The last weekend in October... How did we get here so fast?

I’ll start with a fair warning: things are about to get a little more Christmas-y around here! I know some folks feel strongly about that, so if you’re not ready just yet, feel free to tuck these emails away until you are. This week brought several new posts on the blog, with more on the way! I'm excited because I have a few holiday home decor ideas I want to bring to life. Crafting homemade Christmas decor has become one of my favorite parts of this season.

Speaking of handmade, I’m also working on adding some original artwork to my shop! As I mentioned in last weekend’s email, I’ve been painting more of my bottle brush tree pieces, plus a few framed works featured in past shows. I’ll also be selling some of my quick morning studies, along with a few whimsical holiday pieces you may have seen on Instagram. And I’ve got even more ideas up my sleeve if time allows, so stay tuned.

In the meantime, here’s what’s new on the blog: several sweet treats and a delicious savory addition. So grab a cozy blanket, a cup of something warm, and dive into all the goodness waiting for you!
