THE JOY OF CREATIVITY LIVES AT THE GARDINER MUSEUM It is rare that something as common place as the Christmas tree, can bring up such expletives as, sublime, st...upendous, awe-inspiring and mysterious, but here we were at the Gardiner museum mouths agape with these thoughts streaming through our minds. Rare are the moments that we ( KA Magazine), are left surprised and utterly impressed; but at the recent launch of the Gardiner Museums 12 trees of Christmas we were blown away, and not by the Toronto winds. We were blown away by the more subtle wind of change driven by a force of nature personified in the thin frame of Ms. Dee Dee Eustace, curator of the 12 trees of Christmas, The Joy of Creativity 2015. From November 12th to January 3rd, 2016 the Gardiner Museum is home to Torontos most artistically driven Holiday Exhibition.

RULE #206 SO I WANT TO LIVE IN A HOTEL JUST LIKE ELLA LOUIS DOES. EVERY CLOSET SHOULD HAVE A LUGGAGE RACK, SHOE HORN, A SHOE SHINE CLOTH, A ROBE AND SLIPPERS. HOW FUN WOULD IT BE TO GO INTO YOUR CLOSET, PUT ON YOUR ROBE AND SLIPPERS AND PRETEND YOU ARE TRAVELING? DO NOT CALL ME A LOSER!

@tharchitect : Dee Dee with Colin and Justin. Great energy shooting today for #gamesofhomes! #tharchitect

Rule #205 WHETHER YOU HAVE A WALK-IN CLOSET OR NOT, ALL OF THESE RULES APPLY TO EACH CLOSET IN YOUR HOME. ORGANIZATION IS KEY: MAKE SURE EVERYTHING HAS A SPOT!

Rule #204 EDIT YOUR CLOSET! IF YOU HAVEN'T WORN IT IN THE PAST YEAR, YOU PROBABLY WON'T! I KNOW IT'S HARD, BUT TIME TO LET GO AND DONATE SOME PIECES TO A GREAT CHARITY!

Rule #203 LUGGAGE STORAGE IS A PIECE WE OFTEN FORGET. IT IS MOST IDEAL TO HAVE A SPACE IN YOUR CLOSET FOR EASY ACCESS WHEN PACKING FOR A LAST MINUTE GETAWAY! WHEN PACKING, GO THROUGH YOUR CLOTHES BY EACH DAY OF VACATION. IT WILL HELP WITH OVERPACKING. NO ONE LIKES TO GO OVER THE SCALE, EVER!

Rule #202 HANG YOUR BELTS WHEN YOU CAN. IF YOU SPACE CAN'T ALLOW THAT, ROLL YOUR BELTS INTO SPIRALS AND STORE THEM NEATLY IN A DRAWER.

Rule #201 WHEN DECIDING ON SHELF HEIGHT DON'T FORGET TO ACCOUNT FOR HIGH BOOTS AND PURSES. THESE SHELVES WILL BE A DIFFERENT DIMENSION THAT THE ONES YOU USE FOR YOUR PUMPS!

Rule #200 ENSURE YOU HAVE TWO LAUNDRY HAMPERS: ONE FOR DRY CLEANING THE OTHER FOR LAUNDRY DONE IN THE HOME. MAKE IT EASY FOR YOURSELF. LIFE IS COMPLICATED ENOUGH!

Rule #199 YOU DON'T SHOW YOUR UNDERGARMENTS IN PUBLIC, SO DON'T SHOW THEM IN YOUR CLOSET! YOUR BRAS, PANTIES, AND SOCKS SHOULD EACH HAVE AN INDIVIDUAL DRAWER BEHIND CLOSED DOORS.

Rule #198 DO YOU FOLD YOUR PANTS OR HANG THEM? THIS IS WHERE ERGONOMICS COMES INTO PLAY. MAKE SURE YOU ARE NOT REACHING TOO HIGH TO GRAB THE HANGER OR FOLDED PANT. IT SHOULD BE EASILY ACCESSIBLE ON FLAT FEET.

Rule #197 FOR DOUBLE HEIGHT HANGING, MAKE SURE YOU ACCOUNT FOR THE LENGTH OF YOUR GARMENTS. IF YOU ARE TALL, YOU MAY ONLY BE ABLE TO HAVE ONE HANGING RACK AND SOME ADDITIONAL SHELVING. YOU NEVER WANT YOUR PRECIOUS BOSS SUIT HITTING THE FLOOR!

Rule #196 MIRRORS ARE KEY IN A CLOSET. EVERYONE NEEDS A GLIMPSE OF THE WHOLE OUTFIT BEFORE STEPPING OUT ONTO THE TOWN! A 1" BEVELED FLOOR-LENGTH MIRROR SHOULD BE FIRST ON YOUR LIST IN CLOSET DESIGN!

Rule #195 DECORATIVE BOXES ARE GREAT FOR STORING YOUR JEWELRY, CUFF LINKS, SPARE CHANGE OR ANY OTHER SMALL OBJECTS YOU HAVE LAYING AROUND YOUR CLOSET.

Rule #194 DON'T FORGET ELECTRICAL OUTLETS IN YOUR CLOSET. THIS IS A MUST HAVE FOR CHARGING YOUR PHONE OR IPAD. WE LIVE IN A DIGITAL WORLD THESE DAYS, SO GET WITH THE TIMES!

