The search is over, and what a search it’s been! The public has spoken, and we are
thrilled to announce Christina Dennis of The DIY Mommy as the winner of Western
Canada’s Next Home Stylist.
The search for Western Canada’s Next Home Stylist alongside Urban Barn and emi>Western Living magazine began this past February, and each entrant was required to submit an audition video showcasing their creativity and personality along with their application. Christina, along with the other two finalists (Ryan Massel of Calgary, AB and Tijana Popovic of Vancouver, BC) participated in three challenges in order to win a grand prize package valued at $10,000. The public voted for their stylist of choice on Facebook from June to August, and Christina came out as the resounding favourite!
Christina is a devoted mother of three, and has been blogging from her home in Stony Plain, Alberta since 2009. Since then, she has taken the Canadian blogging and social media scene by storm: in 2014, she won the title of “Best in Family or Parenting” Yeggie at the Edmonton New Media Awards and in 2015, she was named one of the “24 Most Awesome Parents on Social Media” by Today’s Parent magazine. All about staying on trend and in fashion without breaking the bank, Christina founded The DIY Mommy as a platform to explore, perfect and share crafts for babies, moms and homes while offering a sneak peek at her (oh-so-stylish) personal life – not to mention her biggest DIY project ever – building her custom home with her husband in 2013.
Next stop? The shows! Christina will be appearing on stage at the Calgary Home + Design Show on Saturday, September 19th, the Vancouver Home + Design Show on Friday, October 23rd and the Edmonton Fall Home Show on Sunday, October 25th. Be sure to keep an eye out for Christina’s swoonworthy vignettes at the shows! For more information, please visit www.nexthomestylist.com.

This past winter, we launched our search for the next big name
in design, entertaining and all things lifestyle, alongside Urban Barn
and WesternLiving magazine. We combed all of British Columbia and Alberta to
find the official spokesperson for this fall’s home and design shows in
Calgary, Edmonton and Vancouver - and found you, did we ever! From Vancouver to
Stony Plain, Calgary to Kamloops, Nanaimo to Medicine Hat, applicants came out
in droves to stake their claim to the title of Western Canada’s Next Home
Stylist, not to mention a prize package including a $1,000 Urban Barn shopping spree,
media exposure across two provinces, and much more.
And now, we’re ready to announce our three finalists.
Tijana Popovic from
Vancouver, British Columbia was a blogger at heart before she even knew what blogging
was! A born frugalista, Tijana is the Do-It-Yourself maven behind the blog, Frugal Living Adventures.
Tijana Popovic
Ryan Massel from
Calgary, Alberta is all about feeling FABULOUS. As the editor of I’m Mr Fabulous, Ryan shares stories of
travel, fashion, home décor, and great eats - all in totally fabulous style, of
course.

Christina Dennis from
Stony Plain, Alberta started her blog, The DIY Mommy, when she was having a tough
time finding free resources to make trendy baby clothing for her six-month-old
daughter. Today, she features crafts for babies, moms and homes while offering
a sneak peek at her personal life.
