Yeah it’s Friday! It has been a long week with the time change and for some reason this one has been hard to get used to. It is nice that it is lighter later in the evenings and I fell like summer is just around the corner! 

A new year brings out lots of information on what is hot and what’s on it’s way out in the design world. There are a ton of trends new and still hanging on so I thought I would narrow it down and share a few that I love and plan on using in 2017.

I love the look of a vintage rug in a kitchen. They were calling it a trend last year but I think the look is here to stay.

I love granite and how each slab is unique and there are some beautiful patterns and colourations available. If you decide to go with a granite countertop make it the star of your kitchen and choose the right backsplash. 

I love Valentine’s Day! Not only is it a celebration of LOVE but it is a great excuse to add some girly touches to your home. 

I fell in love with the Restoration Hardware Balustrade Salvaged Wood coffee table but with the Canadian Dollar being so low it would cost me approx $2,700 CAD to get it to my door. Yikes!
