January Joy comes in two forms for most of us. The classic “Recover and Recharge” camp and the energetic “Reinvigorate and Reinvent” camp. One chills, soaks, cocoons, journals and self-soothes. The other reframes, reignites, dreams, reaches, scours, rebirths and takes up more space.
We invite your comments as to which canoe you personally paddle; we’re here to help elevate both with some of our faves: helpful essays, items, and overall inspo.
If you're wondering what houseplant is hot in 2024, EasyPlant’s 2024 Trend Report names Dracaena Janet Craig Compacta (aka dracaena deremensis) is THE plant to have.

This resilient plant thrives in spaces with direct sunlight to indirect low light, making it the perfect plant to elevate any space. Its deep-green, angular leaves add texture, something we’ll see more of when it comes to home design in 2024 and beyond."

What are your signature character traits? What code do you want to live by this year?
