Courtney Halverson Instagram – It’s been awhile, but I still remember this unkind message I recieved. I’d shared my laundry drying in a hotel room in a photo and received a message to the effect of “this whole romanticizing thing is so insufferable. It’s just clothes drying in a bland room”. But I’ve always felt – there’s a kind of magic in finding the beauty in the ordinary, isn’t there?

I think, if nothing else, my camera roll is a testament to that. Sure, there are the big moments; the sweeping views, the vacation photos, the special occasions and dressed up events. But in a much greater quantity there are the “in-betweens” as I call them; the flowers and weeds growing in equal measure on our hillside, the pasta I threw together for lunch that looked nice on our windowsill, my morning coffee in bed, and yes – photos of the way the light happened to fall on my laundry drying one very ordinary day.

So while this isn’t exactly an ordinary moment (hello dreamy laundry line in Tuscany) I hope it serves just a little as a love letter to all the “in-betweens” I capture and treasure.

ps : so many of you have asked and I’m pleased to share that my locket with @monicarichkosann is coming back this month. It’s been a dream to see how many of you fell in love with it the first time, and I wear mine daily. So thrilled to be able to share it again! 🐚 | Posted on 07/Jul/2024 18:39:22

Courtney Halverson Instagram – Maybe I watched Annie a little too many times as a child, but to me there has always been something so beautiful and so nostalgic about a locket. A secret little treasure box that you can wear around your neck, a place to hold memories and to keep them close to your heart. 

I cannot express how thrilling it has been to launch this small collection of lockets with @monicarichkosann. The amount of messages and texts and congratulations has been so surreal – and it’s a bit of a “pinch me” moment. I’ve long since admired MRK pieces and when the idea came about to create a collection (alongside Monica herself) I said yes immediately. My first thought, as the collection came to life, was to photograph the pieces in Ireland – I still can’t believe it came true

This collection means so much to me, and the shell shape was inspired by the feeling of walking along a beach, finding little hidden treasures, buried in the sand. If you’re as much of a hopeless romantic as I am, then please know these lockets were made with you in mind. 

ps : as of right now, the collection (in both sterling silver as well as 18k gold) is available now through April, and hopefully beyond then. 🐚
