| Plant Spotlight | Want a low-maintenance plant? Meet the Pilea (pie-lee-uh), also known as a Chinese Money Plant or Pancake Plant because of the coin-shaped foliage so unique to this succulent. It loves bright, indirect light and being rotated a few times a week so it doesn't grow lopsided. It dislikes humidity and soggy soil. These plants are notorious for producing pups, aka cute little offshoots that can be propagated and gifted to all your plant-loving friends. How adorable would this look in your windowsill? We've got several sizes of pilea in the shop right now and can talk you through propagation if you're interested in learning more. | Notes by our plant lady, @plants_by_her. 🏻⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ #interiorrewilding⁠
We carry designs by more than 44 woman-owned jewelry businesses and love that each one uses actual human hands to bring their pieces to life. As a fellow woman-owned and operated company it feels pretty dang good to doing their thing in the world.⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠

| Plant Spotlight | The mighty pothos, a vining plant that's a favorite for indoor use because of its variegated leaves, beautiful trailing vines and generally easy care. These plants prefer when the top few inches of soil dry out between waterings. It tolerates low light levels, but will grow more quickly (and with more pronounced leaf variegation) in a brighter spot. Just avoid lots of direct sunlight so you don't burn the leaves. We have all kinds of pothos in the shop. They're especially great for beginner plant parents. Swing by and we'll point you in the right direction. | Notes by our plant lady, @plants_by_her. ? . . . . . . . . . . . #interiorrewilding
We're a small, hardworking, all-female team and we get our kicks by working with products that have soul. Like jewels made by deeply inspiring female makers who use their actual hands to bring their craft to the world. Fee free to DM us about any piece you see posted on our feed. | Shot by our amazing photographer, @_tanyapavlova_⠀ .⠀ ⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ ⠀

We love a good shop shelfie. We also love that these ceramic containers were made by real hands through fair-trade partnerships with small and family-run businesses. Now, that sparks joy. | Containers available in three sizes and three colors (black, storm grey and white).⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀
Are you ready for July? Our Turkish towels are piled high in anticipation of all the beachy trips on the horizon. We've got plenty of styles and colors to chose from. The best part: they double as bathroom towels, scarves or throws during the cooler months.⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ ⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ ⠀
| Plant Spotlight | The Instagram-famous monstera deliciosa is known for its split leaves that can get downright gigantic. This plant is both beautiful and easy to care for. It loves bright, indirect light, but will do fine in a room with medium light levels. Let the top soil dry out between waterings (as it's prone to root rot). If you really want to be a star plant parent, mist it regularly (don't forget to wipe the leaves monthly). These beauties are available in the shop and we'd be happy to give you even more dirt on placement and care. | Notes by our plant lady, @plants_by_her. ?⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀
We're constantly moving things around at the shop to keep it looking fresh. Sometimes we even stay late, turn up the music and hunker down to let the creative juices flow. (Also, how good do our brass frames look alongside the shop plants in this shelfie moment?) | Thanks to @_tanyapavlova_ for capturing this beautiful shot for us.⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #jungalow⠀ #myspaceanddecor⠀
Don't forget about dad this weekend! Father's day is on Sunday and we've got some great gifties for him, from leather wallets and brass key rings to shaving essentials and hair-care products. Grab a little something to go with your card this year.⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ ⠀

Father's Day is coming up and we definitely have you covered in the card department with lots of different ways to say "thanks" to pop. ?⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀
It's all in the details (like the delicate stacking of a few sweet rings with gold and brass finishes). And it doesn't end there. The jewelry collection at the shop has a little bit of everything: precious stones and metals, hand-made pieces, vintage finds, locally-made jewels and designs by small and women-run businesses. It's basically a modern-day treasure chest.⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀
Is it the weekend yet? We're ready for some cozy vibes and a slow morning (with coffee) in bed. ⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ ⠀
All decked out for the week with shop gems and fancy fingers. DM us to inquire about the ring styles shown. | PS: polish is by our favorite, @basecoatnailsalon in the "terra" color.⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ ⠀
We're bursting at the seams with a new shipment of Berg's terracotta pots. We adore the clean and elegant styles, and that they come with drainage holes and saucers. We also love working with a family-run company that has been perfecting its process for more than 75 years. It certainly shows!⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ ⠀
June is on the horizon! That means summer solstice is around the corner and we're planning a little somethin' special with @shopsesen to celebrate with this community. Keep an eye out for a very exciting announcement about what's in store in June.⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀
