DIY In Progress, Toronto, ON (2026)

2025 💜a year built from love, loss, and the stubborn act of creating anyway.

This year was not easy. It was heavy. It was heartbreaking. It carried the loss of people I loved deeply and there were days where simply showing up felt like the hardest thing I could do.

And yet… I kept choosing creative healing.

So many of these projects were fuelled by grief, by love, by memory. By the need to *do something* with all the feelings that didn’t know where else to go.

Creativity has a way of finding us …even in the darkest corners.

This year we: ✨ said goodbye to DIY Danie and stepped into DIY IN PROGRESS ✌️ ✨ carved out a studio that finally feels like home ✨ chased whimsy with stained glass, folk art, and fantasy-filled details ✨ created cabinets, storage, mirrors, dupes and pieces that hold stories… not just stuff
✨ we helped others love their magic and sprinkled whimsy all over Ontario!
✨ built a scullery from chaos and turned it into something sacred and moody 🖤

If this year taught me anything, it’s this: You don’t have to be okay to create something beautiful. You just have to keep going xx

Thank you for being here. For holding space, for supporting the evolution, and for loving the magic even when it was messy.
 Here’s to finding beauty in the broken, building through the hard stuff, and carrying all of it forward into 2026 xx

Love your magic. Always. 🖤✨

This room used to be my full-sized junk drawer 🫣And now… it’s officially transformed! ✨

Over the last 3 months, this room that I lovingly dubbed my scullery (aka pantry/laundry/utility room), has been completely renovated. We added a new ceiling, re-levelled the floors, hung new drywall in damaged areas, laid new flooring, painted, opened a wall and relocated the laundry access, custom built a laundry vanity (complete with tiled backsplash), custom built three utility cabinets, up-cycled an oak desk into my dream island, AND finished it all off with an IKEA pantry wall. *PHEW, I’M OUT OF BREATH!

It’s been a LONG three months, but taking my time allowed me to be intentional with every DIY decision, every build, and every detail. And honestly? That’s where the DIY MAGIC happens ✨ This room went from embarrassing to my favourite room in the house, and I am SO incredibly proud of this project. I’m extra grateful it all came together just in time for the holidays, because this space is finally ready to be used the way it was always meant to be.

Swipe right to see the befores (you’ve been warned 😅)
