Weekend Notes
Happy holiday weekend! Hope you’re enjoying every minute of it and soaking up the last bits of summer before we embrace fall in all its glory. Around here, we’ve been swimming like crazy, hanging with my brother who’s visiting from St. Louis, grilling fajitas and corn on the cob, walking around the city, and I […]
What Are Your Goals for Fall?
More than any other season, autumn just has that feeling that distinguishes it from the rest of the year. Maybe it’s the invigorating chill in the air, or the memories of going back to school, but fall always makes me feel extra motivated and (like Robin Williams’ prep school students in Dead Poets Society) ready to Carpe Diem. If […]
8 Easy Ways to be Kind Today

12 Words of Wisdom We’d Tell Our High School Selves

8 Ways to Make Your Bed Non-Basic
Editor’s note: Ever since Rebecca Atwood‘s “Living With Pattern” landed on our doorstep, it feels like my design sensibilities have done a complete 180. I’ve had varying versions of mostly white bedding for years and have always loved it, but flipping through the vibrant, pattern-filled pages of this book has me craving color and texture in a […]
Weekend Notes
Happy weekend! We’re enjoying a cozy one at home, since Austin’s been flooded with rain for the past week and it doesn’t appear to be letting up. That means multiple coffee refills, veggie scrambles, painting with Phoebe, a midday barre class, organizing the pantry, and researching some upcoming travel. Did I mention that I love […]
Weekend Notes
Morning, y’all! Hope everyone’s had a lovely weekend so far.

We threw Phoebe a fourth birthday party with a […]
