How do I love this couch? Let me count the ways! Perfect spot for morning coffee & breakfast. Work from home office. Research & development. Library. Nap time. Apres Ski spot. Can even be a bed! What more could you want from a couch? Every airbnb I looked at in Europe has this couch. Now I know why!

Reflections on a new beginning. This past week we had the pleasure of moving our middle daughter across country and helping her and her roommates create a new home together in Colorado! It was so fun to reflect on our own experiences living in Colorado at her exact age! So excited for them and all the memories they will be making to reflect on when they are older!

This gifted mirror from @framemymirror is simply stunning! It is substantial and like no other arched mirror I have seen in any stores. Beautiful quality and gorgeous gold frame! I love that they have options to frame mirrors you already own (we’re coming for you frameless bathroom mirrors!) 10/10 would order mirrors from them again for clients and for our own homes!

Life is good! This light weight muslin blanket is perfect for Spring! Couch, end of bed, patio, boat… so many places I’m looking forward to using this beautiful throw from @officialfleececompany !

This Muslin Blanket made from 100% Muslin Cotton comes in a lot of other fun spring colors too! https://thefleececompany.com/products/the-muslin-blanket in gray

KT unboxed, put together and installed this fan completely by herself! It was really easy to put together and the instructions were great. She loves having a remote control (they can change fan settings from bed). They also like the multiple light color function (warm to cool) with dimability. And of course having the fan be able to go both direction and having multiple speeds is great. Looks great in their bedroom and really completes the space. Their old fan came with the house and this one is a fantastic upgrade!

A great feature of this fan is it has reversible fan blades. In winter you can also use it with your heating system to circulate warm air evenly in your space. A great year-round essential!

Are you a snack house or an ingredient house? I grew up in an ingredient house & my children would say the same! My brother & I still talk about making our own chocolate butter cream frosting in our kitchenaid when we wanted something sweet.
We are also a Kitchenaid family & use it almost daily! When we saw we could give our stand mixer a glow up with a new wooden bowl we didn’t hesitate to say “yes, please!” We like to have two bowls for our kitchenaid when baking and making multiple recipes & this one reminds us of the wooden bowl kitchenaid we were all coveting last year (just me?) We couldn’t justify the price tag then since we already own a kitchenaid at home & at the lake. But a new bowl? That we could handle!
Homemade 3 ingredient gluten free protein bagels & olive cream cheese were the first thing we couldn’t wait to make in our new bowl! 🥯🫒Comment “BOWL” for the link & “BAGELS” for the recipe!

Loving these new finds for our lake house kitchen! A new wooden bowl for our kitchenaid- love having two bowls for my mixer and this one is beautiful! Love this bread box as well and the new spring towels, trivet, plates and bowl too! Plus the duck & bunny bowl? Too cute!

Craving spring flowers? So was KT! She is loving her new bedding gifted from @jersylinen ~ soft, cozy, & colorful the perfect spring refresh she was looking for in her bedroom! Just what she needed while we wait for the flowers to bloom in New England after one of the longest snowiest winters. It even snowed again last week!

A few people asked about our bed frame, bed & bedding after we recently updated our primary bedroom. We are still loving our @thuma bed & @saatva mattress & @gokotta.us bamboo sheets we bought for ourselves a few years ago! When we updated our room we cleared everything out so we could deep clean the entire room and change out our rug. Luckily our @thuma bed frame is easy to take apart and put back together! Only 2 screws in the entire bed. Love the gorgeous Japanese joinery on the bed and the simple modern design. The @saatva mattress is organic and comfortable and gives us peace of mind and our most comfortable restorative sleep. The @gokotta.us sheets are bamboo, so soft and cooling and my favorite sheets EVER! With the off center window above our bed we decided to go with a wall of curtains from @homerilla_official 100% room darkening for the best sleep of our lives! How about you? What are some of your must haves in your bedroom?

Simple spring tray styling with our new classic pieces from @Alice Lane ~ love how this Bubble Candle Dish + these Vintage Ribbed Candle Holders look like antiques.
The bubble dish is their #1 bestseller- and was designed after a vintage ashtray (I think my Gee Gee had one just like it!) Perfect gift with a candle or could be used for earrings on bedside table.
Love that the Ribbed Candle Holders can hold tapered candles or be flipped over to style votives. So stylish and versatile!

Loving this cardigan! The scallop detail is perfect! The black one is currently 14.99!! Sized up bc I wanted to be able to wear like a jacket if it gets cooler at night. Purse is perfect for travel- interior zipped pocket for passport, can wear crossbody or shorten strap. Love the strap detail & comes in other colors too! #scallopedge #cardigan #perfectpurse #springtravel #vacationoutfits #springoutfits

My dad used to say "If you don't like the weather in New England, wait a day!" Yesterday snow & ice covering everything. Today? Sunshine, birds & walking in a sweatshirt! Everyone asks about this dog lead when we are walking our pups - love the collar too- has her name and our phone # on collar

Craving green as our world outside is still blanketed in snow! What that means for decor? Lots of faux & real houseplants taking center stage, a spring candle burning, pillows, blankets & kitchen towels that have touches of green in them, the curtains wide open as we let in all the light as we move closer to daylight savings this weekend! Can’t wait for the sun to set later & to get my hands on my gardens once all the snow melts. What are you looking forward to with the coming of spring? See something you like?

Yes, please. We got a timed coffee pot a decade ago and we’ve never looked back! We even got one at the lake cottage. We used to french press our coffee but waking up to the smell of coffee? Nothing better. I swear it works like @nectarsleep for me but with smell slowly rising me from slumber. I immediately open our curtains and let the daylight & my husband brings me coffee in bed. Every single day! Thanks hon!

Yep, it’s still winter in New England! How about where you live?! Temps are warming up here but snow is in the forecast!

Serene snowy views out our windows while we transformed this bedroom into the sanctuary we wanted it to be. Our primary bedroom project from start to finish. We cleared everything out including taking out our bed and vacuumed and cleaned room from top to bed. Then we made intentional choices about what we needed for our bedroom to function as the sanctuary we want it to feel like. A new rug, cozy room darkening curtains, the prettiest pillow and the softest blanket was all we added. The results completely changed the feel & vibe of our room in one afternoon while New England dumped 18 inches of snow on us. Did you get snow this winter? Are you ready for Spring to be here?

Recipe for our perfect bedroom:

rug- @wayfair
bed frame - @thuma.co
mattress- @saatva
sheets - @gokotta.us
comforter & shams - @amazon
blanket - @battilo_home
lumbar pillow - @fabdivinehome
