Name: Carly
Location: Calgary, Alberta, Canada
We have a busy house with twin 4 year old daughters, 3 cats and many hobbies for both my husband and I. My decorating style mixes Ikea for its affordability with vintage farmhouse finds for interest and character.
Although our house is small, 1150 sq ft (plus a basement), I am a little OCD so everything has its place. I've taken a small house and gave it an affordable vintage farmhouse style that is still family friendly and highly organized.
Thanks, Carly!

That winged cat thing over the bed would give me nightmares.
I want those lights in the kitchen.
Hahaha! @moofle I was thinking the same thing! Although the rest of the room is completely adorable. The little owl pillow makes up for the somewhat creepy angel-kitty. :)
What is the paint color in the living room? It's the perfect greige.
I also like the pillows in the living room. Perfect amount of color for that room.
Speaking of the living room...I'd like to know how she keeps the white sofa and chairs so fresh and clean with cats and kids roaming around!
LOVE the winged cat thing
I also love the winged cat. It's hilarious!
I want a house tour on this place! The kitchen alone already won me over!
The kitchen looks pretty dreamy. Tour! Tour!
Very expected (aside from the winged cat), which means only means she's nailed it perfectly! I would love to see more.
how did you get your hands on one of those aritzia cats?!
Family friendly? A white couch? Really? ...
White = bleach friendly
i would call a slipcovered couch family friendly.
I want a winged cat!
I would have to bury the cat or have nightly nightmares. That is one scary cat. Don't know what's worse - the cat or clowns.
I'm on board with a complete tour. Great warm feeling to the spaces shown. Your daughters must adore their room (angel cat, how cute is that?!). Well Done.
The winged cat is absolutely hilarious.
very sweet. The white couches are perfect for a busy family. When my kids were younger, just take them off, throw them in with some clorox and any stains just vanished. And no problems with fading. Just perfect. Love the cat too btw...
