Happy Friday friends! And a happy reminder that one week from today, on Friday, December 1 I’ll be offering a FREE online workshop in partnership with my friends at @spoonflower as part of their multi-week Craft Friday programming.

I'm grateful for you, my friends! Wishing you a wonderful Thanksgiving. 🍂

✨🎂✨ Well friends, it's that time once again for my annual ode to my mother's excellent chocolate cake, and so much gratitude for another trip around the sun. Many thanks for hanging out with me here in this little corner of the online world. And if you feel so compelled to help me celebrate today, let's lean into some little joys: open the door for a stranger, return a library book, or call an old friend. 🥳❤️
