Vintage touches help give a New Hampshire summer home a ‘little cottage in the woods' feel
She quickly realized she wished to honor the home's 'little cottage in the woods' feel. 'I want it to feel familiar, like you've been here before,' McSherry says. 'I also want it to be a place where I can be a more relaxed version of myself.' Antiques (and near-antiques) were crucial to achieving the lived-in look. Any furnishings that aren't vintage are inspired by ones that are. 'To me, old is comforting,' she says. The home also needed to work year-round; the family would be there as often to ski as to swim. McSherry points to the Mulberry wool-plaid fabric she used on the living room sofa as epitomizing the design concept. 'Plaid feels equally at home in a summer house as it does in a winter house,' she says. She loves that the colors are a bit off, too. 'They look dirty, faded, and worn,' McSherry says. 'Those are not bad words; I don't want clean, crisp, and fresh.' Advertisement Guests come and go through the mustard front door, where they step onto a vintage Turkish rug. A midcentury tapestry picturing stylized figures of Mayan and Aztec dancers, which remind the designer of bugs, hangs on the wall straight ahead. As much as she wants things to feel familiar, McSherry also appreciates fun, and the quirky tapestry sets the tone. New stairs to the now-finished basement are painted Benjamin Moore's Patina, a color that McSherry describes as 'dirty salmon.' Not only does the unexpected shade render the stairs a statement, it symbolizes McSherry's vow to push herself to take risks that she never would in her traditional Colonial in Newton. 'I'd tire of this color if I saw it every day, but for a weekend, it's so freaking fun,' she says. The entry is inviting thanks to colorful architectural features and vintage finds such as the 1960s Italian rattan and bamboo pendant light. Jared Kuzia Ditto for the color in the kitchen: Benjamin Moore's Caponata, a dark plum. The upper cabinets and range hood disappear into the wall — Sherwin-Williams's Ivory Lace — while the plum-colored paneled fridge, base cabinets, and furniture-like island are earthy anchors topped with black granite. The hand-painted Tabarka Studio tile backsplash echoes the carefree greenery outdoors. Stools are conspicuously absent from the island, which has glass-front cabinet doors to show off the creamy dishware inside. Not having island seating is a controversial decision, McSherry concedes, but she didn't want to clutter the space, and there's a banquette nearby. Needham woodworking studio Saltwoods made the table based on an antique McSherry loved and the vintage razor blade chairs inject woodsy Danish style. Advertisement Martha's Vineyard artist Avery Schuster Bramhall created the painting in that corner. 'I sent her swatches of the pillow fabrics and tidbits about our family, asking for a still life that speaks to where we are at this time in our life,' McSherry says. 'She incorporated motifs that represent all of us, including the dogs.' In the living area, cheerful still-life paintings hang in a line above the mood-defining plaid sofa. McSherry paired it with a slouchy sofa in a dewy morning blue Fermoie fabric that's printed with large-scale, wispy wildflowers meant to harken back to a great aunt's floral sofa. 'The flowers, butterflies, and weeds are fitting; I'm not tending to the yard here,' McSherry says. McSherry avoided safe colors for the kitchen cabinetry, opting for Benjamin Moore's Caponata. Jared Kuzia Aside from the bunk room downstairs, the home has two bedrooms just past the salmon-colored stairs. The primary bedroom is wrapped in dusty mauve, while raisin-colored beams echo the rich kilim rug underfoot. 'The tone-on-tone-on-tone is enveloping,' McSherry says. 'I never lived with this color before, but I love it.' In the guest room, wallpaper with garnet vines and spiky blooms tops the chocolate brown beadboard wainscoting of the built-in bed, where a vintage Indian throw offers a random hit of glow-y blue. The decor here in New Hampshire, McSherry says, explores her alter ego: the loose, chill side of herself that doesn't need things to match. It also represents who she hopes to become. 'I want to be the cool older lady who wears a caftan, chunky jewelry, and red glasses,' she says. 'This house shows how I can do that.'

