  • Nothing like sunflowers and contemplating the new seasons

    Well good rainy afternoon.I am pa-pa pooped today and drowning my eyes in coffee. I spent the last few days fighting humidity to finish up some custom work and sewing my little fingers off. As I finish up more and more of my pillow stock I get more and more excited to rip my store and home apart ...

Blogging Since 2015

This blog is written by Meg and includes tales of the renovations/ decor changes of her home and the shop she owns in Fonthill, Ontario. It goes back many years, much before the shop was born. It is like one of those stacking dolls. It started with a couple of kids buying their forever home. It snowballed into renovations, which turned into garage shows and then a store. If you are new here, welcome! We are glad you stopped by.
