We are so happy to welcome Julie Williams Driemel to the blog today to share her lovely home with us!
"This space was a pretty good blank canvas when we bought it. While it's been home from day one, after two years worth of projects, it feels so us and has become super functional to fit our lifestyle. I love the bright windows with big mountain views as well as the mix of pretty little bits gathered from thrift stores, our travels, gifts, and special family hand-me-downs. Our decor is such a mishmash of items we've gathered over the years, which I love. Nearly everything has a story of some sort – clippings of plants that have been passed down through both our families for years and years, colourful vases that were collected for our wedding, the big long shelf in Morris' room is constructed from a set of retired vintage jumping skis my dad snatched from his local ski club, beach treasures we've gathered while visiting Adam's hometown on Vancouver Island, several pieces of art and wall hangings from family members [the tapestry above the mantle was a wedding gift to my great grandparents from family members in Sweden shortly after moving to Canada], the table and chairs are the same set that Adam grew up with, a vintage camera collection that my mother-in-law keeps adding to, the red mid-century rocking chair my mum bought for us…"
"The latest project around here has been Baby Mo's room – it's such a bright and cheery space. It was important to me that it be a part of the house that I would love hanging out in…I've been logging some serious hours in there since he was born back in January."
"Our home is small and modest, but it's all we need and I can't wait to watch our little family grow here. We are so lucky to live in the awesome community of Canmore, in the Canadian Rocky Mountains…the outdoor surroundings are a huge part of our lifestyle."

Nope. There just aren’t any words to describe how PERFECT this home is! #ALLTHEHEARTEYES
I loved the pops of color and specially this wall picture of the woods! For now I live in a rental, but as soon as I get my own place, I’d love to have a pic picture of my home town on the wall just like that!

Barbaridades!
The prints (both pretty perfect for a mini mountain man!) in Morris’ room came from Urban Outfitters.
I love the hodge podge of colors and the greens. So homey!
Favorited the last pict, but lovee all the detail. thank your for share us this beautiful home…
At Home With is my absolute favorite feature on ABM! It’s always so inspiring to see these amazing, creative spaces!

I love all the plants! Unfortunately, all my plants keep dying. Except the succulents. They thrive but I don’t know why… Maybe I keep my place too hot…

What a GORGEOUS home! I love all the little details, and the big print above the crib makes me swoon! ♡
Carley – this couch is by Gus Modern, a Canadian company! They have retailers all over the country…we got ours from Crave in Calgary. It’s the PERFECT piece for our living room.
Hey Corey, the red rocker is a restored midcentury piece, it doesn’t have any designer markings on it that I’ve noticed. I’d suggest keeping your eyes open at thrift stores with the mindset of perhaps refinishing it!
Hey Amy, the woodland tapestry in Mo’s room is from Urban Outfitters…it’s definitely my favourite wall in the whole home.
Thank you SO much love in our little home!
Isn’t’ this rocker awesome?! I had the same mindset about all the traditional glider chairs I’d seen for babies’ rooms. We tracked it down at a rad little shop in Victoria, BC that collects and refinishes mid-century pieces…such a good find! I admit, it turned out to not be the most comfy for long nursing sessions in the early days…but now that we’ve got our groove, it’s perfect!
Hey Briel, our amazing couch is by Gus Modern, we purchased it from a shop called Crave in our nearby city. It was a bit of a splurge […by my thrifty standards] but SO worth it!
Lovely space..loved everything, so cozy and colorful.. loves the bedroom gallery wall…and camera collection in the living room..
