A good blow dry every now and then, fresh food and a diptique candle; little indulgences that make me feel a million dollars.  Betterto do without than fill a home with cheap, chemical laden candles.

Minimal homes can be so dull, but minimal waste and maximum works.  Why bother buying candle holders, when a cluster of old wine bottles creates such a dramatic effect, as seen in Elle Deco, December ‘09′.
