Native Union: Simple Technology for the Home
I'm excited to continue week three on the blog with you of Making A Home. For those of you who have been following along, you know what a special process it has been for Jase and me to renovate our home and take extra care in filling it with clean, safe, and simple items that we love. Though it has been a longer journey than expected, many of you have been asking, and I'm excited to finally share! Over the next few weeks I'll be sharing all things home, before and afters, and brands we've come to love along the way.Jase and I were shopping one day in Malibu, and we walked in the coolest store. I came across the most high-quality wireless chargers, and the rest is history. Nothing takes the coziness out of a room more than technology cords, and I always have the hardest time finding USB chargers, cases, and wireless chargers that actually look nice in a home.It was like a whole new world opened up when I discovered Native Union. It is our go-to brand for all technology needs, and the quality is an A++. My most favorite thing we use are the drop wireless chargers we put in our room and the guest rooms. It is such a nice feeling when you don't have to find a place to charge your phone. First world problem by far, but I am so thankful for these inventions that add a classic twist to something we use every day.Here are the pieces we love:
This leather case for air pods is so pretty and such a functional gift.
This is the best laptop charger.
We have these on the nightstands of all of our rooms.
This case is so good.
I hope you’re enjoying following along with our home process – And, more to come over the next few weeks on my Instagram and right here on the blog. Xo
gift guide: for the men
Is it just me, or are men just hard to buy for? Guys for the most part are so simple and seem to be content with what they have, so it's difficult to think of anything but the typical to give. My goal each year is to think outside the box and give something useful, yet thoughtful. Does he like golf? Get him a new driver, golf bag, or fun accessories. Did he just start a new job? Get him a great pair of work shoes, ties, and nice clothes. Does he travel a lot? Bose speakers, an iPad Air, or a travel bag are always good options. Check out some of my favorite presents to give the guys!1. For the guy that loves a cold drink, especially a Moscow Mule. S/2 Antiqued Copper Mugs2. For the man who loves biking. P.S. Find any care kit imaginable here. FA Seeds Co. 'Cycle Care Kit'3. For decor, warmth, and snuggling. Filson Mackinaw Wool Throw Blanket4. To spice up your man's watch collection. Tsovet Watch5.
