A dream balcony with @jordansfurniture that I will certainly be enjoying through the seasons šŸ‚šŸŒøā˜€ļøā„ļø | AD  We absolutely love our new Bainbridge Outdoor set from Jordan’s Furniture, featuring classic coastal wicker, comfortable cushions, and a cozy firepit.  A few reasons why we love Jordan’s:  • The Quality - Jordan’s furniture is built and tested to hold up, so I never have to second-guess a piece once it’s in my space  • Made for New England Weather - Between the wind, salty air & unpredictable seasons in a coastak town, I needed pieces that could handle it, and the all-weather fabrics and durable frames do exactly that.  • White Glove Service - They set everything up exactly where I wanted it, no heavy lifting or assembly stress on my end.  • In-Stock Styles - Most of their outdoor pieces are in-stock, so I could actually enjoy the balcony this summer instead of waiting weeks for a refresh.  #JordansFurniture #SouthShoreMA #CoastalLiving  My actual dream. Loving The Bainbridge Fire Pit.  As soon as I saw the Bainbridge Club Chair, I knew I needed to create a little reading nook next to the plants.  The fact that this will be on well into New England winter nights has me giddy.  Thank you, Jordan’s FurniturešŸ«¶šŸ» Here’s to more cozy nights at home!

Balcony plants from @beacongardens šŸ‘©šŸ¼ā€šŸŒ¾šŸŖšŸŖ“  You know that space you dream of having in a home? This is mine. A cozy haven that allows me to relax, be creative, get work done, read, and enjoy an iced coffee outdoors all from the luxury of home.  I have already spent the majority of my time out here and I’m curious as to how cold it will have to get this winter for me to stay inside. I’ll report back in a few months.  🌺Flowers featured: Dipladenia, Salvia, Lantana, Calibrachoa, Gomphrena, Hibiscus  šŸ“Beacon Gardens

My first @levitatemusicfestival experience and I know why this is such a beloved South Shore summer tradition šŸŽ¶šŸŽøšŸŒžšŸŒŠāœØ  If you’ve never been to Levitate before, it’s basically an entire weekend filled with live music, incredible food, local makers, live art, cold drinks and a laid-back atmosphere. There’s so much happening, from the 60+ artisan vendors in the Creators Market and the murals and art installations to grabbing food from one of 30+ food trucks.Ā   My entire outfit is fromĀ @housecat.plymouth, featuring secondhand and vintageĀ pieces for the perfect festival look.Ā šŸ«¶šŸ»  Thankful for living in a placeĀ that offers so much diversity, talent, and interesting experiences.Ā   #marshfield #marshfieldma #southshorema #levitate #levitatefestival
