And yes—you’ll want every single one.

 

Let’s Talk Layers: 12 Autumn Decor Pieces You’ll Adore

Newborn needs: calm, comfort, and convenience

The newborn stage is all-consuming: feeds, changes, naps, and repeat. Keeping your essentials close (and your sanity closer) is everything. These pieces simplify the chaos without compromising on style.
