You know how much this means to me!

April is Donate Life Month 💙
And April 1 is Donate Life Living Donor Day.

To celebrate, we’re launching something new:

The First Event Back Scholarship

A new initiative designed to support living donors as they return to movement, competition, and community after donation.

Our goal is simple:

✔️ Raise $500
✔️ Fund 5 donors
✔️ 25 people giving $20

Because that first event back is more than just a race or hike. It’s a powerful milestone.

Over the next few days, we’ll be recognizing First Event Back stories from our community and the impact these moments have.

Be part of making those moments possible.

We came across the base of this antique postal cabinet tucked inside a warehouse called Chuck’s Garage. I fell in love with it immediately. It wasn’t practical and it definitely wasn’t part of a plan, but I knew we weren’t leaving without it. We told Mr. Chuck we’d be back with a U Haul.

That weekend we went picking in Anderson, South Carolina, and on the way home we decided to take a different route. No reason. Just one of those small, unplanned turns.

We stopped at Memory Lane Antiques in Commerce… and I still can’t fully explain what happened next.

Sitting there was the top.

The exact match to the base we had just bought. Same cabinet. Same piece. Found 45 miles away, on a completely different day.

We rented the U Haul, went back, and brought both pieces home where they finally belong together again.

Now it sits in our home filled with old postcards. My grandmother used to write to me when I was little, and now her words live inside something that was built to carry messages. Even some of the original names from the town are still on the cabinet.

When we purchased the top, there was a printed photo of the Old Mayfield store & post office where this cabinet once lived. It’s framed and sits on the cabinet today.

I don’t think this was luck.

I think some pieces are meant to find you.

And that’s what a collected home is all about.

If you love pieces with history and meaning, stay awhile 🤍

Design with meaning, not momentum.

Design isn’t about keeping up.
It’s about slowing down long enough to choose what actually belongs.

Before you buy something new, pause and ask yourself
Does this add a story or just fill a space?

The homes that feel the most lived in and loved are never rushed. They’re collected over time, layered with memory, texture, and meaning. When you curate over time your home starts to feel like YOU, not a showroom.

Dovetail House is being built slowly, on purpose.

Not around trends.
Not around perfection.

Around collected spaces, antique and vintage pieces, and homes that tell a story over time.

This is the beginning of a space rooted in meaning, memory, and lived-in beauty.

I’m glad you’re here.

On this episode of “Living Life with Leta”, I sit down with author M.J. James ()to dive deep into her powerful new book, Heal the Hustle. We both get real and vulnerable about the pressure to keep pushing, the burnout that follows, and the journey to true healing.

This book isn’t just a conversation—it’s a tool for breaking the cycle and finding balance. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by the hustle, this episode is for YOU.
