I know I say this over and over—autumn is my time. My season. I love Maine’s summers and winters and what we like to call spring, but fall is my favorite. The way the air changes … that back-to-school feeling you never truly lose that becomes a renewed seriousness, a fresh focus. The colors, outside and in. Sweaters. Boots. Scarves. Hardcover books and the longer evenings to read them. Hot, hot coffee. Steaming paper bags of baked goodies on crisp mornings. I could go on and on and on.
Instead? I’ve poured all the excitement and inspiration into two brand-new looks for Nicola Home, my exclusive line for Garnet Hill. I’m going to share much more about these collections in the coming weeks. I’m even going to try posting videos with my best tips on how to get the most out of these distinctive looks. But right now I invite you to visit Garnet Hill’s website to take a look at the Edward Island bed, and for a touch of holiday, the Northwoods bed.
I feel so lucky that the wonderful creative team at Garnet Hill gave me the opportunity to stretch my wings not once, but twice in one season. Both looks mark new directions for me and I’m both excited and apprehensive for how they’ll be received. (See? I told you I never lose the back-to-school feeling!) Please let me know what you think. I’m listening. And starting right now, with all these new ventures launched into the world, I’m back to reflecting. Creating. And writing!
