What About Elbow Patches

Melissa Mercier — Thu, 09 May 2013 16:04:10 +0000

I have worn my favorite grey wool sweater so many times, that a large hole has appeared at the left elbow. I’m thinking of adding black leather patches like in the first image. What do you think?

Beautiful Cactus Garden

Melissa Mercier — Wed, 08 May 2013 13:00:42 +0000

I have always loved cacti as home plants. Maybe it’s because of their almost total independence from humans. When I lived in Quebec City, there was this beautiful front yard with cacti everywhere and I was completely amazed on how this gardener managed to grow them outdoors with the terrible Quebec winters.

Art In Homes

Melissa Mercier — Tue, 07 May 2013 13:00:54 +0000

I just love these modern homes featuring beautiful art prominently. Owning authentic art creates such a feeling of pride that you just can’t help showing it off in an attention getting location.

The Most Beautiful Cakes

Melissa Mercier — Mon, 06 May 2013 13:00:42 +0000

Following her career as a classical ballet dancer, Ms. Austin completed the prestigious L’art de la Pâtisserie program at the French Pastry School with honors. Her cakes are so beautiful and so much art like that It must simply be impossible to put a knife through them!

I couldn’t resist these beautiful white ranunculus when I saw them at the florist. I just love their circular shape of constant petals.

For the lovers of green, this week Art In Homes features olive/yellow sofas with beautiful art pieces. Once again, if you know who the artists featured in the images are, let me know in the comment section so I can give proper credit.

The Work Of Sara Cwynar

Melissa Mercier — Wed, 01 May 2013 13:00:02 +0000

It is no surprise that with my love of monochromatism, the work by Sara Cwynar spoke to me the moment I saw it. Strangely, Cwynar is from Vancouver and I had never heard of her until today!

Walking In My Shoes

Melissa Mercier — Tue, 30 Apr 2013 15:29:13 +0000

I love walking and for the past 7 years, I have made it my main method of transportation which means that I am always on the lookout for comfortable cute flat shoes. I own of lot of ballet flats, but they are only good for short strolls. When it comes to serious long walks, I rely on my converse, but since my white pair has carried me through all the miles they could, it’s time for new ones. I am debating between the cute turquoise or the classic grey. What do you think? Maybe I’ll just have to get both!
