  • The Afrominimalist's Guide to Living with Less

    by Christine Platt

    Sold out

    *Ships in 7-10 business days*

     

    In The Afrominimalist’s Guide to Living With Less, Christine gets right to the heart of how childhood experiences and expectations manifest in adulthood, the delicate dance between needs and wants, and the complicated weight of familial and societal pressures. A far cry from Konmaried closets, capsule wardrobes, and conspicuous consumption, Christine’s brand of “living with less” is more than a decluttering regimen. Inspired by her personal journey, Christine presents a radical revisioning of minimalism, one that celebrates the importance of history and heritage, and gives you permission to make space for what really matters…your way.

  • Wild at Home: How to Style and Care for Beautiful Plants

    by Hilton Carter

    $24.99

    *Ships in 7-10 Business Days*

    Take a tour through Hilton’s own apartment and other lush spaces, filled with a huge array of thriving plants, and learn all you need to know to create your own urban jungle. As the owner of over 200 plants, Hilton feels strongly about the role of plants in one’s home—not just for the beauty they add, but for health benefits as well: ‘having plants in your home not only adds life, but changes the airflow throughout. It’s also a key design element when styling your place. For me, it wasn’t about just having greenery, but having the right variety of greenery. I like to see the different textures of foliage all grouped together. You take a fiddle leaf fig and sandwich it between a birds of paradise and a monstera and…. yes!’ You will be armed with the know-how you need to care for your plants, where to place them, how to propagate, how to find the right pot, and much more, and most importantly, how to arrange them so that they look their best. Combine sizes and leaf shapes to stunning effect, grow your own succulents from leaf cuttings, create your own air plant display, and more.

    by Middleton A Harris, Ernest Smith, Morris Levitt, and Roger Furman

    $35.00

    A new edition of the classic New York Times bestseller edited by Toni Morrison, offering an encyclopedic look at the black experience in America from 1619 through the 1940s with the original cover restored.

    When Toni Morrison was a senior editor at Random House, she worked with four prominent collectors of black memorabilia to develop this extraordinary “scrapbook” of more than five hundred images detailing the rich cultural and social history of African Americans—from the era of the transatlantic slave trade through the start of the Civil Rights movement. Now, as the nation marks the four hundredth anniversary of the first enslaved Africans’ arrival on these shores, The Black Book returns to print in hardcover, featuring the original jacket design.
