Gardenia Scented Candle by Studio Stockhome
“I’m pretty much always looking for an excuse to switch up my home fragrance – and springtime calls for fresh, green scents. If you’re into florals, you’ll love the Gardenia Candle by Studio Stockhome. It has a soft, nuanced fragrance that features all the major floral notes: jasmine, rose, lily of the valley, and – say it with me, gardenia – peppered with comforting musk. The beautiful yet unassuming glass vessel functions as a decorative home accent too, adding a touch of minimalism to your space.” — Alexa, Commerce Editor

Tile Mat by Letterfolk
“I’ve always loved the whimsical look of the Letterfolk Tile Mat, but given my lack of outdoor space, I didn’t think I could make it work for me. That was until my fiancé suggested I style it in the kitchen in front of our sink. It instantly brightened up our dark alley kitchen and gave the room an uplifting, retro vibe that’s perfect for spring!” — Alexa, Commerce Editor

Large Wire Baskets – Set of 2 by Open Spaces
“I have now bought a set of the large baskets and a set of the small ones in light pink, and they’ve become so useful in my attempt to organize everything now that winter is coming to an end. I’m using one of the larger baskets to hold my favorite throw blankets now that it’s warmer and I’m not using them every day. The throws are now contained but I still get to look at their fun patterns while they’re neatly stored away on a shelf.” — Caroline, Editorial Director
