What a difference it makes to have sentiments hanging on your walls. It completes a room. We finally got around to hanging some things up in our study.
An ORK poster of our Toronto town. I love how they crammed all our many tiny (and distinctive) neighbourhoods into this map. According to them, we live in the neighbourhood of Little Portugal.
I found these vintage Ontario pennant flags with Rosalyn at the Textile Museum yardage sale! My favourite is the little Charlottetown flag (for the capital city of our smallest province in Canada).
We finally framed some of our wedding photos! Our beautiful wedding photos were taken by Gabe, and my brother snapped the photo at the top of Jin and I at our wedding.
A golden wing, just because it is beautiful (approved by Mea).
And, the galaxy.
There are still a lot of unpainted walls in our house. I am planning to paint them in the fall/winter. I am already collecting a pile of things to complete those walls.

those personal touches in your home are beautiful. i'm afraid of committing things to my walls for some bizarre reason, so thank you for helping me change my mind!
ReplyDeletei just saw those posters today! i'm undecided as to whether i should get a toronto one, or a great lakes one....(or possibly both!)
ReplyDeletethe wing is fantastic, too. where is it from?
Looks great :) And your cat is the cutest!
ReplyDeletelovely. it's fun making a beautiful nest.. i've been adding touches to our home recently too.
ReplyDeletelovely
ReplyDeletethis poster is great!
ReplyDeleteLove all the little details, it really adds flavor to a room
ReplyDeleteIt's looking so good! I love the pendant flags, and I've loved that Toronto map poster since I first saw it. Hi Mea! Hi Jin and newspaper!
ReplyDeleteyour wall looks great!
ReplyDeleteIt looks beautiful and so much fun!
ReplyDeleteLooks amazing, Celine! :D
ReplyDeletethis stage makes me happy. I'm needing to hang some art on my (semi) freshly painted bedroom walls. Then I'll feel more like I live there.
ReplyDeleteAlso, the mobile is awesome. I've been looking for something to hang over my bed.
Your blog is such a happy place, I love it!
ReplyDeleteWe have the same ORK Poster in red. Have you noticed the errors?
ReplyDeletethe poster's so nicely placed and I love the golden wing as well!
ReplyDeleteCeline, I have the same poster and have been looking for a frame everywhere! Where'd you get yours?
ReplyDeleteYour walls are looking great! I LOVE all the white (recently painted our entire place white too). And I am obsessed with 'city neighbourhood' posters. I have this New York one already! http://threepotatofourshop.com/item/Manhattan-Poster-by-Jim-Datz/2447/c2
ReplyDeletewow! that looks amazing - great job. and cute kittie!
ReplyDeletei love the orkposter - as I see sacha does too! (Sach I just checked out the one you have - super awesome!)
ReplyDeleteNo Hammer town poster, though, eh? I might have to write her and plead. I'm thinking I'll get the San Fran though... best co-op term ever. I love that city.
Wonderful picks for your home especially that golden wing.
ReplyDeleteI love the poster too! We got this http://www.famillesummerbelle.com/ map earlier this year but it'll be nice to have one for Toronto as well! Can you find it at a store or is it only available online?
ReplyDeleteLovely; all of it!
ReplyDeleteOh yes, things you treasure or love to look at are best on walls, always. I could not imagine living in a home without such things around me. Nice photos, the first one especially so.
ReplyDeleteI love the way you guys hung up the decorations. Such gorgeous wedding photos, they're making me go awww!
ReplyDeletewow! thank you so much everybody for your extremely sweet comments! It's amazing the huge difference it makes with something on the wall!
ReplyDeletein dreams - we found the wing at a thrift/junk store in the city.
eminentcritic - I have noticed neighbourhoods that I didn't know existed before! And I guess I would have named some neighbourhoods differently than others, but it is hard to tell who is right!
Annette - I got the frame at Victor Gallery on Queen st W. Do you know that place?
Quince - Jin said he saw it at a store once...he thinks? But I never saw it myself. They are pretty fast online, they ship from Canada (the toronto posters).
such a nice way to make your home - you-
ReplyDeleteyou both look beautiful in your wedding photos.
I love that gold wing.
Love the new additions to your home. And little flou flou too (cat).
ReplyDeletelove it !!!
ReplyDeleteso lovely! I love the pennants and the gold wing!
ReplyDeleteThe wings are so gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteHey Celine,
ReplyDeleteThis is Anthony, Melinda's friend. I have the ORK poster too. Where did you get that frame from? Mine's just nailed to the wall, but I was thinking I should frame it.
By the way... beautiful blog!
