Big Front Door Energy—Part 2

Chic portals + 22 ideas for refreshing/refining the most symbolic spot in your home. Bonus VIBES: Our latest ATA fall playlist is HERE.

Hellllooo friends…before we get into today’s story, there’s a tiny tribute to the Great Robert Redford down below (including my all-time favorite cinematic clip ever…bawled like a little baby just pasting it in there:)…GOD what a legend. ❤️‍🔥

I’m also sharing our latest/greatest/grooviest A Tiny Apt. community playlist—30 dreamy, cozy, ultra-emo songs to join you on all your big + small autumnal adventures to come.

This one’s got my usual mix of tried/true classics and lots of newer artists, too. I listened to it on repeat, fine-tuning the lineup as I’ve written the last four or five newsletters here, so lmk what you think.

As a reminder, our 17 seasonal ATA Playlists are one of the perks of A Tiny Apt. and all that we do here to help you make your space + style more of what you love ❤️. So, if you appreciate the kind of stories we share here, consider becoming a paid subscriber…it keeps this newsletter growing (and existing!), and offers lots of wonderful/handy features like our 200+ story + resource archive, upcoming ATA designer/vintage Flash Sales (the last one sold out in 30 mins!) and our drilled-down Micro Wardrobe series, ie: me at the Uniqlo preview this morning ⬇️ in a new—quite marvelous—C Collection coat I came home with…it will be in our next Fall Micro Wardrobe story coming 🔜 (you can preview other cool/beautiful things I’m considering for it right here).

KK…let’s get into it…xxCb 🏠

One of the best parts about doing this newsletter every week is that it keeps me honest.

Last week I shared Part 1 of our exploration of cool + magical front doors and more so, thinking about this very central portal of our home in a more intentional way.

While I loved writing about my affection for doors/doorways/and what they mean to me and most of us, I was also avoiding the obvious…the fact that my own entryway needed a serious tending to. (Our feng shui expert also shares why it’s critical—in our space AND our lives—to keep this front path as clear as possible.)
