Spring Cleaning :)

We've made it through March! On to better and warmer days surely. As we look around and do some spring cleaning, some rearranging, finding new inspirations for home feels like a fresh way to step into April! We have always loved the rustic shelves from roost, made from beautiful recycled Indian rail-tyes, they're a great way to rearrange and present the pretty things you already own!

Canvas makes this modern stainless steel cutlery set, clean lines and subtle curves, we love the simplicity of this shape to update your table. Set of 5, $49.

Rustic Wood Shelves, Medium, $89

Focus!

We're loving the new year's ringing in of change, the desire to focus on our goals, and this energy  naturally brings the motivation to reprioritize, get things done, make lists. We have a great set of organizational mini binders and page inserts that are such an important element in getting us organized at La Merceria this year!

Russell & Hazel binders in charcoal, gold, and blue linen have the option of choosing the right sort of filler for your needs - from alphabet tabs, graph paper, pouches for loose paper, and stick on mini pockets to place wherever. We love this versatility in a line of beautiful paper supplies! They make a large size too if your work is full scale!

 

And for some of us, its a simple matter of having something beautiful to write with and on. A great notebook and beautiful pen or pencil can inspire the greatest of work! 

 

Russell & Hazel Binders, $19. Inserts, $12-15. Roost Pencil Crayon Set, $16. Roost Push Pins, $12. Snow & Graham Notepad, $12.

yerba mate lemonade

Yerba Mate is an ancient drink of health and friendship, and the culture which has evolved around gathering to enjoy the tea is a wonderful and integral part of South American life. Friends and family gather in homes, on street corners, and share pot of mate, drank via metal straws called bombillas, among many other ritualistic customs.

In hot weather, a cold yerba mate lemonade is the way to enjoy this amazing tea. Try it at La Merceria this summer!
