As we shake off the sniffles from our latest escapade at the High Point Furniture Market, Steven Merck and I, Wesley Turner, invite you to ride along and join our cozy chat about the unexpected "gifts" of market life. Not only did we come back with a cold, but our suitcases were stuffed with treasures like sumptuous bedding and a swanky new bar cart.

Strap in for a stylish ride through the modern cottage trend, where the rustic charm of farmhouses gets an elegant upgrade.

Before we sign off, we address the elephant in the room – the impact of social media and the importance of inclusivity within our community. Sharing a slice of our lives means opening up to public scrutiny, and we recount a personal experience that brought this home. Yet, the heartwarming support we received reminds us that, although not everyone may share our values, the embrace of diversity and inclusivity is what truly defines our space. So join us, cozy up, and let's navigate the ever-evolving world of design, personal stories, and the value of staying true to ourselves.
