Rewiring your house to install a custom art light? Expensive. This $40 one from Walmart? Priceless.

Comment ART LIGHT and I’ll send you the link to this ultra classy (and more importantly) ultra affordable light. 😌

Truly nothing compares to the feeling you get when you can look your husband dead in the eye and say, “I installed it myself.”

Moral of the story: you don’t need a full renovation to get that custom look. Sometimes you just need good lighting… and a screwdriver.

Make sure you’re following @fraicheliving for more small upgrades that make your home feel designer without the designer price tag. 😉

Being a boy mom is not what I expected.

I expected loud. I expected wild. I expected mud on everything.

And yeah, it is... but it’s also this quiet protectiveness I didn’t see coming. Big feelings. Random hugs for no reason. Deep conversations right after wrestling matches. Fierce love .... and a grocery bill that honestly feels like a personal attack 😅

But most of all? It has softened me in ways I never expected.

To my fellow mamas... what surprised you most about motherhood? 🤍

The kinda plans that get me excited these days 😅

Charles’ company @cwpersona is building a high-end spec home in the Okanagan and he’s bringing me along for the design side. Honestly? This is my dream scenario - getting to choose every finish, plan every detail, and bring a vision to life from the ground up.

Make sure you’re following me because I’m taking you behind the scenes of the entire build! Next up, I’m sharing all the design inspiration - and trust me, I’m head over heels in love with where this is going.

And if you’re looking for a home in the Okanagan… this stunner will be hitting the market. I’d love to call you my neighbour 🤍

Would you believe me if I told you this was the same house?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
When Charles and I bought this place, it was a “this has serious potential” situation. It was a MAJOR project but we love this home we’ve built. ❤️
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It’s taught us what we loved, what we’d do differently, and what’s worth the splurge.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Fast forward many years and now we build high end spec homes for @cwpersona with way more confidence (and a much better understanding of functional grout colours).
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’m kicking off a series on the blog and here about building a house - the real stuff, the mistakes, the budget conversations, all of it.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
What do you want to know? Design regrets? Where to save vs splurge? Drop your questions below 👇
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
P.S. If you’re looking for a home in Kelowna I just might have the one for you 👀. Sharing more details soon.

$Why is styling throw pillows so challenging? Here’s my go-to tips for making it a little easier: 🛋️ Change out your throw pillows or put on a different pillow cover. This instantly makes your couch feel new, but without the price tag of actually buying a new couch. Charles fully approves of this message, lol. 😅 🤍 Add a textured throw. Layers breathe life into your pieces and make the whole room feel softer and more finished. ✨ Pick a colour palette you are loving and play with it. I am leaning into light blues and straw tones for that spring is coming energy. And do not be afraid of pattern, too symmetrical can look a little… well, stiff. Bonus tip: I try and just shop for covers and use the same inserts each season. That way it’s way less to keep in storage! A pillow cover is a fraction of the size of a full pillow haha 😅 Follow along with me on @fraicheliving as I spruce up the house for spring with simple, easy little touches! #couch #sofa #sofacushions #throwpillows #homedecor$

We spend so much time waiting for life to feel special. But what if this is it?

These quiet school nights. These sleepy evenings at home before spring finally shows its face.

Here’s the reminder we all need: you don’t need a special occasion to make an ordinary day feel special. Life IS the occasion, and it doesn’t wait around.

So tell me, what’s one small thing you’re going to do this week to celebrate your life as it is? 🤍

Cocktails are looking a little different these days. 😅 Introducing: my menopause margarita. Also known as… Spa Water. 🍋

Are you going through perimenopause or menopause too? Follow @fraicheliving and comment MENOPAUSE, I’ll send you my latest update.

Here’s how to make my favourite spa water. All you need is:

• One big pitcher of water (yes, I’ve been toting this around the house like it’s my own personal water bottle)

• Collagen + electrolytes (optional, but I love them)

• Fresh citrus + fruit

• Lots of ice

Add your water and any supplement powders first (if you’re using them) and mix well. Then add your citrus, fruit, and ice. Let it sit so the flavours intensify. Sip it slowly, refill your glass, and repeat. Pretend it’s happy hour.

Girls gone mild 😂 Save this post for the next time you’re in a battle with a hot flash… and it’s winning.
