54 DO IT YOURSELF Summer 2020

MEMORY COLLECTOR
Michelle is careful to
include meaningful
items in every vignette
in her home—things that
are special to her and
remind her of travels and
family—and the living
room bookcase, above,
and living room nook,
left, are brimming with
them. The bottom shelf
of the bookcase is piled
with fabrics from all over
the world (New York,
Guatemala, France); the
custom watercolor (an
Etsy commission) on the
gold-edged table is of
her pup, Rufus.

DO IT

BETTER
RATHER THAN TOTING HOME
SOUVENIR T-SHIRTS OR MUGS
FROM A VACATION, INVEST
IN ARTWORK (PHOTOS,
PAINTINGS, TEXTILES) WHEN
YOU TRAVEL. “TRY TO MEET
LOCAL ARTISTS AND FIND
COOL PIECES—THEY’LL
REMIND YOU OF YOUR TRIP,”
MICHELLE SAYS.
