My Beauty of a Bump!

I’m absolutely smitten by this maternity photoshoot taken by Robin Sassi, she’s made me feel and look like a God damn superstar babe whilst being pregnant, and as you know, when being pregnant you don’t always feel the most beautiful or ‘yourself’.

So I thought I’d share these beautiful shots she took, here are some of my favourite!

I believe I was 32 weeks here, I’m much bigger now!

I love that our little Moto was also in on the shots, he’s my everyday companion and best friend and she captured our relationship perfectly!

And that’s what I’ll leave you with, my half naked body and my beautiful baby bump! 

A huge thank you to Robin for doing such a great job at capturing ‘us’. So crazy to think that inside that belly is our little girl. If you’re also in Toronto, and are looking for wedding, maternity or newborn photos make sure to get in touch with her, she was a gem to work with and made me feel so comfortable in my own skin!

  • New Drop in the Shop!: Letterpress Handmade Notebook

    image

    I’m super excited to finally be launching our journals online! It’s been a long time in the making and we’ve been testing them out to see how well they do in person/ at markets. What we’ve found is we can barely keep them on the shelves- a very good sign!

    With that being said I’ve finally reserved a bunch for sales just online!

    Our notebooks are letterpressed delicately on handmade cotton rag paper with each book handmade and bound by the book binders we work with.

    Shop them over on our Etsy Shop!

  • Three of my Favourite Journals for the year 2020!

    image

    As you already know I’m a huge paper/ stationery fiend and lately I’ve been craving to share my excitement over these three new journals that I’ve picked up for 2020! For some reason I’ve been missing blogging a little, so I decided to put together a dedicated post just to express my love for them!

    I know it’s February already, but for me the year is still just getting started and I’m super excited to sink my teeth into these three beauties. A lot of change is coming for us in 2020 with a new little peanut on her way, so it’s definitely made me want to embrace every waking moment, even more so by writing it all down!

    1. Our Love Story Journal From First Kiss to Last Kiss from Promptly Journals

    I so wish I had this journal earlier in our walk of life because it’s just the most dear thing ever! With each page asking you questions like eg. 'How was your first kiss?’, to ‘what was dating like?’, all the way to writing down moments from your 70th wedding anniversary. It’s just so adorable.

    I love the concept of this journal, as it’s the perfect little place to reminisce and remember why and how you fell in love! And it might even serve as a reminder on the bad days as well, who knows!

    I picked up The Love Story Journal in Sand. The cover of the journal is wrapped in this gorgeous linen with the Promptly logo beautifully debossed.

    2. A Completely Childhood History From Womb to 18 Years Old from Promptly Journals

    Following the last Promptly Love Story Journal, this one is the perfect fit for us moving forward in our season of life. I am especially excited to get into this one because it will be all dedicated to our new little family member! It documents questions from your pregnancy all the way to 18 years of age with prompts, as well as blank pages to paste photos in.

    Here’s a break down of the index, showing you how many years the journal covers. Also there is a spread for the family tree, as well as pages for the initial baby hand and footprints, how cute!

    I mean just imagine getting this book from your parents on your 18th birthday, where it’s just facts and funny answers all about your childhood, it would be a gift of a lifetime, literally! If I received something like this, I would’ve cried so hard just knowing that my parents dedicated a moment to record something special each month/ year.

    The cover for this Childhood History Journal is in the color Dusty Blue and the cover material is slightly different from the love journal, this one is made of a faux leatherette.

    3. 2020 Year Task Planner from Appointed

    image

    This is my yearly planner and I’m so in love with it. Anything Appointed does, I always swoon after- and this task planner is nothing short of amazing. From it’s beautiful monthly side tabs, to it’s minimal layout it encapsulates the year perfectly.

    It has space for each individual day’s to do list, as well as a whole other side with an area to write out your priorities, tasks and notes. The cover is wrapped in dove grey bookcloth with the 2020 task planner beautifully foiled in gold on top.

    image

    I believe the 2020 Year Task Planner in Dove Gray is sold out online at the moment, but if you check local stockists, they might still have their 2020 planners floating around and on sale as well! So give that a try if you haven’t already picked up a yearly planner.

    Well that’s a round up for me, I better get off this computer and start putting pen to paper, cause there’s a lot of journalling waiting to be done.

    What journals are you excited to get into this year? I’d love to hear!
