01. Question from a reader: what’s a soft blue you like?
This Whispering Blue is the color we used in the two little boys’ bedroom for Mandy Moore and Taylor Goldsmith. We covered both the walls and ceiling, and it created the softest, most calming, prettiest blue cocoon. It’s one of those colors I would happily use anywhere in my own home. We also used it in Clover’s bedroom in our Italian on the Blvd project. And it’s going into our Hampton’s clients’ primary bedroom as I type.

02. Embroidered towels: You can now order my SSS towels with embroidery! We embroidered our cottage towels with its name “Goat Hill,” and everyone is completely delighted by them. It’s proof that little details can make the most ordinary objects feel special.
03. Magnesi-Om: I was in LA last month for a Lulu photoshoot (new collection coming this fall!) and a few client installs. Then a few weeks later, I went to New York for a client install. How do I reacclimatize to time zone changes?
I have a whole travel toolbox, and one of the longest running staples in it is my Magnesi-Om. I take it every night at home, but I find it works even harder when I’m traveling. It really helps me get a good night’s rest, and, eh, hmmm, stay regular.
04. Our new sign: We just installed our new sign at the galley/studio! We are hoping to move into our new studio and gallery space this month, but I couldn’t help but get this beautiful brass sign up.
The gallery is located at 1048 Wealthy St in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Stay tuned for details on the opening!
05. A snake sprinkler: This kids’ summer round up! So many fun things. Particularly this snake sprinkler. An inflatable that’s actually adorable.
You can find more of my favorites here and here.
What should I add?
The perfect blue is so hard to find! Looking to repaint a master bedroom and whispering blue looks like the calmest I’ve seen! Thanks for sharing 🩵
Excited for your GR studio!
