I happily wandered around the on the internet style world once again to bring you a fresh batch of Canadian blogs worth inspecting out. I was thrilled to get enthusasiastic comments on last week’s publish (Great Canadian Blogs) as well as I hope you discover much more to like in this roundup.
I wasn’t amazed by the slew of blogs by Canadians sharing their remodelling drama with those of us who’d rather checked out about dust than wade with it — H&H included. In our Renovator’s Notebook blog, our senior editor Meg Crossley let us peek into her basement reno. stay tuned: Her cherished Sicilians are gone, however Meg’s back with a new construction-free blog at the end of the month. as well as in a few weeks you can begin complying with Catherine Macintosh as she as well as her partner, Justin, strike apart the primary floor of their very first house.
If remodellings are your thing, you can’t beat 247reno for fantastic style (above is their bathroom), a budget plan truth inspect as well as their comprehensive resources section of trusted service providers.
At Aubrey + Lindsay you can spy on a pair of first-time homeowners as they share motivation (above) as well as jobs ranging from baseboards to basements.
Designers’ own blogs are a fantastic source of news, products as well as suggestions — a bargain compared with hiring a top firm for a few hundred an hour.
Ivan Meade of Meade style group in Victoria handles to run a multidisciplinary studio, discover new eye candy every week as well as likewise publish prolonged interviews with worldwide style stars such as Jonathan Adler, Barbara Barry as well as Scot Meacham wood of Thane Studio, who developed this grand entryway. Hands up if you never tire of herringbone-patterned hardwood.
Vancouver designer Lindsay brown frequently wanders outside the mainstream style scene at the Ouno style blog (we’ve featured her pillows in the magazine). liked the simplicity as well as environmental cred of this PossibliTree she featured recently.
Atmosphere interior style in Saskatoon has fantastic space shots on their site as well as style suggestions as well as new products on their blog (above). I likewise delighted in the messages from Tina’s House…A client Diary about the reno experience of one of Atmosphere’s clients.
Just Beachy is the free-spirited blog of designer as well as diy diva Christie Kauffman of CK Interiors. She’s brimming with embellishing ideas: A chalkboard for less than $7? Done (just waiting on a frame). An upholstered headboard with nailhead trim? Done (gorgeous!). An unsightly mahogany coffee table turned tufted ottoman? Done (don’t weep when you compare exactly how much you paid for yours). inspect out both of Chris’ sites for jobs she does around her beach-inspired house (the household space is above) as well as the makeovers she pulls off for clients.
And we end our designer site-hopping trip at the blog of Montreal’s Igloo Design, where they just redid their firm’s bathroom. I’m always drawn to the airy, floating high quality of open vanities like this. then I keep in mind my richly cluttered life with two youngsters as well as not-super-tidy-but-otherwise-sweet husband. For now, it’s closed storage all the way. however a woman can dream…
Besides designers, of program there are legions of design fans keeping style-conscious blogs. Halloween design that isn’t scream-inducing is always a treat. Saw this at Wallpaper.
Love the vintage vibe as well as provocative cropping in the photography of Sara Norris, whose work I found on design Addict.
If you appreciate homemade products as well as the people who produce them — as well as if you have etsy.com on speed-click — then you’ll like Poppytalk. Jan Halvarson takes you to the very best booths at craft shows as well as features only the most fascinating handcrafted stuff. The baker in me liked these adorable cards as well as paper products by The gorgeous job from the Vancouver one of a Kind Show. If you want to see much more of Jan’s style, click with this picture gallery of her preferred finds.
Another prominent blog I truly like for the gorgeous-factor is Montreal-based Lake Jane. I like exactly how this kitchen area isn’t scared to show its digestive tracts keeping that row of pans. as well as the colour-blocked books? Love. In much more methods than one. I adore our kitchen area however that’s one thing I desire I had much more of: shelves for cookbooks. (There’s a wee video trip right here if you want to see exactly how we reno’d our kitchen.) cruise with this picture gallery to see Lake Jane style with favourites from developer Marie-Eve Best.
If we missed your preferred Canadian style blog, please share it in the comments. as well as let me understand your preferred Canadian food blogs: you show me yours, I’ll show you mine!
