Ted’s Tip No. 570

March 9, 2026

Small little arrangements that are all one color of blooms can be peaceful little respites for your eyes as well as your soul. Set them in unexpected places for your guests to enjoy too.

Just crazy! The amaryllis bulbs we sold at the shop in November still producing spectacular blooms. Absolutely had to be our Flower Friday post on this day. Everyone have a fab first weekend in March. X, Ted

All In The Details

March 5, 2026

Working away on my next book, about the design of our homes and tips to take away to create stylish spaces by the reader. While going through images this morning, ran across this one. Our bathroom redo at the guest house in New York. We found the recycled glass tile that both of us were crazy about. The bits of gray throughout handsome and it felt so good underfoot. Then we spotted the marble threshold. They went together but did not entirely match. Perfect! Small details that don’t always get noticed by everyone, but they are there. My eye catches them every time I enter the room, and tickles me to no end. Cheers to the details!

We have had a bird section of goods since both shops first opened. I have loved birds since I was a little kid. Being a shopkeeper allows me to enjoy and share that love with you all in many different forms. Be it a soap dish or a picture frame or a painting or many, many other ways we pay homage to the beauty of birds.
