Just a few scenes I happened upon by chance while on Nantucket last month…a bit of good luck and fortune in capturing some wonderful island scenes.

An ode to summer of sorts as we head into the long holiday weekend.

Oh summer.  Where did you go?  How is it already September?

What are your plans this holiday weekend?  Any of these island scenes appeal to you?  What do you think of the Tommy Hilfiger house exterior?

Anyhooo…Happy Friday!  Happy Labor Day Weekend!

    The image of the swan – the gracefulness of its presence – set against the wicker texture of the black table – is really quite stunning. The beauty of nature – the simplicity of the setting.

    Thank you for sharing images – enjoy the holiday!

    The houses are beautiful, and hydrangeas are one of my all-time favorite flowers…just gorgeous! They are no longer blooming here in Texas (too hot).

    Have a great Labor Day weekend!

Starting the week with good energy, a little confiStarting the week with good energy, a little confidence, and absolutely no reason to wait for Friday to feel fabulous. 😉
Try these little things to lift your mood today:
✨ Put on the playlist that makes you happy
☕ Grab your favorite coffee
👗 Wear the outfit that makes you feel confident
☀️ Step outside and soak up some sunshine
🤍 Or simply give yourself a few minutes to reset
Good energy doesn’t always have to come from something big. Sometimes, you can create it yourself.
Here’s to a feel-good Monday! 🖤

Heidi Caillier Design took this historic San Francisco home and layered floral wallpaper, striped drapery, checked linens, and antique textiles room after room without a single one feeling overdone. Marble mantels, gilt mirrors, brass fixtures, and warm wood floors do the quiet work of holding it all together.
This is what happens when “more” is chosen on purpose.
Save this for the masterclass in mixing prints. 🔖

A great bathroom isn’t just functional, it’s the one room in the house that’s entirely yours. The stone you choose, the way light hits the fixtures, the tub you actually want to sit in. These are the ones that get it exactly right.
Save this for your next bathroom renovation inspo and follow for more. 🖤

Happy Labor Day! 🇺🇸 Here’s a little throwback toHappy Labor Day! 🇺🇸
Here’s a little throwback to a Labor Day dinner party I hosted a few years ago, and honestly, we’d still do it this way. 🥂✨
Hosting this Labor Day? Keep it simple:
• Set the table with one statement detail + neutral basics
• Choose a menu you can prep ahead so you’re not cooking all night
• Add candles or flowers to make the table feel special
• Serve everything family-style for a more relaxed feel
• Don’t overthink it. The best dinners are the ones where everyone lingers a little longer 🤍
Save this for your next dinner party and send it to someone who’s hosting! 🍽️

The bouclé sofa isn’t a trend, it’s a commitment. The bouclé sofa isn’t a trend, it’s a commitment. Soft, sculptural, and impossible to walk past without wanting to sit down. The rooms that get it right pair it with something unexpected: a dramatic mural, an antique screen, a city skyline, a hand-laid mosaic floor.
