In my cart

Only a million things! Especially with Christmas around the corner. I keep a growing Keep list (Google Keep).

What a life “Little Edie” Beale had! Such a beauty. This book is full of images of her youth. Love her style, even when she was confined to a dilapidated house. If it’s a wooden clog/mule, it’s highly likely I’m going to want it! Love the contrasting brown and black of these No. 6 clogs. I’m very into buckety bags right now. The beads are a fun touch to my outfits!

This NuFace microcurrent device. I hope Santa drops one under the tree. I have gua sha’d for a few years now but ready to up my lymphatic drainage game with one of these babies. Is it wrong to want a beauty product based primarily on the packaging? I think not! Good design should extend to our everyday objects. We are more often making our surroundings bland, lazy, and thoughtless (modern architecture, white washed open concept HGTV spaces, minimalist everything, etc). I’m all for beautiful packaging! As I’ve gotten older, I’ve switched to cream blushes and there’s no going back. So excited to try Kjaer Weiss’s line of products. I am terribly in lust for one of these Ingo Maurer Japanese crushed paper lamps. “Lampampe” is pricey so if you’re into repros, here is a budget-friendly option.

I always want beaucoup design books to learn from and decorate with! Michael Diaz-Griffith is new to me, but he was at Antiques at the Gardens this year and I saw him signing his new book, The New Antiquarians. The cover caught my eye and I promptly added to cart when I got home. The voyeur in me loves to peer inside the homes of others and design books provide an excellent means to do so!

Forever admirer of the work of others’ hands. I follow Claire on Instagram and really enjoy her Raku-fired “wonky” handbuilt pots. I also follow Alexandra, ElConsulado, who sells ceramics and textiles from makers in Spain. There are so many wonderful ceramic fruit objects! Love them all, especially these pomegranates.

Lastly, semi-precious stone encrusted everyday objects. Pictured here is a serving knife, a compact (Josef Hoffman, 1912), and a trash bin.
