Hashtag: #btbglamourshots
Why we love this On-Island IG account:
The food pics alone are enough to keep you scrolling through their feed but it’s the feeling of love in every photo that captured our attention. Every dish displayed is reminiscent of farm to table style, created with mostly local ingredients and made in house with love. Even the donuts made by BTB in Edgartown has a rustic, made at home in a country kitchen feel. And don’t even get us started on their #btbglamourshots that showcases their staff and local vendors. It’s beyond adorable. If you love the rustic, farmhouse look and feel of food, coffee and atmosphere, this feed is for you.

3. Island Cocktail Company

Why we love this On-Island IG account:
Craft cocktails will forever be on our list of “things to try” because all we seem to do is gaze at the images on this feed. Fairly new to the IG game is Island Cocktail Company based on the island on MV. Think boozy yet gorgeous cocktails perfectly garnished with sprigs of cilantro, wedges of watermelon and citrus. Pink, lemony yellow and rich, red-hued drinks seem to be the way to go. You’ll be inspired to host a party just so you can serve up a few of these Instagram-worthy drinks and call it a day. Better yet, contact them and have them set up and tend bar for you and your guests, so you’re free to sip and relax all night long!

With a mantra that says, “All I see is magic” – if you scroll through Malin’s feed, you’ll find magic in every single photo. It’s as if you were placed in the countryside and left to stroll amongst the dreamiest of flowers and taste the yummiest, French country baked goods.

10. Union Artisan

Why we love this IG account:
Fairly new to Instagram, Union Artisan handcrafts all of their custom furnishings by using salvaged and repurposed materials gathered from their community of Capitol Hill in DC. Images of salvaged wood combined with steel and fashioned into furniture pieces caught our attention immediately. The beautifully handcrafted, earthy and masculine statement pieces are enough to initiate a total renovation of your home decor.
