This little nook under our loft got a little bit of love this week - a deep clean and fresh paint. I love this little coffee and tea bar area - it’s often overlooked but certainly gets a fair bit of use.

It’s a good example of how I tend to the space - with a whole lot of care and intention. I scrubbed, scraped, and painted myself. I lovingly arranged and restocked the freshly washed shelves (Ah, the satisfaction!).

It’s the little details that matter and I put my whole heart & soul into tending to this beautiful property of mine. Did you know that rental of our space comes with a fully stocked coffee & tea bar?

A little sneak peak of what I’ve been up to in our Enchanting Courtyard. This year my focus is expanding my perennial collection to add more texture and color and bring in some elements to make this urban oasis more whimsical.

So far I’ve added a beautiful decorative archway & matching obelisks and I am over the moon with the Venusian fountain I found (all on Facebook Marketplace!). All of the elements are French-inspired designs to further the New Orleans style courtyard feel that I’m going for. NOLA is one of my favorite cities in the world and I love trying to recreate a slice of the magic in my upstate NY property.

I have a few more items coming this week to complete my vision and I can’t wait to show you the finished product!

For my gardeners - here’s the list of perennials I’ve added so far - Foxglove, Delphinium, Clematis, Stevia, Bleeding hearts, and Columbine. 🌸

Last night we hosted the sweetest Mother’s Day workshop - it was an exquisite immersive experience with , .ny, and .

It was so visually stunning. The flower bar in our Enchanting Courtyard was so beautiful. I love that the moms were pampered with delicious drinks from .ny and little sweet snacks while they made their candles with and got some permanent jewelry from . Everyone had an amazing time. This would be the perfect experience for a bridal shower or birthday party - such a fun way to gather with your besties.

Our next wave of Spring blooms has started to appear in our Enchanting Courtyard. Our Dogwood and Lilac trees are starting to pop with their beautiful blooms and intoxicating fragrance. Our ferns are growing quickly, I can’t wait to see how big they get this year. I’ll be adding some new perennials to my collection this year, what should I add??

A flower-themed spring birthday party at Refuge. Photos by

These photos are from a visually stunning party I threw in March to celebrate my birthday and welcome in Spring. I set up different activities all throughout Refuge - making floral crowns, painting a flower mural, an adornment station with jewels and costumes, a flower making/painting station, a flower essences anointment station, a ceremonial tea station, a decadent desert display, a vast charcuterie board, and a flower altar. Having activities throughout the space gave my guests plenty to do and interact with each other. It was a fun way to be in the space together. I’m a big fan of immersive experiences and this party was my best curation yet.

Bloom check in the Enchanting Courtyard!

This bloom-filled oasis is perfect for all kinds of celebrations and we are here for the tea parties, themed showers, wedding celebrations, and more!

The prehistoric looking pods of the Darling Dogwood have started to burst open like popcorn kernels this week exposing their dainty orange-pink blooms to the world.

The intoxicating blooms of the Lovely Lilac are slowly starting to appear in whites and purples. Their scent replacing the pungent smells of Magnolia blooms with a lighter airier perfume.

Filling the in between spaces are the mighty Ferns with their tenacious unfurling tendrils and the petite pink Lilies of the Valley dancing amongst the Lilacs.

I love spring so much. I can’t wait to put my seedlings in the ground!

A glimpse of some community workshops and programs over the last couple of months. I love that the vibe in our space can be enhanced by the lighting and the setup creating an immersive experience. Lighting and comfortable seating are the pillars of a good workshop space to me. It’s all of the little touches like our complimentary tea service and having all of the accouterments that are needed that set our space apart. I host my own programs and events in Refuge and I know that these little details matter.

The blooms of the majestic Magnolia unfurl with the first heat wave of the spring. The warmth loosens their petals, strong winds of a rain storm coaxes them off their branches to dance in the wind. Spring unfolds quickly and if you don’t stop to notice you may miss the magic.
