10 Things We Love
1 - Fresh Flowers
Who doesn’t love receiving flowers? It is almost as much fun to give them. Jacksonville has some amazingly talented florists. If you’re at the beach we recommend Liz Stewart Floral Design. Avondale and Ortega areas are lucky enough to have Glenn Certain Design. If you want to send an affordable small bouquet, no one does it better than Little Flower Bunch.
2 - Great Sheets
We discovered these amazing sheets at market. They are bamboo and wick away any moisture keeping you comfortable all night long. They are also the softest most wonderful thing to sleep under. Cozy Earth sheets have become our favorite indulgence. They can be ordered through us at wholesale pricing or on their website www.cozyearth.com
3 - Charcuterie Boards
Baba Boards are handmade and come in so many different shapes and sizes. The natural wood patinas with time and adds to its beauty with use. We have even specified them for across a bathtub! @bababoards
4 - Nibbles
No Charcuterie board is complete without the proper nibbles. We love Honey and Brie Grazing. A local Jacksonville company that delivers everything you need for an amazing happy hour!
5 - Jewelry
Local artists are the best. Diana Byll-Cataria with Attia Designs makes the most fun hand-crafted earrings out of clay. They are light weight and gorgeous. You can find her at the riverside arts market or on her web site www.attiadesigns.com
6 - Beauty
We believe you should take care of yourself as well as others. The biggest splurge you can give yourself is a new Dyson hairdryer. It is truly amazing. Whether you select the blow dryer only model of the fancy air whip dryer with curling capabilities you will be thrilled at how smooth and shiny your hair looks. Big bonus it will cut your styling time in half! Really!
7 - Working from Home
The newest desks on the market have a wonderful high low feature. If you are stuck at a desk all day having the ability to stand or sit is a game changer. The desks go from a seated height of 30” to a standing height of 49.5”! Check out these sleek and functional desks by Hooker Furniture.
8 - Nature
We are all used to our beautiful east coast sunrises. A bit more novel for us is catching a great sunset. Here are a few of our favorite spots:
Palm Fish Camp on Heckscher Drive
Riverfront Park in San Marco.
A short drive across the state will bring you to Cedar Key, a sleepy old Florida fishing town. We highly recommend the Hideaway Tiki Bar at sunset.
9 - Covid Fashion
Since Masks have become a new fashion statement, we thought we would share a couple of our favorites. Kitsch face masks are made out of a wonderfully breathable gauze like fabric. www.mykitsch.com
A great stylish disposable option is from Mask C. They have a satin fabric appearance and come in a wonderful skin tone version to match every outfit. www.shopmaskc.com
