Hope this missive finds you in front of a fan, reading a book, eating an ice cream, in the front seat on the way to a lake, or otherwise soaking up summer. Ahead, 19 things we’re noting this weekend:

• Limited-edition linens to admire—”two embroidery worlds together on a single piece: my line-based backstitch embroidery, and their traditional Ukrainian cross-stitch patterns in black and red.”
• Ooh, Plain Goods is opening another location (where else? in Maine).
• A scullery kitchen that’s made to do “exactly what it was always supposed to do: be practical.”
• Love this built-in bed and desk in a renowned architect’s place in Ecuador (hat tip: Annie).
• Block Shop sample sale alert!
• Big news: One of our all-time favorite cool-kid spots in Copenhagen is now shoppable online.
• In keeping with this month’s Editors’ Cut theme: shells as wine glasses in Navarra, Spain.

• Our favorite triple threat, gardener/photographer/ceramicist Frances Palmer, has a new exhibition of her prints and terra-cotta pieces at Berkshire Botanical Garden from August 15 to October 5.

• Kier’s favorite new Instagram account.
• When the plants match the walls.
