  • to farmhouse or not to farmhouse, that is the question

    Wow, Slacker. Last post July 15. So Sorry.

  • Christie Antique Show

    It was a bloody hot day, millions of people, tons of antiques. One of the biggest shows in Canada.

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.
