DESIGN, ART, FASHION, FOOD, LIFESTYLE 

Hi, I'm Sarah. Designer, Artist, Mom, Creative. Realizing we can all find moments in each day to really enjoy. Is there a room in your home that you really stop to take in each day because it brings comfort and makes you smile? One you can't wait to get back to after a long day? Do you have a favorite outfit that makes you feel like you're bound to have the best day because you're wearing it? A worn in pair of joggers that you instantly relax in once they're on? I do and it's my favorite. Maybe it sounds silly to start thinking about little things in a big way but taking on these ideas in small ways turns little moments in our everyday into moments we slow down and think about.. and start to treasure and anticipate. These little things are what I'm passionate about and what I'm here to share. Designing your spaces so you love them and can't wait to get into them. Painting watercolors that are easy and airy and affordable because art should be accessible for everyone. Sharing great finds when it comes to fashion and blogging about all those little things and little moments that might help you take a moment in your day and think "yeah, I enjoyed that".

 

Thanks for being here -

LATELY ON THE BLOG

Hi, I'm Sarah

All that above? That's so me. I'm pretty simple.. easy effortless style in fashion and home. Sharing pieces you want to live in and live with. I'm about family and friends, laughing a lot, making the day to day lovely, enjoying little moments. Creating a home that is welcoming and feels good. I love to organize and I feel there is a place for everything. I love to collect but I can't stand clutter. I love a space that is filled with things you love, where your eye can travel and take everything in without disruption. Cooking a great meal no matter how simple, great ingredients, a cookbook for guidance but sometimes taking your own path.

People are often surprised when I mention that I offer e design.. how does that work? What does that mean? For the past 10+ years years I have been designing rooms from a far. You don't have to be local, you don't have to be in Canada! The best part of e design is we do all of our communicating, planning, designing, and shopping.. online. 

​

The process is easy and efficient. We'll start with you dropping me a quick line below, tell me a little about your project, inquire about pricing and current time lines. From here I'll have you fill out a design questionnaire where you can tell me all about the space and direction, your likes and loves, dislikes, things to stay in the space, anything I should know, along with a budget. Do budgets need to be $$$$? They sure don't. You'll take some photo's of the space and any other rooms in your home I should see so I have a full vision of your home. From here I pull together an initial design board.. this will not be a fully designed room, but one that gives you a feel, shows a color scheme, has key details. With your feedback on the initial board I continue to find inspiration, edit, source and build the room. I've found it is most efficient for both of us.. I'm not off for weeks designing a space with all the details.. that you really don't like. With this initial board I want your gut feelings. If you don't like it, I want to know. If you love it.. amazing. If you love pieces.. perfect. The idea is that I can in a shorter timeline pull together my initial ideas for you and have you tell me if you like the direction. Once the initial board feels good I can continue to develop the layers of the room. This way we are in constant contact and you are fully in the loop with where I'm at, the time I'm dedicating to you and where we are in the process. It's honest and feels good to me. 

​

With each step of the design process your email will include a visual design board along with all shopping links. Links will absolutely be in line with the country you reside in. I won't send Canadians links to US shops that only ship to the US. US residents will have all links that ship within the USA. At the time of the e design all links sent will be ones in stock and available.

​

The design fee for the room includes edits until the room is one you love. 

 

A few things to note |

I can't unfortunately control shipping timelines or items selling out if you wait to purchase.

All ordering is done by the client. 

Invoicing for the e design is done through a PayPal invoice and is due at the start of the project.

I'm always here to communicate.. if you think of anything, see something during the process, reach out at any time! I'm always happy to hear from you.

Once I send over a design board at any stage in the project, take the time you need to go over the details. Let it sink in. Reply when you can and once you do I will also reply to let you know when I am scheduled to be working on your space again. It's efficient and timely and allows you to know a general area of time when you should be receiving the next visual! Of course sourcing, finding the perfect piece in the right price point, designing and planning does take time to pull together so always allow for a few days for it to come together on my end.
