Who remembers these at Christmas? I remember sitting on mom's lap looking through the Eatons catalog and picking out the big tins of candy for the holidays. It was always a big part of my Christmas, especially the excitement of receiving our mail order package... an early Christmas present. 😊❤😊

Floorcloths or “Oylcloths” are first mentioned in Britain at the beginning of the eighteenth century. They were painted by humble house painters and often offered in the classical designs used for marble floors by the fashionable architects of the day.

💥 New Article 💥

Although choosing wood shingles may cost more, they more often are still the option that provides more value. And because the cost difference is smallest on small dwellings or tiny areas such as dormers, they are a great opportunity to have your dollar go further in the value it adds to your home. It is also a value that makes your home more attractive, makes coming home from work more pleasant, lifts your neighbourhood with character and cheer. In the example above the added expense was expected to be just a couple hundred. And because it was only the shingles nearest the roof deck that were poor, wholesale replacement wasn’t needed and the cost in fact was just slightly less than the silly vinyl.

Their contractor warned wood shingles was more expensive and yet also, not as good. Their contractor was a coward. That last one was my assertion, and it still is!

Ingledale House | A Hidden Gem

We came across a foot bridge over a small pond to the wonderous splendor that lay before us… one of the oldest wood framed houses in Ontario (referencing what is now the north red clapboard kitchen ell), built in 1815 by John and Magdalena Inglehart, who emigrated to Saltfleet Township (now Stoney Creek, Ontario), in 1798 with several other Pennsylvania German settlers.

The jewel in the crown of this splendid building is the 12 over 12 sash windows flanking the central door (where in most Neoclassical design would favour sidelights) with the second floor duplicate…
