It’s officially summer, and Mother Earth is making it clear with scorching hot temps sweeping the East Coast. We’re hoping our New York friends found a cool spot to hide out. Though let’s be real...nothing’s escaping that subway platform heatwave.

So, without further ado, we have our weekly inspiration for you to spark your afternoon daydreams. 🌿✨

My personal TikTok feed has been flooded with clips from the ’90s HGTV show Decorating Cents.
