Of course you're going to have a closet full of bathroom cleaner, furniture polish, and refills for your swiffer.  But we think every girl (or boy) should have a kit in the linen closet with all the basics necessary to keep the house looking pretty or to make a small repair on the fly.

This month our Marketing Director is giving us a sneak peek of what she's packing for her trip to Paris next month.  Her focus is simplicity and comfortability since she plans on walking just about everywhere.

Our Love Affair with Chairs

Our Love Affair with Chairs
