An Inside Crush, Seasonal Home Accents Subscription Box- Mompreneur Monday Shout Out
When your friends compliment you on your home, you smile and continue pouring the Rose. When Mireille Dermer Mengel’s friends continuously complimented her on the various design choices she made in her home, she eventually decided to create An Inside Crush, a highly curated, on-trend seasonal box of home accents.
“It’s like a wardrobe: you bring in new things and swap others out, according to the season or your mood. It keeps things fresh,” Mireille says. And each season, this mompreneur of two, uses her artistic eye to select five finds that appear at your doorstep ready to be woven into your family’s life.