'It's time,' Patina, a dress store that has served the valley for 40 years, is closing its doors
ROANOKE, Va. (WFXR) – A Roanoke County staple, Patina, a bridal and formal dress store, is closing its doors after 40 years in business. Its owner, Bonnie Jackson, says it's the state of the economy that's pushed her to close her longtime store. For four decades, Jackson has helped generations of young women throughout the valley find their perfect dress for any occasion. Boomtown CrossFit participates in the 'Murph Challenge' this Memorial Day 'I love my customers. I have so many good customers that come back to me and so many girls that got their homecoming and prom dresses here and now they're bringing their daughters in to get their prom dresses,' said Jackson. Jackson says she has thought about closing since the COVID-19 Pandemic, saying it really hurt her business. Now, with the threat of high tariffs on China, where Jackson gets most of her dresses, she says it's time to end this chapter. 'We couldn't survive in any kind of tariff situation where it's so high for China to ship us our goods,' said Jackson. Everything inside Patina is for sale, with huge discounts on homecoming, prom, and bridal dresses. Jackson says she has had people buying multiple dresses at a time because you 'just can't beat the price.' Last call for Beale's Tap Room in Bedford this May Jackson was going to close the store at the end of May, but since she still has so much merchandise left, she plans to stay open through June. Once Jackson has closed up shop for good with Patina, she plans to retire and do some of her favorite things: tennis and volunteer work. 'I will really miss doing this and helping all of them be beautiful. But it's time.' Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

PGA Championship brings business, spotlight to local suppliers
At 5:15 a.m. on Wednesday, Jaymin McAffrey rolled up to the front door of Quail Hollow Club and the PGA Championship. McAffrey quit golf soon after taking lessons in middle school, but this week he's in the middle of one of the sport's major championships. Dry conditions in store for start of PGA Championship McAffrey is co-owner of Verdant Bread, a Charlotte wholesale bakery chosen by concessionaire Patina Restaurant Group to provide baguettes and loaves of bread for some of the premium seating areas at Quail Hollow this week. And his arrival Wednesday morning was a personal delivery, the first of three days Verdant's breads will be served at the club during tournament week. 'It's an honor, for sure,' McAffrey told CBJ. While the order is on the smaller side for the bakery, Verdant appreciates the chance to be part of the PGA Championship and to introduce its products to a new audience. Verdant Bread is part of a baker's dozen of local and regional food companies supplying ingredients to Patina as part of the concessionaire's sourcing program. Executive chef Ed Milan told CBJ that Patina has included local flavors and food companies throughout the five years the company has been in charge of food and beverage for the PGA of America's events. The PGA of America owns and operates the PGA Championship, Senior PGA Championship, KPMG Women's PGA Championship and the Ryder Cup. Milan offers three succinct reasons for the program. It supports the local economy. The food is fresher. And most important? 'It's fun.' Read the full story on CBJ's website here.

This Japanese City Is Having a Major Hotel Moment—and We Got a Peek at the Newest Luxury Stay
Osaka, Japan, has seen an influx of new hotels in the last year—including the Waldorf Astoria Osaka and the Four Seasons Hotel Osaka. Patina Osaka is the city's newest addition. The serene and sumptuous rooms at Patina have tatami mat daybeds plus washi paper headboards inspired by Osaka Castle's impressive granite fortifications. paper headboards inspired by Osaka Castle's impressive granite fortifications. Patina Osaka's ground-floor restaurant, P72, focuses on seasonal produce sourced nearby and plucked daily from the hotel's urban garden. Consciously crafted design is found throughout the hotel, including at Sonata Bar & Lounge, where more than 15,000 pounds of upcycled vintage Japanese speakers are jigsawed across a wall. An emphasis on wellness means not only pampering spa treatments but advanced health tech, movement, and meditation sessions over an entire floor. I checked in Patina Osaka two days before its glass doors officially slid open to guests on May 1, a bit sleep deprived after a red-eye flight with my 