BEST OF LAST WEEK.





A little late, but since I was out-of-town, I thought I'd still share some goodies from last week. I had a lovely time back home in southern California with the family. I hope you all had a great weekend and are ready for a brand new week ahead. (embroidery art above by Jazmin Berakha)

ten images of inspiration : a cabin in the woods.





















A group of my friends are up in Northern Washington, situated in a cabin in the snowy woods. And now, I just can't stop thinking of having my own little cozy, rustic retreat surrounded by trees, lakes, and fog. I'm getting a bit lost in cabin daydreams today.
