This week we’ve been revisiting our favorite summer stories. Looking ahead, a few goings-on of note:

- And the award for cleverest re-use goes to: the shocking transformation of TP packaging into appealing gift wrap.
- On view in Kinderhook, NY: The Commercialization of Shaker Knits, curated by Emily Adams Bode Aujla of Bode fame, and tracing Shaker influence on our modern athletic wear.
- Admiring this tour of the one-time NYC apartment of Alex Tieghi-Walker, founder of Tiwa Select. (“For a magical moment I lived overlooking Basquiat’s former studio and the Great Jones Street fire station,” Alex writes. “Low wooden beams that made it feel more like a Parisian attic than anything else.”)
- The Good, the Hot, and the Wormy—or: backyard composters, explained.
- Annie spent the week at the Fine Arts Work Center in Provincetown—and browsed the selection of trusty workwear and utilitarian upgrades at Clove & Creek.
- Appealingly simple summer arrangements.
- Keep cool with $110 off water filters with code REA1 at the Waterdrop Official Store, now through July 10; read more here.
- It’s the last days to see artist Thomas Jackon’s ephemeral, pastel-hued installation at McKegney Green in Tiburon, CA. “It will constantly be transforming, depending on wind conditions and the time of day when you see it,” the artist told Datebook. The public art exhibit is on view through June 9.
- And maybe you can bottle summer. Here’s a start.