15-month-old daughter. The graceful yet stimulating design comprised layered exterior walls that mimic rammed earth, abundant warm wood, a mesmerizing commissioned video wall projection by Takashi Makino, and tactile materials such as ethereal washi paper and grounded granite and ceramic. After being whisked 14 floors up to our corner suite on the fringes of downtown, the curtains opened to reveal Osaka Castle facing me square on, with its surrounding lush park as a halo—one that, just weeks ago, I was told, had erupted in cherry blossoms. I instantly felt at peace. That verdant vista of a piece of ancient, intricate architecture centered me in storied Osaka and proved a delightfully consistent through line for my stay. I gazed at the castle constructed in 1583 by samurai Toyotomi Hideyoshi (and later rebuilt by a different shogun) through the 20-story hotel's floor-to-ceiling glass windows while eating breakfasts of locally crafted Japanese cheeses, juicy regionally grown fruits, just-baked pastries with house-made preserves, and flavorful Basque stew with savory sausage at Iñaki. I peeked at it during swims in the sublime lap pool and while soaking in the onsen-like hot tub. I admired it over afternoon tea at Nijiri, the shoji-walled tea lounge whose name references the reverential act of kneeling or crouching to enter a tea house. It was intriguing to see how Capella Hotel Group bonded this first urban Patina hotel with its tropical island resort in the Maldives, known as a highly connected social hub with experiential art, activations, and elevated takes on sustainability. Here, despite the surrounding metropolis, the rhythms of nature are felt through design, cuisine, and what is likely Osaka's first edible garden at an urban hotel, already growing 20 different herbs—chervil, chamomile, wild strawberries, borage flowers, and six different types of mint. This contributed to beautiful surprises, moments of repose, and bold flavors on each day of my visit. Osaka, Japan, has seen an influx of new hotels in the last year—including the Waldorf Astoria Osaka and the Four Seasons Hotel Osaka. Patina Osaka is the newest luxury stay in the burgeoning city—here's my full review. Patina Osaka has 221 rooms and suites, and while they vary in view and size, all feature design hallmarks that embody a sense of place. The 3D washi paper headboards behind cognac-hued leather and wood beds—dressed in silky Frette bedding in a delicate granite color made custom for the hotel—were molded from a section of the castle's granite stone wall, ancient imperfections and all. The elegant, minimalist light pendants feel very Japanese, as do the large tatami mat–slash–window seats and ceramic wall hangings repaired with gold à la kintsugi . The bathroom, with a rain shower, copper fixtures, a large soaking tub, and a mosaic of natural gray stone, felt sumptuous and modern. I adored wearing the fluffy Garnier Thiebaut bathrobe and super-soft Japanese pajamas in jade green that matched the castle roof. The in-room yoga mat and ceramic cups for tea from the well-stocked minibar followed the same color inspiration. My Junior Suite, at 807 square feet, was pleasantly spacious with plentiful cushy places to recline, sit, and work, or play with my toddler—or let her nap in the bedroom with the lovely washi-covered doors slid shut while I took a quiet bath or hung out in the living room. Perhaps the best perk of the suite was the large balcony with ample plump seating and an atmospheric floor lamp, a glorious extension of the indoor space for prime castle viewing. When I walked through the standard 538-square-foot Deluxe Room, it felt perfectly sized, especially for a couple or solo traveler, still with a generous bathroom including a tub and a tatami daybed with a legless Japanese zaisu chair atop it. The hotel's penthouse-type accommodation is the castle-facing Patina Suite, equipped with its own turntable and sound system plus a minimalist Japanese-style meditation room. Enjoy afternoon tea and small treats at Nijiri. 'It's my baby,' Antony Scholtmeyer, the hotel's culinary director, told me, looking ecstatic as he carefully pulled up the very first fennel from the sun-drenched edible garden outside P72, the restaurant, which he conceived after spending seven years at Capella Bangkok. The ground-floor restaurant's name references the 72 micro seasons acknowledged in Japan, called shichijūni-kō , and translates to a new tasting menu every few days, depending on what the organic farm on nearby Awaji Island sends in their weekly 44-pound omakase veg box. For our lunch, he cleaned and divided the fennel into parts to poach and serve with sea bream and risotto of house-fermented lemon koji rice and garden peas. The idea behind the lunch- and afternoon tea–only restaurant is to waste as little as possible. Instead of letting the lemon tree's leaves fall and wither, the culinary team makes oils to use in Scholtmeyer's imaginative cooking. Onion skin is cooked, pureed, and dehydrated with several other simple ingredients into a wafer; oysters are wrapped in fermented cherry blossom leaves. 'With fermenting and pickling, you can reuse a lot of things you'd waste,' he told me of the conscious outlet's ethos, which is designed with local diners in mind. The top floors, 19 and 20, are dedicated to four additional dining concepts. There, the hotel's overarching theme of kisetsukan , meaning seasonal awareness, is felt most evidently at Iñaki. The Basque all-day dining restaurant features bountiful installations of preserved flowers and flora hanging from the wood-coffered ceiling to represent the four seasons. It's where we devoured breakfast with a side of Osaka Castle views, and dined on wood-fired octopus with black ink sauce, tender Iberico pork, and seawater ice cream with olive oil and almond foam that I can't stop thinking about. My toddler's spaghetti and meatballs were so delicious, I couldn't help but steal bites. Enjoy a teppanyaki experience at Barin. Barin is the hotel's high-end teppanyaki restaurant, seating 10 people at the counter and up to 16 in booths lining a long mural hand-drawn on gold leaf depicting Osaka's history. There, the two well-pedigreed chefs prepared melt-in-my-mouth Kuroge wagyu on the teppan—which originated in Kobe, not too far from Osaka—in-season spiny lobster, as well as a type of onion so sweet and delicious it blew me away. Beyond the Setouchi granite Stone Garden and Nijiri Tea Lounge, the striking spiral staircase clad in indigo dip-dyed washi paper and leading upstairs to Sonata Bar & Lounge was one of my personal favorite design moments. Up in the dynamic, moodily lit music-themed space, bartenders mixed libations inspired by Osaka's 1970 world's fair using Japanese ingredients (one described my Tiger Child cocktail—Roku gin, dry vermouth, and mirin rice wine—as a 'Japanese culture martini'). The bar also hosts weekly vinyl collector gatherings around a long communal table and a DJ booth turntable on which guests are welcome to pop on their own selection from the 6,000-strong record collection. Sonata's private room is the most atmospheric of all, with a jigsaw puzzle wall of 15,000 pounds of Japanese-made vintage analog speakers behind a long, cozy sofa. It's worth mentioning that all dining outlets went out of their way to accommodate my friend's gluten and dairy allergies, even ensuring she had her own brown sugar scones and pretty savories and sweets during our afternoon tea at Nijiri. Panoramic views of Osaka and Osaka Castle from the indoor pool. The hotel's gorgeous indoor swimming pool and jetted hot pool, along with the spa and wellness facilities, provide plenty of ways to spend a day, but there is much more to choose from when it comes to planning your time. There are two Perpetual Journeys per day, meant to invite reflection or wonder; they're complimentary for guests and change every couple of months. For the moment, these include guided castle park jogs, breathwork, stretching, and aqua walking as Patina Rise activities in the mornings. The Listening Room by OJAS, with its world-class speaker system and vinyl selection curated by sound sculptor Devon Turnbull, is the site of morning soundscape sessions. There are fermentation workshops and hands-on Soba to Ōmugi lunches happening regularly in P72, plus a weekly immersive design tour led by general manager Ellen Franke. At a charge, guests may also book a cute Patina Osaka wagon, packed with chairs, cuddly blankets, bites, and drinks for a bucolic picnic in the park. A spa treatment room. Patina Wellness sprawls across a full floor for a 15,000-square-foot glass-wrapped wellbeing oasis. The spa is well rounded not only from an indulgent and restorative treatment perspective, but in the way it weaves advanced health technology into the experiences. I tried two packages that paired both during my stay. First was an anti-aging and beauty-focused treatment that combined 20 minutes in a relaxingly warm red light bed with a Japanese Microbiome and Fermented Enzyme Facial. It featured skincare made similarly to sake, with