Happy weekend! We were excited to get a little tour of the new Portland West Elm this week and were so happy to see a few of our favorite Maine businesses and craftspeople featured in the store’s local section – Chloe May Brown, More & Co, Weft & Warp, Portland General, Katharine Watson, and more.

Always happy to see our friends at Brook There get the attention they deserve, here in a round-up of sustainable sleepwear.

Ice Cream Sandwich Test. YES.

Our trip to France was five years ago this week, so I felt extra nostalgic while browsing these seven must-see places in Provence and this photo tour of Le Mas des Poiriers.

If returning to Dorset soon isn’t in the cards, perhaps we can swing a trip to New York to see this Maira Kalman exhibit?

A few favorite recent home tours: more of Rita Konig’s home in London, John Robshaw’s country house in CT, a colorful home in Vermont, a five-story townhouse in Brooklyn, and this amazing NY apartment.

And two eye-catching Art of the Menu features: Australia’s Lazy-Su and Sardella in St. Louis.
