Summertime Entertaining Budget Tips!!
Summertime Entertaining Budget Tips!!
I love facebook for it connects you with fabulous people you would have never been introduce to other wise. I have been a fan of Roniques facebook posting since the moment we became friends, so it was only natural to ask if she wanted to do a guest post showcasing her always so inspiring pictures and helpful decorating/styling tips for all! I wanted all of you to be introduce to her as well so here she is and I do hope she visits us more often with her more of her inspiring tips!How to Save Money for your Summertime Party . . .
Summer inspiration is all around us! From the warm weather to the cool breezy nights that beckon us to linger with our friends in the backyard, summer is here and it’s time to throw a party! Whether you have a pool, small terraced apartment, or even meet up with your friends in the park, there is no need to be discouraged due to your pocket. Here are tips to help you save money this summer for your fabulous party!
· Come up with a theme: Before you start pricing out rental chairs, tables and tikki torches come up with a theme to carry out. If you have enough space plan for your backyard, garage or at your local park to save money on a venue. Once you have decided on a location the theme may become easier to decide. From seasonal ideas such as tropical, pool party, to choosing colors, flowers, or even choosing your favorite summertime movie can be great themes to carry out inexpensively.

· Use everyday items for decoration: Once you have chosen a theme think of everyday items you can use for decor. Are you a beach-goer who has surfboards, life preservers and other water sport items laying around the house, use them for decor around your party! For a garden summer party use the natural backdrop as your decoration and embellish by hanging colorful paper lanterns and even string lights from trees and bushes. There are many string lights available today that run on small batteries, so no worries for finding and electrical source.

On a Budget, IKEA Kitchens are great for that!!
On a Budget, IKEA Kitchens are great for that!!
Last summer we did a budget friendly renovation to a small war bungalow in Toronto. If you do not know the layout, it comes with a very small closed in kitchen with a dining room and living room on the other side of the wall. Very dark and cramped feeling usually comes to mind when you walk into one. However, we opened up the floor plan by knocking down walls and created a stunning user friendly kitchen area for the family to enjoy an new open concept lifestyle! Thanks IKEA for all your support on this project your cabinets and appliances are a show stopper!! Let alone the price for this kitchen was the best part!!
We unitized every inch we could for extra counter space and storage!
EWWW the before:
So sometimes you don't have to think outside of the box, ready made cabinets could be just the answer for your budget and project!!
Until next time,

Vanessa from Damask & Dentelle is back to share some inspiring design/decor ideas and she has some exciting news to share! Congratulations!!
It’s been a while since I chatted with you last, and it is by no means because of a lack of things to tell you… but more likely due to a horrendous schedule. I am SO vey proud to tell you that I just landed my very first TV show here in Québec on a French specialized network called Canal Vie. Let’s just say that it kinda kept me very busy. Anyhoo, I am SO happy to be here once more and share with you some thoughts.
I came across these images and a whole lot of memories and fuzzy feelings came back to me. After living in California for a few years while attending university (and surfing everyday of course), I came to really love their casual yet sophisticated style.
Airy rooms and soft textures, beaming light and industrial accents are all key features that, to me, define this style. I mean, let’s be serious here for a moment… wouldn’t it be great to sprawl here sipping a mojito?
Let me interject in your delightful style binge for a moment more and point to the fact that this rustic looking settee and armoire are actually in the master bathroom. What a great idea to add both storage and decorate a vast space… although it wouldn’t be a problem in our bathroom which is the size of a post stamp, but hey it sure is something to look forward to right?
On these delightful images… tata and chat with you soon.
