Jokes aside, I learned the hard way….don’t ever include anything in your proposal that you cannot live with. For some reason or another the one that were on the fence about is almost always the one the client will pick. It must be a Murphy’s Law or something! Anyone else can relate? #designerproblems #interiordesignlife #interiordesigner #funny #interiordesigntrends

I literally did not sign up to be a hockey mom….I don’t mind but I found it daunting….all the etiquette that nobody teaches you and all the equipment that you’re supposed to know how to put on! It is a bit of a steep learning curve. 🫠 I recently found myself a bit lost trying to put on Charlie’s equipment for her since @shelbylui usually is the one to do it. There is an actual order of events or wearing I guess it is called. Once the order is mucked then something (or everything) is uncomfortable. Wish someone had told me so I am telling you now. Save this for if your kid wants to play hockey and you’re a clueless parent like me 😂😭 #hockeymom #hockeygirl #lifewithkids #hockeykids #funnykids

Creating illustration of Phyllis’s @pippylui beautiful house✍️🏠✨ Everything is drawn by hand, including the trees, using special brushes. My process always starts with building volume and depth for the tree canopy, and only then I refine the details and add light accents✨ I personally love a hand-drawn look more than using pasted images — it makes each sketch unique and full of character. At the same time, for faster workflows, combining different techniques can also be useful🙂 In my teaching, I show all approaches, and my students choose the one that fits their task best. If you’re looking for a unique, one-of-a-kind sketch for your project, feel free to message me in DM or email: kate@mysketch.studio And if you’d like to learn how to create sketches like this, leave a comment “course”, and I’ll send you more information on where to start. Keep drawing!✍️🙂

Renovations are tough on couples. These are just some of the horrible things that were said to me through the process. I think the last one is the worst. Thoughts? 🚩🚩🚩 #relationship #coupleshumor #marriagehumor #relatable #couplescomedy

As an interior designer, I care about the lines, the finishes, the way the light moves through a space. But as a mom and someone who actually lives in homes, I care about how it feels at 7am. And 9pm. And on the messy in between days. Clean lines. Warm light. Timeless details that aren’t just beautiful. They’re livable. Luxury isn’t about being untouchable. It is about creating a space that supports the life you’re building inside it. Save this for your future home 🤍 PS: The cameraman made a cameo…did you see him? 😅 #interiordesigninspiration #modernluxuryinterior #housetour #homeswithsoul #livableluxury

What my husband would love me to wear What my kids think I should wear 😂 What I wish I could wear And what I actually choose now… Somewhere along the way comfort started to win. Because these days, if it’s not comfortable… it’s not happening. Funny how your style changes over time.Less about impressing, more about feeling like yourself 🩷 Which one is your fave?

Happy Erniversary ❤️‍🩹 It’s been 11 years, and I still miss that little soul who watched me and Shelby grow up. Erny was our first Jack Russell, gentle, loyal, and full of quiet love. He taught us patience, softness, and how much love can live in such a little body. Wish you could have met the kids. They would have loved you! We still miss you Erny 🩵

Is it me or does it seem like it takes FOREVER to move…though I do admit we have a lot of stuff. I think there are 10 bins of decor items alone 😬 #timetopurge #movingpains #movingday #designerlife

What you don’t see… is everything behind this. The time, the decisions, the constant refining! And somewhere along the way, it became our home 💗 That’s what makes this one feel different.

As an interior designer, I always ask clients how they want their space to feel and over the years have learned to interpret their responses to create a space that is uniquely theirs. But as a mom to a neurodivergent child, I’ve learned to go deeper…Things that may not matter to a “typical” person are different…How does this surface feel under your hands?…Is this light too harsh?…Is there a sound you wish you could turn off? Design isn’t just visual. It’s sensory and emotional. And the best designers don’t just focus on what looks good. They focus on what their clients need. #neurodivegent #neurodivergentkids #designing #designingforall #importantconversations #lifewithkids #interiordesign #advicefordesigners #designingequality

We put off so many things in life because we’re scared. I put off having kids for years because I was terrified of it. I avoided public speaking because I thought I’d embarrass myself. And for the longest time, I held back from posting on social media because I was afraid of being judged. Fear is sneaky like that….It convinces you to wait… until you’re “ready.” But the truth is, most of us never feel fully ready. Sometimes I wish I could go back and do things differently. But I also believe life unfolds the way it’s meant to even when we don’t understand it yet. All we can really control is the story we choose going forward. So I’m choosing to be braver, to try things before I feel ready and to just appreciate the journey as it unfolds. To every woman who is still becoming who she’s meant to be, I see you and you are doing better than you think. Happy International Women’s Day. 🩷 #selflovejourney #selfhealing #selfawareness #mylife #momlife

I actually haven’t heard this from a client in a long time but this trend was way too fun not to try it. Building a career from nothing takes time…years of learning, experimenting, trusting your gut, and hoping the right clients trust in you and the process too. I’m so grateful for every client who took a chance, believed in the vision, and let me do what I do best. Experience doesn’t always look the same on paper… sometimes it’s built through real projects, real people, and a lot of behind the scenes work. And sometimes it spans a few centuries 😅 #interiordesignjourney #throughtheages #interiordesignhumor #designerlife #interiordesigner

POV: you’re running late… again… but still manage to get the photos! From school pickup chaos to suddenly knowing our angles 😂 This was actually such a fun outing. Especially because you can just walk into your own private room at Selfie Lab and take photos at your own pace. No people watching, no pressure….just us being chaotic in really good lighting And the one hour slot? We got so many photos and still had time to spare! Honestly such a good family activity (even when everyone is slightly unhinged after school 😂) Thank you @selfielab.ca for having us ✨ Would you try this with your kids? #lifewithkids #momlife #familyfun #vancouvermoms #narratortrend

Beware of the contractor friend……😅 As someone who has been in the business for 20 years. This is one that I have heard countless times and unfortunately I have also picked up the pieces countless times. For some reason more often than not it just doesn’t work out. Friends always mean well but price isn’t everything. There is also timelines to meet, accountability and quality. Make sure you take that into consideration when picking a contractor. If it is one your designer is recommending then often times that person has been tried and vetted for you through their past projects. They already know if the contractor is responsive, if they have good trades, and if they are accountable. Consider this your gentle warning 😊 #constructionnightmares #interiordesignhumor #designerlife #clientproblems #contractorproblems

On the Eve of my last birthday in my 40s, I am feeling my mortality and having a lot of thoughts running through my mind. Another chapter that will be closing soon enough and it makes me antsy, nervous. I have friends that are getting ready to throw in the towel….to retire. And others who are getting sick. I don’t feel like I have accomplished enough at times so want to do more but yet in contrast some days I am mentally tired. Growing up my typical Chinese father often told us we were worthless and not useful. I think that has fueled me all these years to try to prove him wrong. Unfortunately he died years ago so I will never know if he became proud. I am determined not to let my kids ever know that feeling of not being enough. For them I am going to make a list of 50 things to do before I turn 50. Some goals can be small and some big but it is all for fun anyways. Help me add to it! That’s a lot to think up 😅 Thank you for following my journey! Talk again soon! #50before50list #midlifecrisis #childhoodtrauma #momlife #generationaltrauma #roadtosuccess #midlifeempowerment