Rule #193 LIGHTING, LIGHTING, LIGHTING! ANYWHERE YOU CAN PUT IT, DO IT! YOU WANT TO BE ABLE TO TELL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MIDNIGHT BLUE AND BLACK. PUT LIGHTING ABOVE THE SHELVES, RACKS, INSIDE OF CLOSET DOORS, EVERYWHERE!

Rule #192 COLOR CO-ORDINATE THE STACKING OF ALL T-SHIRTS. DIVIDE SHELVES WITH PROPER SHELF DIVIDERS IN ORDER TO PREVENT THE LEANING TOWER OF T-SHIRTS!

Rule #191 TO DISPLAY YOUR SHOES, ALLOW FOR SPACE FOR ONE SHOE DEPTH. PLACE SHOE SLOTS ON ANGLES FOR EASE OF USE AND VISUAL APPEAL.

Rule #190 CLOSET RULES : WHEN HANGING YOUR BEAUTIFUL COUTURE, A MINIMUM DEPTH OF 24" FOR HANGERS IS REQUIRED. YOU CAN ALWAYS LEAVE EXTRA ROOM IF YOU HAVE IT, ESPECIALLY IF SHOULDER PADS COME BACK IN!

Rule #189 A THROW FOR YOUR BED: NO ITCHY SCRATCHINESS! TRY CASHMERE FOR LUXURIOUS FEEL. THE THROW SHOULD BE THE WIDTH OF THE BED AND PLACED ALONG THE BOTTOM WHILE FLOWIG OVER THE EDGES.

Rule #188 PICTURE FRAMES : STAR FIRE GLASS - NO GREEN PEOPLE!

Rule #187 CANDLES SHOULD BE CLEAN AND FRESH. LILY OF THE VALLEY, GARDENIA OR LAVENDER CAN PROMOTE RELAXATION. DON'T HIDE THE MATCHES OR LIGHTER, YOU WILL NEVER FIND THEM. MAKE IT DECORATIVE.

Rule #186 TISSUE BOXES SHOULD BE RECTANGULAR. PERHAPS FABRIC TO MATCH OR BLEND WITH HEADBOARD. RECTANGULAR BOXES TAKE UP MORE ROOM, MORE BEAUTY. THE BEST BOXES ARE MY FASHION INSPIRED DESIGNER BOXES BY SCOTTIES.

Rule #185 ALWAYS HAVE A WASTE PAPER BASKET! NO DIRTY KLEENEXES ON THE BEDSIDE TABLE. YOU ALWAYS NEED TO THROW AWAY DRY CLEANING GARBAGE AND HANGERS. WIDE AND NARROW BASKETS BLEND AWAY AND ARE BEST FOR GARBAGE BINS IN BEDROOMS. WHAT HANGER FITS IN A CIRCLE?

Rule #184 ENSURE YOU HAVE UNDER BED STORAGE WITH WHEELS TO HIDE EXTRA PILLOWS WHEN SLEEPING. THEN THEY DON'T END US ON THE FLOOR AND GET DIRTY. KEEP IT CLEAN!

Rule #183 NO UNNECESSARY MOVEMENT: THE DUVET MUST COVER THE TOP MATTRESS AND HAVE AN EXTRA FLANGE WITH SEAMS SO THE DUVET SITS IN THE PERFECT SPOT. NO MORE PLAYING "FIND THE DUVET"!

Rule #182 MAKING A BED IS NOT EASY. YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO BOUCE A COIN OFF THE BOTTOM SHEET! USE A FLAT SHEET ON THE BOTTOM WITH HOSPITAL CORNERS, NOT ELASTIC FITTED SHEETS (THEY FOLD BETTER AND LOOK NICER WHEN IN A LINEN CLOSET). THE TOP SHEET SHOULD HAVE A DIFFERENT MATERIAL ON THE TOP FLANGE SO IT ALWAYS LOOKS IRONED, SAME AS THE EDGES OF THE CASES. ONCE THE TOP SHEET IS FOLDED, ENSURE YOU CAN SEE THE ENTIRE DETAIL. DON'T HIDE THE BEAUTY!

Rule #181 DOUBLE / TWIN BED RULES : THE PEASANTS ARE REVOLTING! 1 EURO PILLOW, 1 KING SHAM, 1 QUEEN PILLOW, 1 THROW PILLOW.

Rule #180 QUEEN BED RULES : FIND A QUEEN, OR AT LEAST A CINDERELLA PRINCESS THAT CAN BECOME A PRINCESS! 2 EURO PILLOWS, 2 QUEEN PILLOWS, 2 QUEEN SHAMS, 1 THROW PILLOW.

Rule #179 KING BED RULES : FIND A KING, OR A LEAST A PRINCE CHARMING! 3 EURO PILLOWS, 2 KING PILLOW SHAMS, 2 QUEEN PILLOW SHAMS, 1 THROW PILLOW.

Rule #178 A HEMSTITCH IS SO CLASSIC. IT'S A FABULOUS TRANSITION POINT. ADD A DOUBLE HEMSTITCH TO GET MORE FOR YOUR MONEY!
