Making Change: Living in a 96 Square Foot House



Isn't this incredible? I couldn't believe it at first but for one to two people it's totally doable. You'd have to throw out a lot of your ways of thinking a house should be but it's doable! I get claustrophobic so unless I had a big yard (where's it's not -40 for 4 months out of the year) I don't think I could do it but it's very inspirational!

Making Change: Happiness



This is good right? I have been struggling lately with just being happy with me, and with what I have. I have a really great life and I don't know why I get caught up in having what someone else has. Well, I do sort of know, I am constantly around media sources that pour that into me; you have to have better, more, what the other guy has, stronger, faster, more expensive. Don't get me wrong, there's just some things I want the best of but really why can't we just be happy too? Why not be in the now, enjoy the now, enjoy what we have right here, and right now? I'm working on it that's for sure.

Making Change: One Day Without Shoes


This day is all about bringing awareness to what it's like to not have shoes. It might sound silly, but if you think of it I mean there's really a lot you can't do without shoes. Just even think of -30 without shoes. You wouldn't have feet for very long. And then think of trying to shop without shoes...nope, won't happen. Check out more at the Tom's website.

Sandbox Photoshoot (behind the scenes)



I don't know Alesha super well but what I do know is that she's super rad and that I love her uniqueness, style and personality so I thought I would share this video with you! She entered a fashion show/contest where you had to create a whole outfit out of old materials (up-cycling). Isn't that great? I love what she came up with too!

Make Me Happy Monday: Bringing Life to a Vintage Toy


My sister shared these a while ago on her blog, and I figured if I waited a while it wouldn't be so much of a little sister copying big sister sort of thing, but the fact of the matter is she shares really cool stuff and I want to share it too!! And I want to be able to come back to it if I want to show others (part of the reason I have a blog in the first place!)

So either way, I'm sharing it now! I hope you like it! And it's just a nice reminder of what we can do with something old and how we can bring new life to things!

Thanks Crystal for sharing!

Happy Monday Everyone!

"Dear God" Letters

Take a look at these great "Dear God" letters that some kids wrote. I love how they are just so honest and simple about it. They're to the point and just real. I love it!

Making Change: Little Secrets

Your secret from Jean-Sebastien Monzani on Vimeo.

Wow, right? I really like this. It's totally something we should do a whole lot more often. Just be like a kid again. Yesterday because we're "grown up" doesn't mean we have to let go of those little things. And I think sometimes it's those little things, those little pleasures, and those little secrets that keep us happy, simple and joyful. Life is about the little things, so don't forget them!

Vintage toys, because I'm really still just a kid

I was at a friends house the other day and they had a cute little vintage robot and I first of all wanted it and second of all it made me think of being a kid again and all the cool toys I used to have...So I decided to do a little post on some of the toys from "back in the day". Take a sip of some tea and sit back and enjoy a step back to being a kid again.
