Sara Fitz is an artist I started following over the past year who has such a simple, but captivating aesthetic. Her collection of charming watercolor stationary, wrapping papers and art prints encapsulate all of the New England vibes. I recently got hooked on her wrapping papers like this boat and tote bag which makes the […]

Although peony season is in full swing, I can’t seem to get enough of lilacs. Not only do these flowers smell incredible, but I love how pretty they look cascading over a simple white vase. Lilacs can almost tangle over one another so I like to lay them out on a piece of newspaper and […]

It’s no secret I LOVE fresh flowers, but I have found that a good vase can really impact the look of the overall arrangement. Whether it is clear glass, basic ceramic or something a little more fancy – having a few great options on hand can help even the simplest florals look better. When we […]

One of my favorite things about having a blog is getting to collaborate on projects with other bloggers and creatives. Ya’ll know by now that I live for a beautiful tablescape and pretty florals, so I jumped at the chance to work with Jen Noridine of Freckles on Fillmore. A few weeks ago she hosted […]
