Vintage.

I have been trying to clean up my living space. I've re-arranged my sitting room and have bought a few accent pieces to make my home more cozy. For a while I have wanted to buy vintage glass canisters for my kitchen counters.

When I was shopping last week in Georgia, I came across the most delightful glass canisters. In my estimation, the canisters were just about perfect. Sadly, I did not buy the canisters because I was worried about getting them home safely in my luggage. I have been thinking about these jars and have looked around the internet for something similar.

I haven't found the same canisters, but I have found some vintage inspired designs that I would love to share with you. I am hoping to get a set of three canisters in the near future and when I do, I will take some photos to post.

Other places you can find these type of canisters include: Canadian Tire, Walmart, The Container Store and Ikea.

I would like to use these jars to store candy. I was thinking of keeping licorice whips, gumballs and mints in the jars. Although it would be huge temptation, I think the canisters would make great statement accents.

This week a thought provoking image went viral. A high school art project that is starting conversations about sexualizing women's bodies and shaming women for being sexual. This photo really struck a chord with me and I wanted to share it with you.

Bedroom Benches.

Over the holidays, I received a home decor and entertaining book. I have really enjoyed the book and it has given me many ideas about how to spruce up my living space. One of the ideas has been a bedroom bench. I am a big fan of bedroom benches because they give you a place to sit when I'm getting ready, especially for putting on shoes. Depending on the style, they are also great for storage space. As a student, I am not flush with space so it's a major plus when I find stylish furniture that doubles as storage space.

Here are some of my favourite bedroom benches:

Review: Ballerina Project

I have long been a fan of ballet, and I especially love photos of ballerinas dancing. I came across a website of ballerinas who post beautiful photos of them dancing in unlikely places. If you have the cash, I'd suggest buying a print.

Mod.

As a law student, I like to spend time thinking about my future career. Sometimes, I like to picture what my future "corner" office will look. I am a big fan of the modern, understated look.I like work spaces with a lot of natural light, clean lines and space to tuck things away.I have brought together a few office designs that I could see myself in and that you may find inspiring for your own space.

I have been getting into home decor lately. I am wanting to spruce up my home and get some ideas for entertaining. I was browsing the Home Sense website and there is a pretty awesome idea section. These are my favourite two:
