You guys!!! I'm kind of sad that this is the last of my Hallmark Christmas home series! It was such a joy to decorate my home this year. The bright reds and holly jolly spirit that this concept brought was more than my heart could handle. Hallmark movies were alive and well in my home and that makes this dreamy, romantic (yes, I am....can you believe it?) and passionate "Jenn" a very happy lady. Grab a cup of coffee and enjoy the last three areas at Wild Rose Country Home wit

Welcome to part two of my three part series showcasing my Hallmark Christmas Home I've created for the holidays. This part is going to be so exciting because it features one of my favourite parts of the home...in fact it's the heart of the home: the kitchen and family room. Take a moment for a happy sigh and think about all of the memories you've had in these rooms of your own over the years. Doesn't that feel good? Well, sit back with a cup of your favourite hot cider and ta

It's officially the holiday season and I've decorated my house to mirror the classic Hallmark Christmas movie scenes we see on TV. This means tons of twinkle lights, poinsettia's galore and anything that would evoke that heart warming glow you get when you really pay attention to the background decor in these movies. The theme almost leans towards that classic "80's upscale-style Christmas" at the McCallister's house in Home Alone: big, bold statement reds, pattern everywhere

There's nothing better than an organized pantry, am I right? I was so happy when Home Hardware approached me to partner with them to announce Beauti-tone's Colour of the Year for 2020, because I knew this was my golden opportunity to paint and restyle the pantry. Here are the before shots of the pinkey-beigey-taupey colour that I am still -to this day- trying to rid my house of: And here's the mess that came out of it... The lighting is awful in the pantry, so it does come of

The key to the best Woodland-themed baby shower in my opinion, is a ton of tips and tricks from those who have "been there and done that". I am going to give you eight easy tips and tricks that will help you enjoy the party and not be run off of your feet even before the guests arrive. My daughter and her husband are having a baby boy in a few weeks and we threw them a cute baby shower. Woodland theme seemed quite popular and there were a lot of items I could get online throu

I still can’t get over the fact that it’s deadly cold outside and I’m decorating for spring (cue the crazy-eyed chuckle)! If it wasn’t for the Easter festivities in March, I probably wouldn’t have pulled out the spring flowers just yet. Can we just move Easter into the end of April, then perhaps I'd feel better about it all…haha!?! I guess that’s setting me up for failure. In any case…I had a choice…to decorate or not to decorate…what do you think I chose ;)? Of course I cave

Who wants SPRING!!!???? I do! I do! I know I speak for most Canadians (and a lot more of you around the northern parts of the planet) when I say, "OK winter, we are soooooo over you!". I think the temperatures in Lloydminster are trying to climb little by little. We are still hovering around -1 Celsius each day and -10 at night which still seems like ten degrees below the average, in my opinion. The ice and snow melt a little - teasing us into thinking 20 degrees is around th

When my daughter asked if I would put together a Sephora themed birthday party for her 22nd birthday, I was super excited! Black & white décor is so classic and I couldn’t wait to start brainstorming. The first thing that was an amazing coincidence was that I had just purchased a black and white rug a month prior to her idea! I was thinking Sephora without knowing it! So, I knew this was the perfect jumping off point and the perfect scenario for this 22nd birthday bash! I dec
