// On My Wildchild Mind...

When you have a serious bond with cranberries, you want to keep them as close as possible, in and out of weekly salads included. One night, recently, I had a dream where I was in a gorgeous cranberry orchard having the time of my life, laughing and dancing away while enjoying some sweet cranberries. On awakening and remembering, I wondered if I could grow a small cranberry plant at home, and as it turns out, I can... this is very exciting news! #when-you-dream-in-fruits...

// Have a Peaceful Weekend.~

'Easily a month I can live with, on repeat, for the rest of my magical life. What a lovely step away and escape to regroup and refuel with our new blossoms and buds, —all while wrapping up a plethora of paper for our longer term. I didn't plan it, but needed it and feel so much the better for it. A month of calm, quiet, and cordial engagement will never be overrated. The many shades of a month that was after the jump... Have a loving weekend. ~xx

// Chair Obsessed!

I am totally smitten with the design and style this long-haired sheepskin chair and it's well— very me, —very me indeed, especially with being fire-resistant! So much so I gave her full bragging rights with a whole post to embody the entirety of her 360° beauty. I've even added her to my wish list so I know I will be receiving her as a gift because I never ask for much and she celebrates minimalism with soft grace and alluring style. I've had my eye on her since early last month and I'm still totally obsessed with her, as is. It's good to wait things out so you know for sure and I'm having all the feels here and all good vibes. Yes, yes, and yes!

// A Refreshing Muse Collection

One of the many 'refreshing to the eye and mind' unusual vessels from Jonathan Adler's Porcelain Muse Collection: the Marcel Vase, giving a nod to artist, Marcel Duchamp:  "I have forced myself to contradict myself in order to avoid conforming to my own taste." Each piece validates the less is more principle and holds its own as is. Perfect for the minimalist as a beautiful (and functional) work-desk/ side table accessory. More favourites below...

// Holiday Metallics: Five Ways to (Quietly) Indulge

Softer metallic looks we can enjoy without going full-blown golden blonde. A few decades ago, I came home a blonde and yes, a full head of blonde. We know how late teen years can go... and well, the hazelnut-ash colour choice stayed on a tad too long while having fun-overload at the hair salon that fateful Friday. I totally freaked out as the curlers came rolling out (with immediate plans to return early next morning to resolve). It was more than enough to make the boys playing hockey further down our street drop their sticks and start running up the street for a closer close-up, that evening...
