Ordinary Habit Questionnaire 05: Rachel Schwartzmann
Meet Rachel Schwartzmann, our incredible contributor who brings the Stories section of our website to life. Her beautiful podcast and writing drew us in years ago, and it's been a joy to work with her ever since on interviews, gift guides, and even our For Now: Journal.
Despite the frigid temperatures, winter’s calming pace is the perfect time to nurture ordinary habits—or cultivate new ones for the year ahead. In that spirit, we’re thrilled to share this winter (habit) guide featuring our 2024 holiday gift picks and seasonal recommendations from a few of our artist partners.

Family Habits with Amanda Jane Jones
In Conversation with Joanna Rosado
Disco Tea, a small but mighty puzzle from our latest collection, embodies this notion—and Joanna Rosado, the talented artist behind the puzzle, firmly believes that the little things inspire intentional living. "The message of this illustration is my discovery that there is always something fun, interesting, and colorful in simple everyday activities," Rosado explained. "Having a cup of tea in the coziness of your home can be as enjoyable and exciting as a sparkly disco night. We just need to pay attention to the now and appreciate each moment."
An Ordinary Day in Brooklyn with Anna B. Albury
New York holds a special place in our hearts. It's the city where Ordinary Habit was born—and where we cultivated a community that values calm, play, and connection. In fact, the latter makes us think of our friend, Anna B. Albury.
While Albury works as a rug designer and freelances as an interior stylist, you may know her as the visionary behind the design-forward newsletter coolstuff.nyc. Alongside her co-founder and husband Garrett, Albury's offering is wide-ranging—from neighborhood guides and interviews to offline events. (We recently joined the duo for coolstuff's Girl Power Market with Hester Street Fair.)

Ordinary Habit Questionnaire 03: Joanna Rosado
Meet Joanna Rosado, the incredible artist behind our Disco Tea puzzle from the latest collection. Her use of color, pattern, and whimsy drew us in immediately, and we wish we could spend every day drinking tea amidst disco balls. We caught up with her and chatted about what puts her in the mood to create, what she’s been listening to, and who’s joining her ideal dinner party.
Mother’s Day with Casa de Suna
What makes a home filled with heart? Family, of course, but there is also something to be said about the rituals that keep loved ones together and engaged in the present moment. Our friends at Casa de Suna (which means “House of Daughters”) understand this sentiment.
