Love Letters from the Good Life

Come On In

I’m a huge believer in the power and prettiness of a front door wreath. My mother hated them- saying they reminded her of funerals. My grandmother went overboard in the days of crafting, having everything from ribbons to tiny fake pumpkins woven into a vine wreath base. I tend to lean a little more classic. There’s almost always a boxwood wreath festooning our front door, and making their way out to the patio when company comes over or during the holidays.

I’ve found that the Smith & Hawken collection at Target offers more than enough options for those of you that may lean a little more classic, like me. While I’m, of course, a huge proponent of the simple look of the boxwood, the other options available are fabulous in their own right.

The Dried Chili Pepper version would be so cute to use when hosting friends for a taco bar, but could stand on its own against a robin’s egg blue door, or at Christmas for a traditional color in an unexpected way.

The Mushroom wreath is gorgeous!! The texture of the undersides of large mushrooms have a gorgeous goldenrod color. I could see this against copper accents on a bright white front door.

The Sola Wood Flower wreath and the Dried Flower version are both so sweet and pretty. I’d bring them indoors, perhaps in a family-style mudroom or against an olive green kitchen door.

Whichever floats your boat the best, any front door wreath is sure to make your home appear more finished, and any threshold more welcoming.

Maybe it’s due to an overactive mind, a desire to feel like I’m influencing someone, or perhaps, it’s simply that I need to talk.

Wrapped up the first week of the new year by worki Wrapped up the first week of the new year by working from home, setting intention for 2021, and planning client parties, holiday gatherings. Hoping your new year is off to the best start. Cheers, y’all.
Wishing you the most beautiful Christmas. This yea Wishing you the most beautiful Christmas. This year hasn’t been the easiest on anyone, and the holidays may be difficult. I hope you find the light this season, and that even if Christmas Day is spent alone, I hope that the quiet and the snow, the light of the tree and the music on the radio provide a heart full of love.
While the man and I aren’t really doing a beauti While the man and I aren’t really doing a beautiful table setting this year (we have paper plates and a folding table), or roasting a huge bird and hosting 20 people for board games and bourbon (it’ll be turkey meatballs for two, because... Covid), I still wanted to throw some inspiration out there. This is my favorite Thanksgiving tablescape from 2017. This table is on the blog now! Cheers, y’all.
Coming soon: a century-old beauty that you just ha Coming soon: a century-old beauty that you just have to see. Keep your eyes peeled, y’all, for an Old Louisville mansion hitting the market next week.
So hard to believe our gorgeous home is on the mar So hard to believe our gorgeous home is on the market... so many years here, and so many changes in our lives. This house has seen the loss of both our dogs, both my parents. We celebrated our engagement here, came home happy and silly after a Christmas elopement. Thanksgiving here has been full of Bourbon and friends and Trivial Pursuit.  This has been my happy place for the better part of a decade. 

Going to sleep tonight in hopes of the right buyer who will love these walls as much as we have 💕
Happy Friday from the best place on earth! Happy Friday from the best place on earth!
