Welcome Home To Our Family!

We’re Margarite and Alexandra - mother-daughter interior decorators who have worked together since 2014. We’ve beautified many homes, and now we want to write to you about all things home and design! Whether we’re talking about living room configuration or landscaping, we are going to deep dive into several topics under the design umbrella., and we are very much looking forward to writing to you in a more personal way; different from social media.

Like many, we have numerous interests that span far outside of any one category and since we wouldn’t want to limit ourselves in the way of creativity, (and perhaps we want to live out any fantasies we may have about being modern-day writers) we intend to write to you about them all! Get ready for topics like fashion, beauty, travel, health, and so much more. WE ARE GIDDY at the prospect of finally showing that we are multi-faceted beings, just like you!

Most importantly, however, we’re thrilled that you’re here with us! We want our blog to be the place you come to relax and feel good & happy. Grab your favourite drink and unwind with us. Alexandra will often be drinking Earl Grey or ginger turmeric tea while writing (unless I’m having a particularly difficult week, then mama needs a glass of cab sauv!), and Margarite might be sipping on some tart cherry juice or soda water with lemon. We’re going to delve deeper into the “why’s” behind our drink choices, among many other things, but for now, we wanted to give you a warm greeting and say that we cannot wait to share more of our world with you!

To tell you a bit more about us; Margarite is a mother of 2 humans and 2 animals. She worked in tech before pursuing a career in interiors over 20 years ago. She now happily resides in Toronto suburbia researching her varied topics of interest and staying active in sports in her spare time.

Alexandra is a mother of 1 animal and is happily living on the outskirts of the Greater Toronto Area. She previously worked in hospitality and education and now enjoys learning more and more about the world of health & wellness and taking opportunities to revive her dancing skills when she’s not working on homes.

Between the two of us, we’ve spanned a wide range of occupations that combine to lend differing perspectives to both our work and our lives. We feel fortunate to have had these experiences, ones from which we write to you.

Once more, welcome to our family :)
