{ seasonal goodness }

{ back porch collection }

Not too long ago the fabulous Dr. Brent Ridge of Beekman 1802

dropped me a line announcing the Beekman 1802 Back Porch Collection.

Beekman 1802 has always been devoted to seasonal living--

appreciating the best of what each season brings.

The only place better to reflect on life than the back porch is in a
luxurious bath. That was the inspiration for The Back Porch Collection---
four soaps whose scents capture the essence of each season as witnessed
from the back porch of Beekman Farm.

This collection is encased in a hand-crafted red cedar keepsake box
with a lid fashioned as a screen door.

Spring: a light blend of sweet florals with a vanilla top note

Summer: a vibrant explosion of summer blossoms and fruits

Autumn: a soothing blend of musk with hints of sandalwood and cedar

Winter: crisp and minty just like that first breath of the clean winter air

{ Bodha Lanterns }

The sleek hurricane and traditional copper base of Bodha Lantern turns a simple candlestick into a more firey accent. Use solo or pair two or three for a dining centerpiece. And don’t forget, the Bodha Lantern has utilitarian functionality when stormy weather knocks out the electric.
