those canadians....

i have a bit of a design crush on samantha pynn. she had a show on hgtv called "pure design" that i loved.

but alas. she is a canadian and the us hgtv hasn't picked up her third season.

everything she does is eco-conscious. she re-purposes old furniture, only uses green materials when they are new and shops local. and she makes it look really really good.

in the two seasons i have watched, she has shown some great looking rooms with a little mix of traditional and modern, old and new.


there are a few canadians that i admire... more on those another day. i have come to the conclusion that they just really know their design stuff up there.





she does masculine and feminine just as easily, shown in the photo above and below.

i have her show saved on my dvr just in case, one day, our hgtv decides they want to pick her back up.
