26 August

Hi hi! Excited to share a roundup of some of my everyday go-to essentials—the favorite beautiful/functional pieces that I have collected over the years.

In the past I have posted about our kitchen organization/storage systems, our glassware collection, entertaining essentials, and I have a whole kitchen good shop here!

Love these napkins so much — they make meals feel so much more special, especially this year while spending so much time at home...

Cutting Board Set

Love this set — the best. I also really like boards from etu home!

Brass Pepper Mill

A couple of years ago when we were in Sydney, Bill's in Bondi had these cute pepper mills on the table and it inspired me to buy one for our stove-side! Love taking inspiration from restaurants...

Marble Salt Cellar

I've had this for years and love it — such a cute one!

Striped Linen Apron

Great to have on hand for snack bags, frozen fruit in the freezer, etc.

Stone Spoon Rest

Just got this from Jenni Kayne and love it.
