OH MONDAY!
1. Loft hideaways give me all the happy childhood vibes and I adore this one by Musk Studio in Melbourne.
2. Thank you so much for your kind words about Miles' baby nursery over the past few days; I'm so glad you love it as much as our little client does! Your words of encouragement are always very much appreciated.
3. I've being doing lots of e-designs lately and love this sweet little girl nursery I designed so much! The space that this was created for is super tiny and the little cloud rug is just the sweetest little mat for a room that a big rug won't fit.
4. With all that sun we had last week, I've pulled out the kids sandals. Saltwater sandals are our absolute favourites for all three kids! If you haven't tried them, they are great for everyday wear, grip well and are designed to go in and out of water!
5. Some of you might think I'm crazy but I'm a morning person. I was always the first to get up as a kid and on days where I'm not entirely sleep deprived, I like to be the first up now. This quote perfectly summarizes why.
Have a great week!
OH MONDAY!
1. We have a very exciting week coming up!!! Our newest little boy nursery is being revealed on the blog this Wednesday! I can't wait to share it with you all.
2. Totally inspired by this incredible indoor slide in a home in Kiev, Ukraine designed by Ki Design. Getting to the living room would be so much quicker (and SO much more fun!). Totally worth going to their site to see the whole space. I love it.
3. Kaia and Noelle had 'crazy hair day' at school last week and their ideas were so amazing that I had to share.
4. Did you see local Vancouver company Petits Vilains' newest Spring collection? Their gorgeous line of children's clothes are divine and are designed and made right here!
5. For those of you that are still reading, thank you!!! Thank you for following my blog, for continuing to read even when I'm not 100% consistent, for allowing me to try different things, for following me on Instagram, for sharing your love of all things kids, understanding this crazy journey we call parenthood and the magical ride it is. Thank you for your support and your time; I truly appreciate it.
Have a great week!
OH MONDAY!
1. Birthday parties (all three kids), Easter and a full schedule has meant that I haven't been here as often as usual. Well...hello, I'm back! If you're new around here, on Mondays I share 5 random things...inspirations, shopping finds, things we have seen or done over the weekend and anything else that I think you might like. The column is called Oh Monday because that's how I feel every Monday when I wake up. Ha.
2. Our sweet twins, Kaia and Noelle, celebrated their 7th birthday with a party this weekend and they had the BEST time. We hired a magician, which proved to be perfect for this age.
3. We made the drive to Fort Langley and area for a day trip to take the kids to see some countryside. It didn't disappoint!!!
4. I came across this beautiful art print on Instagram and thought you might love it too. Wouldn't it be perfect in a nursery?
5. Leaving you with a tiny peak into our newest little client's room, which was shot last week! I can't wait to share the full reveal soon.
Happy Monday friends!
OH MONDAY!
1. We had EPIC snowfall here in Vancouver, Canada (10-15cms) and not only did our kids play in it for the whole weekend, but the playhouse covered in snow was just so sweet, I had to snap a photo of the kids and share. I've had a few people ask about where our playhouse came from lately; if you haven't seen it before, go read the full makeover of the wooden playhouse.
2. We spent the weekend at home and around the city. A trip to The Cross Design and Decor is always a highlight - perfectly dreamy textiles, the prettiest lighting and just an overall relaxing Sunday stroll vibe. If you haven't been, it's a definite must-stop for all design lovers who come to Vancouver and their kids section is to die for!

3. The kids got these super cute handmade puppets (made from reclaimed wool!) from Cate and Levi a couple of months ago and I have been looking for a puppet theatre ever since. Any amazing ones out there???
4. This week is all about shelf styling!!! Such a fun week. I am picking out finds for both the men's retail project and the playroom project that I am currently decorating (both are nearly finished!).
5. I have an entire board dedicated to wallpaper on Pinterest with lots of inspiration. Wallpaper makes everything pop just a little more. I found this gorgeous photo of a corner in a girls room that proves this point perfectly.
Have a wonderful week everyone!
OH MONDAY + A GIVEAWAY!
Good morning + happy Monday!!!
1. Vancouver with the sun shining is the most magical place to be and this weekend it snowed again adding extra bright light to everyone's day. Hurray!
2. I'm creating a little vignette for the BC Home and Garden Show that is running this week in Vancouver from February 21st - 25th. Five bloggers from around the city were given 2 IKEA crates, a $50 Visa card and some products from Rustoleum to use to create something special. I have styled a kids shelf that will be given away to one lucky winner at the end of the show! Enter on Instagram by following @winterdaisykids and @vanhomeshows, and tag a friend! That's it. Winner will need to pick up the prize on Sunday February 25th after 5:45pm at BC Place Stadium. Here are a few items that will be part of the giveaway:
3. I've been sick for the best part of the past week but I'm sharing some of the process (with my crackly voice!) of creating the crates for the show on Instagram stories if you feel like having a look at the behind the scenes.
4. This week I'll be stopping in at our playroom project which I can't wait to show you all soon!
5. Sometimes simple words are the reminder I need.
Have a good week friends!
HELLO!
WINTER DAISY was created when Melissa Barling was laying on the couch while pregnant with twins. She dreamed of a beautiful baby room but couldn't get up and make it happen. The babies were born and in those mid night wakes and early morning feeds, she decided to leave her corporate job to start a design studio + blog. Welcome to WINTER DAISY.
