HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MOLLY 🥂 If you’re lucky, you get to work for someone who makes you better at what you do. If you’re really lucky, she makes you see the world a little differently, too.
A letter from your MKS girls, on the occasion of another trip around the sun:
Dear Molly, This year brought six installs, twelve projects, a few record-breaking numbers, more awards and speaking engagements than we can reasonably fit in a caption, and a calendar that would make even the most organized among us reach for a glass of w**e. Two MKS w**es launched, actually. You created your first drapery collaboration, crossed oceans in search of things with a little more soul, made your way across the nation for site visits, gallivanted through New York, wandered the fields of Round Top, and found yourself somewhere between European holidays and very full workdays. And somewhere in all of it, you kept doing what you do best: making things matter.
You have a way of seeing the potential in a bare room, an old object, an idea, a person, the planet. You remind us that the best things are rarely the newest, and that a little imperfection is usually the point.
Cheers to you. To the big ideas and the last-minute pivots. To the women beside you, the people who trust you with their homes, and the life happening in between it all.
And while we could spend this entire caption listing what you’ve accomplished (we did consider making a spreadsheet), what we really want to celebrate is the woman behind it. The founder. The woman who can turn an ordinary Tuesday into something worth remembering *oysters included.
Molly, we hope this next trip around the sun brings you all the things you so often give to everyone else: room to dream, reasons to celebrate, a few beautiful surprises, and the kind of everyday magic that doesn’t need documenting to count.
We’ll be right here, cheering you on, raising a glass, and occasionally reminding you that not every good idea needs to happen by Thursday.
Happy birthday to our favorite person to build a beautiful thing with.
With all our love, MKS 🤎
