Weekend Inspiration: Bar Favorites

Fridays always have the tendency to make us examine our bar and cocktail corner a little closer. With the weekend approaching, discovering new drink mixes to make, or finding the perfect cocktail shaker always manages to excite us! Not to mention, our new tassel bottle openers and horn rimmed nutcrackers are now on all of our holiday wish lists! There's nothing like relaxing at the end of the week with delicious cocktail made by your own hand, and this weekend we're excited to try something new. Have a great weekend!

Red Cedar Incense

Scents, fragrances, aromas, or anything else that might pleasantly trigger our sense of smell is bound to excite us. Even with the volume of holiday candles we've been stocking our shelves with, our new Red Cedar incense cones are just too darn great not to talk about! Packaged in a beautiful red and gold box, this set of 32 cones will undoubtedly bring you hours and hours of a delightful scent of nature. The set includes a wooden burner, so you don't have to worry about finding the right base to burn the incense on. As written on the box, "Going to the woods is going home", and with lighting one of these cones, you're bound to feel like you're in the woods.

A New Perspective

Sometimes it just takes looking through a different lens to see things freshly again. Shot with a professional Polaroid camera by Michelle and Katie, these snapshots offer a slightly different perspective of the store. Unlike digital photography, Polaroid cameras only give you one chance to get the shot right, which in many ways captures certain nuances and natural flaws that digital photography cannot. Maybe it's because the photographic process possesses nostalgic qualities, or maybe it's leaving things slightly up to chance, either way we can't help but feel charmed by the beauty and warmth found in these Polaroids.

Current Obsession: Linen Napkins

For us, quality always trumps quantity. Whenever we create a new display, let's say a tablescape for instance, we're often reminded how frequently it takes just one right item to make all the pieces fall into place. Our current obsession comes in the form of table napkins. Each one is carefully spun by hand, using only the finest linens, and with a combination like that, you better believe they'll make your table look good. With only subtle tones to choose from, these napkins unify your tablescape rather than stand out as a distracting accent, keeping your place settings clean and simple looking, just the way we like it.

Available in various sizes at The Paris Market.
