14k Solid Yellow Gold Locket Necklaces by The Locket Sisters

I love beauty. I love it for the sake of itself, I love it for other people, I love it for myself, I love it through all the senses. Candles that subtly resemble a spa, a tidy home that makes it easy to find your keys, background music that sets a mood, the kind where you don't notice it until you you realize that you're loving the vibe of a place and then connect that someone intentionally…

A couple years ago an order came through from a woman named Lisa who was generously gifting her brother The Henry Locket with a photograph of the two of them and their sister, Ellen.

What my physical pain is teaching me.

Last week my family and I, along with some of our dearest friends, camped in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area (BWCA) for four nights. It's wild there. All gear, everything, must be paddled in by canoe, and carried on portages that connect the vast land of lakes. You can't reserve a campsite, and there are only a few on each lake. It offers an opportunity to sync with nature in a way t…

But maybe you're here reading this because you just can't seem to think of what else to get someone for Father's Day because they're either hard to shop for, have everything, or maybe this is a griefy, tricky holiday for either you, your Dad, or someone you know. We re…
