it's the little things: grasshopper tea & tree hugging
Happy Friday!! This week seemed to fly by to me. I've been really busy getting orders out and finishing up some custom artwork. Can't wait to show some of my latest custom pieces to you next week! :)
This season is packed full of gratitude for the little things. Thanks for joining me each week-- I'm thankful for a place to record them and love sharing them with you every Friday! So here are my little things for the week.
... grasshopper tea in my new Anthropologie initial mug. I brew some hot peppermint tea and throw in a spoonful of Trader Joe's sipping chocolate. YUM.
... the conquest for the perfect tree {and um, hugging it when we find it!}. Tonight we get to dress it up pretty while watching It's a Wonderful Life, my very favorite Christmas movie. Cannot wait!
... I love looking up at my inspiration board that hangs above my desk and seeing pretty prints, business cards and encouragement from some of my favorite people. I realized that most of the prints and artwork in my studio has been gifted to me by sweet, creative friends. That makes me feel so loved.

ReplyDeleteI love your mug! I may have to make the long distance trip to our nearest Anthro to check these out. They look so adorable!
And I envy you a real tree! Ours is fake and pre-lit but holds up to our dog well. I think maybe it is the amazing smell I miss the most :)
