I was snooping through some artsy blogs looking for inspiration the other day and came across this awesome mermaid photograph. I wasn’t sure what I was looking at until I went over to the article here. I love the colours and the texture. I then discovered it was all done with recycled bottles. The artist Von Wong, wanted to bring attention to the overuse of plastic bottles. He knew that plastic pollution was a boring topic and he had to find a way to make it more interesting.

Wild Birthday Party
Our youngest was turning 6 this year and insisted on having a wolf birthday party. She is obsessed with them for some reason at the moment, she says they are her spirit animal, haha.

I have been getting plenty of requests for a house tour of our new place from family and friends so I thought I would take the opportunity over the holidays to get some pictures taken, finally! The house is almost a 100 years old and was built in 1920. There was an addition built in 2008 but they did a great job keeping within the aesthetic of the original farm house. We have five acres of land, a barn which will soon house some chickens and my studio which hasn’t been winterized yet. It was an incredible amount of work and perseverance to get this place but is was all worth it. In all of ...
