We’ve been living here for almost ten months now.

This condo was an absolute coup de coeur for me right upon setting sight on it. My man was also keen on it, but not so happy about the price (a fairly good deal for the neighborhood). With much pleading and persuasive arguments, I managed to convince him to give these beautiful walls a chance.

We moved in at the end of august 2011, and soon after, entered a very hectic period in our lives.

Many things happened between August 2011 and March 2012, leaving little time for us to open most boxes, let alone decorate.

Finally, as things began to settle down, I started unpacking our belongings.

This place is still very much a work in progress, as I am working alone for the most part. To make this process more interesting, I have decided to go through my many objects and to bring meaning to them, either by researching their history, by recalling the tale of how they came into my life or by explaining their common use to you readers.

I hope you’ll enjoy these stories!

Come on in!
