Greetings to all! Hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Since the internet is the shopping destination du jour (hello, Cyber Monday!), here are a few of my new favorite home and garden websites. Each is thoughtfully curated and a terrific source for unique, design-focused holiday gifts.
Terrain is the online destination of two amazing garden centers in Glen Mills, PA and Westport, CT. With the intention of creating an experience for all senses, the owners have curated an online store stocked with local plants and globally sourced home goods. Whether you're purchasing a holiday wreath or a year-round tabletop piece, Terrain can always be counted on for a rustic, elegant aesthetic. (Laguiole Coffret Kitchen Knife Set, $128)
Leif
Leif is a wonderland of modern and whimsical decorative home supplies. From bright pink and purple printed breakfast trays to confetti-covered tumblers, the site bursts with color, pattern, and great design. The accessory and jewelry buys are pretty brilliant, too. (Pantone Teapot, $56)
Shelter Black is a collaboration between skateboard industry designer Valerie Kileen and her partner, designer and craftsman Jonathan Boyd. I'm loving the sport-inspired modern aesthetic and affordable prices. With dip-dyed hammers, cages assembled with mountain roping cord, and various planters, it's a go-to spot for cheerful, unisex gifts. (Garden State Hanging Pots, $38)
