PULSE vol. 21

LeeAnn Cline • October 27, 2022

welcome to the PULSE. we have a lot of new subscribers so it is time to re-introduce myself & this publication. my name is LeeAnn & if you've seen me in the showroom, you know i'm the one that wears the hats! i'd like to personally welcome you to MHF's PULSE blog written by moi. 

i'm a mom of 2 little dudes (both taller than me) & i live in the north end of boise. 5 things i love: new restaurants, fonts, furniture, design, boise state football & MUCH more. 

the PULSE is our space to hang out together. i'll be sharing markdowns, collections fresh to the floor, recipes, free fonts, design tips, trendy new eateries, travel tips & such. 


october was a beautiful month. we were treated with warm weather & leaves changing. (now all of a sudden winter is here 😤) for those of you who have been reading the PULSE for a while, you know that i had a little niece born last october. WELL, we celebrated her 1st birthday this month!




okay, this is a fun one! totally a grab bag of positive, upbeat jams. i might call this the "everything's gonna be alright" list. 


from artists like fleetwood mac & johnny nash to passion pit & the mountain goats. perfect for the gym, a morning walk, or making dinner...listen here! 

where does your little one want to go today? from magical games to retreats with soft toy friends, our in-stock youth furniture will ensure their imagination can take off. *and also help build the best forts!*  if you see a bed your little one will love, call & purchase over the phone! 


okay, this brown sugar top grain leather chair is the perfect addition to your home for fall. loving the antique brass nail heads, and the box seat cushion. peep the matching welt trim lines - such a classic look!  take home today: $999

regular price $1,189

square, rectangle, plush, loomed, or fluffy... at MHF we love rugs in equal parts for their ability to liven up a room, and well, just the fact that they make things so darn cozy. the right rug creates a sense of definition in your space. don't purchase a sofa without one! this is a spotlight on one of our favorite collections - the Gemini. available in 2'3" X 7'6"  |  3'10" X 5'5"   |   5'3" X 7'6"  |   6'7" X 9'6"   |   7'10" X 10'10"   |   9'10" X 12'10" 

it's the season of gift giving; whether it be for a hosted dinner party, or actual holiday parties. it's easy to fall into the trap of buying lavish, impractical items that people won't end up using. there's something to be said for prioritizing function while you're shopping. you can't beat giving someone presents that bring joy to their day-to-day life.

i am obsessed with this new sectional. let me introduce the elyza. available in linen *as seen*, grey & white...oh my gosh. WIDE modern track arms with fluffy feather down cushions. the best part of this collection is the modular design. you can configure this collection any way to fit your space. LC's favorite part: each side is finished -but does NOT have connectors. let's create an open ended gathering space! love this look. 

i finally made the time to go check out CRAVE, in eagle. wow! you guys know i love a good wine list & a rooftop space...i wish i would have gone here, sooner!
the wine list: fantastic
the outdoor seating: fantastic
the service: fantastic
the chicken pappardelle...oh. my. gosh.

welcome to the pulse! how is everyone? welcome to this month’s volume of the pulse, your go-to roundup of everything in the world of furniture, design, local boise tidbits & more. from new arrivals, to recipes to fonts - you’ll find it all here! i wanted to send a thought of gratitude for opening & loving my monthly blog. i know inboxes are overflowing these days & i truly appreciate you making space for the pulse in yours. let's talk about that pasta image in the header! alright, you all know how much i loved juniper & shared that they were closing a few volumes back. well, i finally got the courage to try the newest concept from STLG: rustica . (where juniper used to be) it’s beautiful, they left the old wood bar, and the pizza oven. we tried the burrata app (yum!) and i ordered the grande meatball! haha! yep there’s a huge meatball in there! it was great, and i can’t wait to try some of the pizzas!
