Establish a Colour Scheme

The secret to fabulous décor is to keep the colour palette simple and focus on two complementary colours. On trend for this holiday season is pairing opposite colours together. Once the basic palette is set, add in a third accent colour, such as silver or gold. This will help complete the look and bring it to life. [Read more…]

Understanding the Nutrition Facts Table Helps Keep You Healthy and Could Win You Free Food! Try the #FocusontheFacts Quiz-Giveaway

March 9, 2016 by Kathryn 232 Comments

When I was a child, my mom taught me the basics of good nutrition in all kinds of ways. She cooked from scratch often, shunned takeout and convenience food and always checked food labels when shopping. Almost as soon as I learned to read, I’d also learned that the first ingredient listed on a product label was the ingredient with the largest proportion in the product. (I had to put back many boxes of cereal I wanted since my mom refused to buy any that had sugar as the top ingredient!)

Now that I have kids of my own, food nutrition is even more important to me. And that’s why I’m happy that the Food and Consumer Products of Canada, the Retail Council of Canada, the Canadian Federation of Independent Grocers and Health Canada have partnered together to help educate Canadians about food nutrition and food labels with its new Nutrition Facts Education campaign!

Easy DIY Paper Covered Picnic Table Makeover

There’s nothing like spring to bring out my inner creativity, and this year I had the chance to really show off my springtime style with a fun trash to treasure spring makeover project! Giving an outdated item new life is something I’ve always enjoyed, both because it saves money and because it lets me put a unique twist on items in our home. While I had a few different project ideas, the one piece of furniture most in need of some tender loving care was our back yard picnic table, so I set out to take it from drab to fab with a budget of just $25!

After two weeks of gorgeous weather, a huge snowstorm had me frightened I’d have to abandon the project, but I’d managed to cover the top of the table in time to keep it dry enough for the makeover. My blow dryer came in handy as well for ensuring the seats were dry enough to sand and paint. I started by using the sanding attachment on my power drill to smooth the top and seats while removing the peeling paint at the same time. [Read more…]
