Your textile collection makes me SWOON. The dark paint really lets them steal the show. Love it! Can’t wait to try a little headboard slipcover action of my own, what a marvelous idea!

Thank you Rhia...you know, I am very proud of me and Julia for coming up with something so handy since I'm short on the DIY gene...it turned out amazing. It might be my favorite detail, since it's such an easy surprise:)

The most moisturizing conditioner I have found is this: https://www.ingredientstodiefor.com/item.php?item_id=1486

Their website is terrible, but this product is so good. It's mostly shea butter and I think that's the secret. I have really thick hair frizzy and a buy it literally by the gallon. (It looks like those giant food service mayo jars!) My mom, who is in her 70s, recently stopped coloring her hair and got a gray transformation color correction, and it's the only thing that works for her, too. You can even use it as a leave in.

I’m on vacation and kept prioritizing books and postponing reading this edition on my phone… couldn’t resisti. But looking forward to returning home and re-reading it on a bigger screen! Your textile collection is just amazing. It’s incredible how you managed to make a dark paint feel both cozy and light!

P.S. My hair is naturally dry since ever but I hear you with dryness that comes with age. Have switched back to Davines shampoo and conditioner and it has been great!

Congratulations on your bedroom refresh! It looks wonderful. Sitting next to your tiny window to read a book must be delightful. I also used to neglect my bedroom a lot. I would always put attention to the kitchen, dining, living rooms because those are the spaces that everyone sees. But this time around, the first room I decided to give tender loving care, was our bedroom, and I couldn't be any happier.

Also, I should have put this in the piece, but the feeling I have every night now when I go to bed…like this big satisfied exhale, because I get to simply BE in this room, not distracted by all these other things/to do’s….I can just appreciate it. It’s been really nice…thank you Maria Cristina❤️❤️

I’m getting cave woman vibes but in a good way. The color makes me want to hunker down and sleep for awhile. 🛏️💤🩶

So I toured Ryan Lawson’s apartment which was cool and then I went to your tiny shop and saw the Hans Hoffman vintage oil on canvas painting…the colors divine!!! Then I googled Hans Hoffman and wow…the bio! So I had to have it. Thank you.☺️

Yes, I bought it. And I did not go to Ryan’s house…just clicked on the link in your post that took me to the article that wrote about him and his apartment and how he found it and had numerous photos of all of the rooms. Pretty 😎!
