Watson Kennedy Fine Home (Where Seattleites Escape to Paris)

When I need a break from work, I like to walk down the hill (a really steep hill) to Watson Kennedy Fine Home, one of my favorite “hoity-toity” stores as my dad likes to call them.
As soon as I walk through the door, I feel like I’m on vacation. The beautiful home accessories, fragrant soaps, and classic French music playing in the background make me feel like I’ve been whisked away to Paris. Sometimes I wish I could bring my laptop with me and work from the store the rest of the day. (Someone at Microsoft must have wished for the same thing because now they have their own store on the Microsoft campus! How lucky!)
Wouldn’t you love to have a house filled with such pretty soap? Maybe you already do!




But if you don’t, why not also grab a beautiful tin of hot chocolate or tea?

I'll be grabbing this package of cookies for my trek back up the hill. Then it’s back to work and back to reality!
