With the Grand Glenora now passed on to a happy new home owner, we’ve been going full tilt at the Heights House. I feel like I’ve been rather quiet about it and it’s simply because I’ve been so preoccupied with other things (meaning mostly Jack!). Today though (finally!!), I thought I would share some inspiration and
Before&After
Modern Metal Railings + A Sleek Staircase Design
One thing both Ryan and I immediately noticed when we first toured the Ravine House was the staircase.

Destination Deck – Creating An Outdoor Oasis
If you’re anything like me, you are sooooo ready to start clocking some hours outdoors! We are due for good weather any day now, and as soon as the sun comes out, you can bet that me (and Jack) will be on our deck. I love spending time here whether that’s cozying up with a coffee
