The Friday Five | 5.3.24

Hello, May! What a great way to start this post. I love this time of year here in New England. It’s really hard for me to travel outside of our corner of the USA now through Christmastime. Once the grass gets green and the trees are blooming, home is where I prefer to be. This spring and summer season, I’ll be sharing more of our Shoreline Tour of Connecticut & Rhode Island along with coastal Maine. Then our Nantucket summer once summer arrives officially.

With the weather getting so nice here, I’m switching my home eyes to our outdoor spaces. I’m going to work on our patio and entry way this month, so stay tuned for updates on those. We are getting new windows this spring too, so I’m finally at a point where I can start adding window boxes this year! Once the new windows go in, I’m going to start plotting them out. We have two bathrooms we are starting and the final touches going into the living room, that I’ll share in the months ahead too.

Here’s what caught my eye this week…

ONE

Lawn game season…

With the weather consistently nice again, it’s time to enjoy our lawn and the parks and beaches here. We set up croquet on the lawn last weekend for a Saturday at home after soccer. Here are some great lawn game sets and any of these would make a great gift too.

Prince for Target

I had to do a Target run the other day and saw the new Prince for Target collection right when I walked into the store. Such a cute collection for pickleball. Here’s some favorites…

THREE

Mother’s Day at Lake

One of my favorite gifts to give for Mother’s Day are a set of my favorite pajamas from LAKE. Order by 5/6 for standard shipping so your gifts arrive in time for Mom. I’m linking my favorite sets available online for you including this new color and print in the Pima Long Set.

Draper James new drop…

The new May collection at Draper James is just darling for summer! I love all the stripes and Americana vibes. Here are my favorites from DJ this month, and I’ll be sharing more soon.

FIVE

Serena & Lily sale…

Serena & Lily is having a 20% off sale on some coastal home finds. I have these bamboo chairs and use them all season long when we are entertaining. It’s a great time to snag some patio furniture or home decor too. Aren’t those little lobster napkins rings the cutest?!

I hope you all have a fun weekend! We have soccer and some community events we are doing so it will be a busy one, but a good one.

Happy May!
