Seeking Warmth

You guys, it snowed again yesterday. Again! Oof. My blood has not yet thickened enough to withstand a snowstorm every weekend. I know that puts me firmly in wuss territory up here, but the continual presence of sleet, flurries, and slushy ice puddles has me roaming around the house wrapped in a blanket (when I can't dive back under the covers and burrow, anyway. Yes, I am super lame in the dead of winter).

One of these lovely, hand-processed wool blankets from Mexchic would be perfect for such wintry non-activity. Don't they look cozy?

Read more about Mexchic here - their collective approach and focus on traditional methods and techniques is inspiring.

Little Buddies

These pet portraits by Kate Pugsley are cracking me up this morning. Those faces!

White Out

Some snowy prints inspired by our weekend blizzard. It was our first one since we moved to Massachusetts. My arms are still hurting from shoveling all the snow!
