So, you may be wondering, how did this become my life?

I'm going to real honest. Life for me was planned out.

This should not be a shocker, but I had a plan on what I wanted and where I wanted to go. Suddenly I found out I was having a baby and my world flipped upside down…. at least that is what I thought....


However, sometimes things happen for a reason because having a son gave me a new look at life, a fire to not settle and the fuel to want a better life for myself. It is funny how things that can seem so scary and was a complete detour route in my life plans can become something beyond my wildest dreams.

If you don't like something, change it. If you can't change it, change your attitude.”

 What Can I Say About Myself?

I am a Canadian born and raised! I like to say that I am a British Columbia girl living in a Ontario world but that is not all... I may know a lot about organizing homes & planning weddings and life but I'm no where close to perfect.

about me - shanice bannis

Honestly speaking.

Originally the reason why I created this blog was that I was a stay-at-home mom in need of a new activity to do on my spare time in between taking care of my son and my younger siblings.


It is an outlet and canvas for all my creative ideas, organizing strategies and wedding planning expertise with the bonus of allowing me to share everything I love and helps me in my life.

By no means am I perfect (nor is my life) but that is what makes it a journey! My life will forever be imperfectly perfect because each page of my life I am finding my way as a mom, sister, blogger and overall person. I decided I never settle for less than I could be. Removing the clutter in my life allowed to be able to have MORE time spent on things that I LOVE.
