Foraged Flora | Kelsey's Botanical Guide

Each of our Elsie Green team members has a hidden talent.  Kelsey's is floral design.  She effortlessly puts together pretty, loose and organic arrangements around the shop, and always knows which botanicals dry gracefully, and which are best to put up high in the shop because they're low maintenance.

Our Fall Botanical Guide

Fall branches and leaves.  We love them.  All of the Elsie Green shop girls have clippers and a sharp eye for a beautiful branch of fall leaves, apple branches, or fruiting olives.

Steal My Sources | Laurie's Favorite Sources for Inspiration

I believe I am one of the last living catalog people.  I was working on catalog layouts and photoshoots when blue line meant writing on the proofs in blue pencil because the camera could not see the blue markings, when cut and paste was a literal term, and when a polaroid was taken of each image and hatched inside the photographer's armpit before anything was committed to film.

How Matthew James Chooses Art for his Moody, Brooklyn Apartment

Art can enhance a space, elicit a certain reaction or memory and its typically one of the last touches added when finishing a room. Thats why the art Ive chosen for my Brooklyn apartment holds a special place in my heart. Each artwork hanging on my walls has helped transform the space I call home.

Every Style of Glassware You Need for Your At Home Bar

Your home bar glassware collection does not have to be plentiful to be complete. A combination of a few staple pieces that can be used for various drinks will do the trick. In other words, a short glass, a tall glass and a glass with a stem.
