Flurries are swirling outside my office window as we anticipate another winter storm here on the East Coast. I am definitely all in for staying in to catch up on some reading by the fire!
We just had our first weekend opening of the year at Chartreuse & co. and I really enjoyed finishing and staging my new space on the main floor of the barn. A lot of projects are starting to pile up as winter transitions into spring, but with that the opportunity to think outside of the box and expand creative ideas follows. Travel plans are back in play this year both for work and vacation and one particular trip on the horizon is my favorite city in the world - so with Paris on my mind, I had to include the photo above taken from our last visit there in 2019.
I hope that you are finishing the week off strong - bon weekend!

As we slowly make our way through renovating the bathrooms in our house, I found the perfect customizable refillable bottles from The Polished Jar.
