❄️ Happy Winter Solstice + Snowy Cabin Room Spray

Hello, Reader, Winter Solstice officially occurs tomorrow morning (7:03 am my time), and I think that's close enough to start feeling excited about it! I have a few posts about this that you may enjoy, like this guide to slow living in winter and these winter solstice reflection prompts. Or, take a peek at the Winter Issue of The Handmade Year! I just released it a couple of days ago, and it's packed with ways to make the most of this special season. Homemade Holiday GiftsOn Facebook, I've been sharing a different homemade holiday gift every day since December 1st. It's been so much fun, and I LOVE seeing everyone's creations! I keep sharing new posts, and just have to mention a couple of my favorites here. Snowy Cabin Room Spray

The show went really well, though, and I met lots of great customers and vendors! But this week has all been...
Hi, Reader, If you ever need a dessert quickly, blondies and brownies are my go-to. One bowl, throw it together, then bake! They're great warm on their own, with ice cream for special occasions, or even just standing over the kitchen sink for a quick snack. P.S.
