way. There are interviews with local experts who teach readers how to channel the Maine way of
life (chop firewood hunt for flea market finds and weather the summer without AC) and
step-by-step projects for Maine-inspired home decor including printed tea towels mussel-shell
votives and balsam fir pillows. Expertly curated itineraries include design shops galleries
restaurants hotels and more. And finally the Remodelista team highlights the Maine 25?:
classic beautiful products that are built to last sourced from local makers. It adds up to
the perfect travel companion design inspiration and how-to manual all rolled into one!
