I’m happy to report that we are seeing the light after nearly 2 years of on and off again renovations at our Sonoma property! The Northern California fires and the pandemic have been significant obstacles…
Second to the daily chain bracelet, the Tila bead bracelet is my favorite summer accessory. Not to mention they are insanely easy to make. Miyuki Tila beads are little square and rectangular glass beads and literally come in every color you can possibly imagine, which makes playing around with all kinds of amazing color combinations very addictive.
I’ve recently committed myself to a cross stitching project and there’s honestly no turning back now. The idea is to sit and stitch just one flower a day, using Carolyn Manning’s Stitch Along pattern. Despite getting over the intimidation of beginning a project of this extent and making a handful of mistakes to start, I’m totally hooked.

I love this dishwasher safe stoneware from Danish brand OYOY. The collection comes in the most perfect rose, clay and white shades.
I get asked all the time about the best flower delivery service. I love Farmgirl Flowers, who sources their flowers ethically by making sure to support farms who pay living wages, provide medial benefits and avoid harmful chemicals. And they deliver nationwide!
I would buy this blouse in every color if I could. It’s lightweight and not overly billowy. I’m anxious for warm weather so I can wear this on the regular!
I love this CLEAN makeup line from make-up artist Gucci Westman. It has just the necessities I need: foundation, bronzer and blush, with just the most perfect, barely-there-but-there look.
Yes to this collar sweater!! Especially since the collar is removable and can be worn over other sweaters and/or cardigans.
Seriously crushing on gingham these days and I love the idea of mismatching these linen napkins from John Derian.

My new favorite pant, love the drop rise which means you can wear it tight and high waisted or low and loose.
Crushing on these gingham merino wool loafers that wear like slippers. Bonus: they’re made from repurposed plastic water bottles!
You can never have enough . . .
It’s always hit or miss with cashmere and the never ending saga of: will it or won’t it pill? I’ve worn my first cashmere sweater from Madewell and happy to report that after multiple wears, no pilling!
Love this wicker tree skirt, which conceals your average plastic tree stand!
Stone and Strand is my go-to for simple, fine gold jewelry, including reasonably priced mini hoops, studs and ear cuffs.

Honestly, is there anything happier than daisies?! I was desperately needing a dose of happy over the weekend and whipped up a few colorful bracelets to soothe the soul. Making daisy chains from seed beads might look complicated but honestly, it’s not difficult at all! It’s a cinch as long as you have the right materials. I dare you to stop at one, it’s that addicting. Just be sure to pay attention to the size of the beads and stringing cord before you purchase the supplies.
Israeli artist Shira Barzilay brings a unique perspective to photographs with her incredibly dynamic doodles. It’s amazing how she’s able to inject so much movement and life into an image with a seemingly simple, continuous stroke of a paintbrush. How inspiring it is to be able to extract beauty from anonymity. Honestly, beautiful.
How am I just now discovering the beauty of Welsh blankets? The vibrant colors and bold patterns are what drew me to them and after learning a little more about their heritage, I love them that much more. The woolen industry, in the 19th century, was so integral in the Wales region that the tradition of blanket weaving became a generational craft, brining families together.
