What a blessing a glorious stream of beautiful timeless designs are ever blooming alongside world events and tragedy. We need beauty and the comforts of art, creativity, and home. When February arrives each year, I always have a sense of OKAY, WE MADE IT. The month tends to fly for me even as winter stretches quite long in my region. I hope you’ll give some love to these recent winter stories you may have missed the first time around. So much dreaming and scheming we can do awaiting spring, no matter what the future holds.
