Finally settling in after four years

I think I’ve finally put down roots. After all, it took three years to decide on a colour to paint my walls and now, in year four, I’ve made the move and ordered bookshelves.

It’s really time to stop treating my place like a rental. I can’t do massive renovations but I can do some small things to perk the place up. The goal, as I was telling a friend in the same situation, is to think jewel box – a small place filled with treasures you love in colours you love and is comfortable and welcoming.

Sunday business chat over brunch

I had brunch with my friend Dag on the weekend. Dag owns a consignment store called Consign Toronto which I’ve written about before. He opened it approximately a year ago and he’s doing well. Well enough that he’s taking the next step. I can’t speak about it yet but based on what he told me, I think it’s a great direction to take the consignment experience.
