LIFE LATELY – FEBRUARY 2022

02.27.22

For such a short month, February had a big presence. Here’s a roundup of life’s bright moments lately.

FEBRUARY’S THEME WAS: MAKING FIRES & FUTURE PLANS


Quiet snow globe scene after a big storm.
Burning logs and candles. A daily ritual.
A sunny morning bookshelf moment.
Slippers are always at the ready. Source for these clogs and slides here.

A couple of selfies when the mood struck.

Deep winter vitamin C intake.

Gave my nails some much needed love.

A cozy style moment with the monstera.
Nothing like candle light and a bubble bath after a day of shovelling snow.

Play time with this fella was a February highlight for sure.

Absolutely love the materials and palette that we created for a Ruhl Builds project.
A notebook sketch for the Steep Hill laundry station.

DOBBY

AKA. THE SHERIFF OF STEEP HILL

My best pal was always on the lookout for any intruders and has been blowing out his coat as if spring was coming!

EVIE

AKA QUEEN OF RELAXATION

This girl knows what she wants and exactly how to live the life of royalty.

Heavy branches weighed down by ice.
Every needle coated in ice.
It would be pretty if it wasn’t so damn slippery!
One of my favourite views on the property.
Looking up from the summit of Steep Hill.
My appreciation for trees and firewood has reached an all-time high this month.

TREE APPRECIATION WALLPAPERS

To say thanks for tuning in I made a few wallpapers for you. These are all detailed shots of different trees around Steep Hill. I’ve always loved trees but this winter has given me a whole knew understanding of their incredible life force.

    Beautiful! I love the smiling pictures of you and Dave. 🙂

    Always enjoy getting a post from you. A good variety of info, plus your sense of style, your beautiful cottage and surrounding nature, the critters, and timely information, especially about Ukraine. Such a sad situation that is completely unnecessary.

  3. Rya says:

    Lovely photos! You have a good eye. Don’t tell me you took those with your iPhone! If not, would you be so kind to share what camera you used?
    Stay warm – spring is just around the corner. Looking forward to seeing some warm weather outfits.

    Your property looks absolutely magical. Do you just want to pinch yourself every morning when you wake up there?

    Thank you for including the Ukrainian aid links in your newsletter. My husband’s family is from Ukraine, so this all feels very, very real and completely heartbreaking.

    Thank you for the wallpapers! Love when you offer them. 💕
