While some people use their bathroom as an opportunity to add vibrant colors and bold patterns, others prefer a more neutral, spa-like feel. There’s no right or wrong answer, of course, but if you’re looking for something ultra-calming and tranquil, take inspiration from DIYer Jihan Henriques (@_lifewithjihan), who transformed her New York City apartment’s bathroom into a soothing oasis with a neutral color palette and varied textures.

When it comes to making a strong first impression with your home, consider the front door the exterior heavyweight. It’s one of the first things guests encounter and a view you and your neighbors will see daily. Plus, from the style to the hardware, the front door sets the tone for what’s to come inside. That’s why choosing the right paint color—one that suits your home’s architecture and the surroundings, as well as your own personal decorating taste—is all important. Here are eight of the best front door paint colors, according to Southern designers—no surprise that neutrals, blues, and greens top the list.

The weather around this time of year — the end of summer and beginning of fall — is perfect for hanging out outdoors. It’s not quite as hot as it was a few weeks ago, but it’s also far from cold, which means that you should cram in as much outdoor time as possible. Entertaining in your backyard, curling up with a book on your patio, working in your yard, firing up the grill — this is your chance to cram it all in before it gets too chilly.

Close friends know that I am a big-time chocolate-lover. If there’s no chocolate in the dessert you’re offering me, chances are high that I’ll politely decline. Even bigger than my enthusiasm for chocolate though, is my love for the specific combination of chocolate and peanut butter. This duo makes me weak in the knees and it truly came as a shock to me when I realized not everyone cares for it.

When I’m online browsing or seeing a brand’s newest home collection, I’m always drawn in by the lamps. Sometimes, they can live rent-free in my head for years — like this Anthropologie table lamp. So, I am pretty picky about the lamps that I allow into my home. Unfortunately, about a year ago, I spent $185 on a floor lamp, which is a big splurge for me — maybe the most I’ve ever paid for a home decor item — and guess what? After a month of use, it stopped working. I believe that the wiring was faulty. I was so annoyed and upset at myself for not remembering a fundamental shopping rule: Just because something is expensive does not mean it’s well-made (especially these days). I hauled it down and put it out for the trash, deliberately sticking a note that said, “DOES NOT WORK” so some home decor treasure-hunting New Yorker didn’t scoop it up.

A historic marker could be erected to honor the victims of the racist mass shooting at the Dollar General store in Jacksonville’s New Town neighborhood nearly a year ago. If approved by the Jacksonville City Council, a marker would be installed at Kings Road and Canal Street on Aug. 25, a day before the first anniversary of the shooting, when a white gunman took the lives of three Black people.
