScoreThursday…
Hiya! How did you guys like the Leon’s Furniture living room makeover? Isn’t that sectional to die for? And the cocktail table – oh my! Well you may have noticed in that post that I mentioned a little DIY footstool project, or maybe you just saw it in the Masculine Chic look. Either way, I…
Ladies and the two gentlemen that may or may not read my blog, I am finally bringing you a post dedicated to how I made over two dressers using Chalk Paint ® for our master bedroom this year! You’ve seen the dressers, right? Because by this point, you’ve seen the master bedroom makeover like 100 times…
Ladies, this one’s for you because if you’re anything like me, you struggle with jewelry organization sometimes. Ok, for me, that’s all the time! I swear, Alex must go nuts with all my necklaces and earrings lying around. Not to mention hair ties, oh and have I said bobby pins yet? Ok include those in…
I love shiny things, don’t you? Duh, who doesn’t, right? Well I have a slew of shiny for you today, my friends. This week I got busy looking for shiny, though I didn’t actually mean to. I just thought I’d hit up some of my favourite thrift shops, and I happened to get quite lucky!…
I never shared with you guys what Alex and I got one another for our first wedding anniversary. It’s kind of a funny story… Since the first year of marriage is the year os “paper” as far as gifts go, I had mentioned to him that I got him a paper gift. And he decided…
Hands up if you have seen a brass bar cart on a magazine, a blog or Pinterest in the last 3 months. Ok… that’s literally everybody! It seems the bar cart is the new chevron – it’s everywhere! As much as I’d love me a piece of this brass and glass pie, I’m not keen…
I have tackled wreaths before. First there was the door wreath which has since collected a few spider webs and yes, still hangs on my front door. Then there was the book page wreath, which is now hanging on my kitchen hutch and I love it. Last year I didn’t make a Christmas wreath – I bought…
Hi, you guys! Remember that $25 kitchen set I got a while ago? You know, the one I scored on Kijiji and had featured on Love on Sunday? Yeah, that one! Well the chairs were looking a little… rough around the edges. Literally. That fabric was the farthest thing from fresh, and yet the shape…
I know, I know… some of you have already seen this because you went to the post featured on The Thinking Closet, but just in case you missed it, I wanted to share again, so here it is. Though I edited some parts out, I wanted to keep my rap in true Thalita form –…
Ever since reading this post on Style North about The Junction Flea, I have wanted to go! Amy also posted about it, and that just fueled the fire. I can’t believe I learned about this so late in the game! For those of you who don’t know, the Junction Flea happens every second Sunday of…
Remember way back when… when I ordered some Rub’n Buff and it took almost a month for me to get it? (If you are a follower on Instagram, you know all too well!) It apparently also took me almost a month to actually use it. Truth be told, I was intimidated by the Buff. I…
This is so very much like my wreath post a few weeks ago…I have totally jumped on another bandwagon and I don’t care who knows it. Chalkboards are awesome and fun and as far as I’m concerned, a totally cool way to put up little notes for everyone to see. And with the rise of chalkboards comes chalkboard…
So it seems that gold and brass accents are making a heavy duty comeback in the decorating world these days, and I have to say this makes me very glad for the pieces we have collected in our living room with brass accents like our still unpainted big green monster (though the brass is sad-looking…
Remember that thrifting trip a few days ago? And that lamp I got for $5.99? Well I got it a pretty little shade from that Ikea trip yesterday for a whopping $10. Alex found a little white table on someone’s curb a while back, and when we were fixing up the kitchen cabinets, he figured…
