Making space for a busy spring 🌸
A cozy outdoor furniture collection, apartment patio inspo, and how to propagate outdoor plants
A letter from our editor 💌
Spring starts tomorrow here in the northern hemisphere, and with it comes a lot of BIG energy. Personally, I’m traveling all over the US for a mix of work and pleasure, so my time at home is limited.
So with my rest time being particularly precious, I’m trying to find low-maintenance ways to take care of myself amidst the hustle and bustle. That means meandering walks through my neighborhood park, cracking open a new library book, and sipping cool lemonade on my patio. These simple, low-stakes ways to relax in between unpacking, doing laundry, and packing again are keeping me grounded (and calm amidst all the flight delay notifications).
What does self-care this season look like for you?
Warmly, Emily
