If you haven't heard of The Citizenry, hurry over to their site and check them out ASAP! They're honestly a hidden gem of the interior design and home decor world.
What I love about The Citizenry is their simple, natural, global approach to design. They claim that they travel the globe to source only the best products made by local artisans that use high quality, natural materials.
Now, there's no doubt that you may pay a little extra for a quality handmade piece from companies like The Citizenry. But the key word here is quality. By purchasing items from them, you are helping to support ancient arts around the world, and in return you are acquiring a unique, high quality item that will be a treasure in your home for years to come. I believe this is better than the alternative of purchasing cheaply made, mass produced items that only support big corporations and create pollution.
My goal with my next few posts is to introduce you to some of the beautiful and high quality products that you can find on The Citizenry's website. Based on the current state of affairs in the world, many of us who are unable to work are spending a lot more time at home, so I'm going to stick to products that can help make being at home a little more comfortable and enjoyable.
First up- blankets! I don't know about you but I've been spending aloooot of time under a blanket working from my couch.
As usual I stuck with a timeless neutral color palette for my selections so these would work in nearly any space. The patterns and textures are absolutely amazing! And as always they all meet Pure Living Collective's standards of natural, sustainable materials.