aged fermented rice bran, and the truly divine textures made the hydrating treatment even more sensorial. Another day, after a tranquil stint in the hyperbaric oxygen chamber, I sank into bliss during a signature body treatment with light dry brushing and soft-tissue massage using rose hip-scented coconut oil. While they feel pampering, the treatments are all quite intentional in their purpose, including offerings like the infrared sauna, cryotherapy, and compression therapy. Guests can book floating stand-up paddle board yoga at the pool or personal training in the Technogym-equipped fitness center. I chose to swim slow laps in the 65-foot pool, enjoying the sight of the rippling water as warm copper light cascaded from the oversized wood-slat coffers in the soaring ceiling. Traveling with my toddler, we experienced firsthand how little ones are treated, and it involved striped teepees, sustainable wooden toys, preemptively baby-proofed furniture corners, a diaper pail and baby tub, and a white chocolate 'photograph" of the two of us as a poignant welcome amenity in our suite. On opening day, I was pleasantly surprised by the number of families and multigenerational groups that checked in. I was told the forthcoming kids' programming here may include origami sessions. In the meantime, restaurants were all equipped with high chairs, a kids' menu, and special creations arrived for my daughter on cute wooden bear plates. For our castle picnic, the staff packed milk and customized a food box with her favorite fruits (i.e. tons of blueberries and sliced banana). What truly made me feel she was genuinely welcomed was the super kind staff, who clearly relished engaging with not only my child, whom they affectionately called Mira-chan (-chan being an endearing Japanese suffix often used for kids), but other little ones, too. The Patina Membership lounge. Accessibility seemed to me a priority of the hotel, which has three ADA rooms and features accessible elevators, wheelchair-friendly halls and restaurant entries, and a handicap lift for the pool. Local production and sourcing, upcycling, zero single-use plastic, and creative reuse are at the heart of Patina Osaka's thoughtful sustainability efforts. I was impressed with how well the designers behind it made use of scraps, whether in P72's undulating 170-foot ceiling installation inspired by plant roots and made with wood bits reclaimed from an Osaka factory, the turndown satchel of fragrant hinoki wood shavings to aid in pre-sleep relaxation, or artwork by Osakan ceramist Toru Hatta made from construction waste. A sizable painting by Wataru Hatano in Sonata Bar & Lounge dubbed 'Mud' features dirt unearthed from the hotel's construction site. And one of my personal favorites, a fiery abstract piece in Iñaki's private dining room, was fashioned from curlicue cones of vibrant recycled paper. Even the hotel's green ink pens are recycled—and recyclable—cardboard. Beverages are bottled only in glass or metal, and bathrooms are stocked with large bottles of toiletries by B Corp–certified Bamford. Osaka Castle and its surrounding park—heaving with cherry trees and Japanese maples for vibrant displays in spring and fall—couldn't be closer to the hotel and is a major attraction of the foodie city. Some rooms and restaurants face Naniwa-no-Miya-Ato Park, which has an expansive green lawn and coffee shops. Though it feels on the edge of Osaka's concrete jungle, Patina Osaka is only about 10 minutes by taxi from luxury designer boutiques, the hilariously oversized 3D, kinetic signage and markets of Dotonbori, and the cool shopping-centric Tachibana Street (nicknamed Orange Street) in the relaxed, friendly, and open-minded destination. Uber is available, and there's Lupe for e-bike and scooter rentals. Guests can borrow, for no charge, one of four Mate e-bikes for spins around the park or beyond, say to Tanimachi nearby for local neighborhood vibes including charming izakayas, gyoza shops, and excellent, one-woman restaurants such as Tachiaoi. The hotel offers a shuttle three times a day to and from the closest train stations, which could take you to Kyoto in just 20-30 minutes or to the Osaka World Expo 2025, running through October 13, 2025. Patina Osaka is part of Patina Hotels & Resorts' Discovery loyalty program, allowing members to earn rewards on purchases and stays. Nightly rates at Patina Osaka start from $875. Every T+L hotel review is written by an editor or reporter who has stayed at the property, and each hotel selected aligns with our core values.
