Happy New Year! There is always something invigorating about a fresh start to the year. I am noticing little things I want to add to my space to make it even more intimate, new ways to organize my calendar and travel, and personal goals for myself. I am not a dry January person (it is my birthday month after all), but I am goal oriented.
Here are a few of my goals for The Potted Boxwood:
One home tour a week, 100,000 YouTube subscribers (tell your friends), consistently post Friday Favorites plus an additional blog post each week, and get my travel guides ready to launch!
Thank you so much for faithfully following the journey of The Potted Boxwood! More great home tours are heading your way. Also, be sure to attend this amazing in-person home tour in Atlanta this month. Join me as I moderate a panel of amazing designers including: Phoebe Howard, Ashley Gilbreath, John Plaster, and Melanie Millner. Pictures of the homes are throughout the post! Tickets HERE

Speaking of goals, I highly suggest purchasing this five minute journal (men or women). It is a great way to start and end your day. Thank you to my friend Emily for purchasing for me!
Beautiful patterned and fabric lampshades aren’t as hard to find as you think. Look no further than some of my favorite sources HERE and HERE.
One of the things I am going to add to my apartment this year is sconces. I love these cordless double sconces. This brand has great options for cordless lighting.
I was happy to assist my friend Pam in upping her luggage and travel bag for an upcoming trip we have to Paris. She prefers her luggage to not split in two sections, so she bought this trunk. This brand also has a great trunk option. She wanted a very lightweight bag, so she purchased this tote to carry-on. I am looking to get a new travel duffel and this one and this one are on my list.
I always get questions about brass switch plates that are seen often in many of the homes I tour. A great source is HERE and HERE.
The same goes for brass hardware for doors.
I had many requests to find sofas and swivel chairs. Here is a round up!
This jute rug and this blue and white wool rug were some of my most clicked links on instagram this month.
I am a big fan of this tee-shirt brand. Love this mushroom color! Will look great with ivory jeans.
When it comes to a good flat find, I recommend these and these.
I love the look of this luggage rack.
These Francis Elkins style chairs are a treasure!
