If you look closely you can see where the 110yo floor dips where there was once an old cast iron stove. Scribed toe kick to the rescue. . . . #tweedhouse #tweedontario #kitchendesign #oldhouselove #avantrevivalists #ikeakitchen #farrowandball #slippersatin #pointing @electroluxcan appliances #inductioncooktop #lecreuset #breville
Amazing day of meetings, plans, schemes and ideas, tasty treats and delicious sips. Exciting times my friends, exciting times. After a semi-working lunch at the cafe, I kinda wanted to spend the whole afternoon lounging here — yep, it’s the Ladies Room lounge. So cool, right? . . . #funbirthday #austinsmythcommunications #nordstrom #margotaustincreative #torontopropstylist #torontointeriorstylist #thedesigneditca #thewelleditedinterior #styling

Hey did you know it’s officially #PEIPotatoLoversMonth? In honour I bring you this image featuring spuds from the red mud of my favourite island. I mean, how gorgeous is all this heirloom Prince Edward Island produce (hello candy cane beets)? This shoot took place on a late summer’s day around dusk on Covehead Beach — a warm memory for a cold midwinter night. Fun fact: the red and white “tablecloth” is my sweatshirt that I took off and used when we determined the shot could use a bit more colour. On location one must improvise. 📷: @staceyvanberkelphoto . . . #margotaustincreative #thedesigneditca #torontopropstylist #torontointeriorstylist #thewelleditedinterior #princeedwardisland #camadasfoodisland #peipotatoes #peipotatoloversmonth
Fell so hard for the colours of these blankets on today’s vintage shopping trip - but I need a blanket like a hole in my head so they stayed where they were. Posting them here so that I can revisit them occasionally and gaze lovingly.

Graphic Tape Door DIY

February 21, 2016 in interior design, styling

I've been meaning to do a little something to the inside of the entry door at #AustinSuite for some time. I hemmed and hawed over colour after colour. Decided on yellow. Then didn't do anything. Until today. Tape!

Here's the inspo above (clockwise from top left): 1. The genius Memphis-influenced furniture designs of Kelly Behun. 2. This amazing installation by artist Esther Stocker. 3. This Christian May x Black Crow Studios collab wallpaper. 4. This Minted artwork by Jaime Derringer.

Here's the before. Clean slate. 

Here's the best part. The How-to instructions, which are as follows:

1. Apply tape to door in desired pattern until complete.

...and done.

For my next tape DIY I am taking inspiration from this incredible artwork in the NYC home of design power couple Delphine and Reed Krakoff. Good luck me.
