Summer Inspirations
Summer days are longer, lighter and livelier. The delicacy and renewal of spring has transitioned to a bounty of brightness and activity. It is the season of sweet corn and watermelon, swimsuits and sprinklers, sleeping outside and staring at the stars.
In my garden, the cherry blossom, snapdragon and sweet pea have all disappeared and my poor pansies, so avid and abundant in March, slumped in unison as soon as touches of summer weather hit. Now it is time to cut back and cut down, with heavier watering, in order to welcome dinner plate dahlia, bachelor button and veronica – my flower babies who thrive in full sunlight and warm temperatures.
And, then there is my son, who expresses extreme disappointment in a day wherein we have not been to his beloved beach.
Here’s wishing you a barefoot July, with sticky berries, dreamy bonfires and bright blue skies.

Lilify is Live
We opened Lilify in 2012, after a grueling two-year renovation of a dilapidated, uninspired building with beautiful bones. We dreamt of creating an elegant, yet understated, experience that would honor the detail and authenticity of handcrafted goods and highlight the talent and passion of independent makers.
Lilify is a cultivation of our values, our aesthetic, our story, and the stories of the creatives that we spotlight.
We have been thrilled to osmose, evolve and are ever inspired by our community and our customers. We explore an expanding collection of gifts, wares and wears while continuing to refine our perspective.
In this new season for our shop, we are beyond excited to announce the launch of Lilify online! We are thrilled and humbled to invite you to immerse in our compilation of ethically, independently made, gorgeous goods.
