I prefer the Kobo app for reading books and magazines. Free app and you can d/l content on any device. You aren't limited to one device like Kindle.

I think this is a great, affordable re-do. I get the others' comments about your side tables, but not everyone has the funds to run out and buy new things. I think style is also about finding ways to use what you already have with a few improvements, and in that vein, this is a great makeover! I love the fresh combo of fuchsia, navy, and white.

Looks fabulous and I love that you did it yourself vs wallpaper. I can't imagine how painstaking it was but it was worth the effort! Beautiful space.

I love this space! You've done an amazing job in only 9 months and I love your style. Those pipe shelves are to die for. I'm a fellow Torontonian (and HR professional actually!), and I always love to see local spaces featured in AT. Great feature!

Also, pallets. I hate pallets. Pallet shelves! Pallet tables! Pallet couches! Ugh, just stop.

You did an exceptional job on the re-upholstering - those arms must've taken a huge amount of effort. Also love your resourcefulness with the body pillows - I wouldn't have thought of that! Agree on the fabric choice though; something with more weight would've been a better choice. I say enjoy it for a few years, and when you're ready to change it up, you'll know what to do next time to make it even better! And besides, if you love it, who cares what we think? LOL. Great effort.

As a long-time Torontonian and current St. Lawrence area resident, I disagree with the comments above that it's a tourist trap, overpriced, and that no locals shop there. Your impressions are so off, I wonder if you've actually visited it?? While it IS crowded, the prices and quality and well-worth it. Amazing cheeses, fresh cut flowers for a song, home baked goods, and those fabulous bagels are well worth the trip. Not everything is locally grown - true - but I'd rather support a family butcher than another mega big-box food retailer. The Market is vibrant, diverse, and a fun morning well spent. Love when Toronto is represented in AT! Thanks!

Love it! I love Etsy for this very reason, and you're supporting local artists. Win win!

Love! From the orange door, to the orange stair runner, to the skylights and MCM treasures throughout - I love it all! And of course your animals make this tour that much more enjoyable!

Wow - love, love, love! One of my favourite tours yet. So cozy and looks bigger than it's 650 sq ft. Well done!
