My Little Black Book
Burn Your Shit: The Life-Changing Magic of Rituals by Lori Dyan, Blackwing Pencil, & Serpentine Sofa by Vladimir Kagan
Hello my friends! Hope your week has been fantastic.
Alright, let’s jump into this week’s micro edition of my Little Black Book of treasures I am loving right now.
Burn Your Shit: The Life-Changing Magic of Rituals by Lori Dyan has finally hit shelves at our local and big box booksellers. I am extremely excited to introduce this book that my dear circle sister, Lori, also known as Tarot Lori, wrote. Lori’s 35 years of storied wisdom helps us discover what is possible (and the work that needs to be done) by providing step-by-step instructions to celebrate any occasion, tackle every challenge, and elevate our intentions. Yes please! Count me in!
I revel in the details. To me the details are what turn up the enjoyment level of all things. Pencils are a perfect example of something we take for granted, until you try a smooth, richly colored graphite Blackwing pencil. Every first draft I write begins by hand with my Blackwing pencil and my Esme journal. Yes, as a writer I may be biased about what writing utensil I use. But I do not think I’m the only one amongst us who appreciates the details. The little things are what make our lives special, alchemizing the mundane into the elevated. The scent of a candle burning, the pencil in our hand softly gliding across the page. Voila! Our space and experience transformed.
The Serpentine Sofa by Vladimir Kagan is what we decided upon for our living room. Our new home is architecturally linear to which we wanted to introduce softness through the interior design, balancing the masculine with the feminine. Yin and yang. Kagan’s Serpentine Sofa as the anchor piece of the living room with its curved lines does just that in spades.
Sending love and the best of wishes for a wonderful week ahead!
