The year may have just started, but some designers are already looking toward the next season when it comes to home decor—including Syd and Shea McGee.
The McGees head up Studio McGee, a McGee & Co. online store, a partnership with Target, and a Netflix show—all of which align with the couple's signature modern farmhouse aesthetic. Their new 2024 Spring and Outdoor Collection delivers, giving the organic, textural, and clean details McGee & Co. is known for. The collection is drenched in a color palette of varying shades of blue, ochre, tan, coral, and persimmon.
“Inspired by the refreshing nature of spring, this collection beautifully balances traditional details with modern touches, familiar comforts, and a renewed perspective,” McGee & Co. founder Shea McGee said in a press release.
“Some of the design elements you’ll see carried throughout is understated opulence like skirted and fringed upholstery, luxurious textiles like linen and waffle weave, and handmade touches like block print patterns and inset embroidery. Our spring collection is all about new comforts and old charm.”

In 2024, design is taking a turn away from pastels and towards the boldness of jewel tones.
I’m Maria Nieuwenhof from Quebec, Canada (Zone 5). I was going through my pictures over the last few days and trying to figure out what annuals I will start from seeds this year for my bouquets. When I go to see friends, or when I visit my father in Montreal, or when I have an event to go to I bring one or more bouquets. I started in late April with my first bouquet that had daffodils and ended in early November with achillea.

Some say that hardware is the jewelry of the kitchen, and that certainly appears to be the case based on the kitchen hardware trend predictions for 2024.
Although it would be nearly impossible for any plant lover to choose just one favorite, here are a few of the standouts that look especially good in my Zone 6 Michigan garden at the peak of the growing season.
If you’re a gardener—and since you picked up this magazine I’m guessing you are—you probably get peppered with plant questions all the time. I know I do. Take Thanksgiving just this past year. My dad was looking for some trees that would “subtly block” his neighbors who had recently put a pool in their backyard. So in between doling out mashed potatoes and deciding if I wanted apple or pumpkin pie for dessert, I pulled out Dirr’s Hardy Trees and Shrubs from the nearby bookshelf to spark some suggestions. (That illustrated encyclopedia was a Christmas gift a few years back to help my dad make plant choices without my help. Its successfulness in doing so is still up for debate.) This same scenario takes place at summer picnics, children’s birthday parties, or even on planes when my seatmate asks what I do for a living. After I answer, it’s common to hear, “Wow, that’s so interesting. Listen, I have this spot where I need something …” Most of these inquiries center around trees too—and I get it. A tree is an investment with a capital “I.” Not only is a tree the single most expensive plant you will likely purchase for your landscape, but it is also the longest lived. Trees don’t like to be moved, they generally require a bit more effort to get established than a perennial or shrub, and they are usually the focal point of a specific area. For all of these reasons, everyone wants to choose the right tree.

Little is more discouraging than discovering healthy and recently-planted spring borders and developing vegetable crops damaged or eaten by rabbits; it’s enough to bring the Elmer Fudd out in the mildest of gardeners. Annoyingly rabbits are most active feeders early in morning and at dusk, and so often hard to spot; they also seem attracted to newly-planted areas. But by employing a range of tactics it is possible to reduce problems.
