This Week’s Finds

Hi friends! I hope you’re enjoying a peaceful weekend, wherever you are! Here in the States we’ll be observing Columbus Day (and now Indigenous Peoples’ Day ) tomorrow and so far we couldn’t have asked for lovelier Fall weather. The temperatures have been soft enough during daytime to allow pleasurable nature walks and some light gardening activities. Yesterday we took a stroll in town and I managed to photograph one of my favorite houses near our public library (the first image below). We cheered for the Amherst College Women’s Soccer team, and the ladies brought home victory against Wesleyan. The Men’s Football team, although sadly not as triumphant, was just as entertaining to watch. But aside from surviving not one but two sporting events in one day, my biggest triumph this weekend was getting my last batch of daffodil bulbs in the ground, just in time before the first frost of the season. When the garden is bleak and empty at the end of winter, I find daffodils to be the silliest, most uplifting flowers to see blooming. They also naturalize well and are deer and critter resistant, a must if your garden is under constant squirrel attack, like ours is. They are relentless, especially this time of year. How are things going in your neck of the woods? Have you planted any cheerful spring bulbs yet?

Anyway, here are a few finds that I think you might like!

Tour Cathy Kincaid’s Dallas Home with Schumacher.

If you’re on the market for new bedding, or if you’d like to add to your existing collection, these small floral print & scalloped edge sheets are absolutely stunning! They would look great as a set, or mixed and matched with a solid, a stripe or a check print.

The sets come in two colorways – sage green (above) and blue and white (below). The hardest part will be deciding between the two.

It’s the season of blankets, throws and quilts and this reversible blue and white coverlet is giving me all the right feels.

Another fun video to watch if you have the time: the Connecticut Home and Garden of Designer Bunny Williams.
