sunday morning find.

on weekend mornings i love to wake up, make a pot of coffee and cinnamon rolls to eat in bed while reading my latest issue of real simple magazine. this morning i found a fabby idea for winter home decor. here's my spin on the idea which for the wreath, ribbon and letter, cost only $5.50. (the silver letter alone in real simple's version was $18.) not only is it festive, but thrifty and matches my home. a sure wreath to keep up all season long.

going postal.




















while its not even thanksgiving yet, christmas is coming...

one of my favorite things to do every year at work is to design the christmas card. this year we are going postal with a 4x10 graphical postcard.

head banger.
