Christmas is over, but I still really like this post about designing a kitchen inspired by Christmas cookies!
Swap out the tea towel and wreaths (or just their ribbons) and it’s a great look year-round.

January 10, 2016 at 4:35 pmGreat links! I was a huge fan of the Pumpkins back in the 90s and loved Mellon Collie. I thought the album artwork (and the coordinating videos!) were pretty cool at the time, but never gave a whole lot of thought to them – til I read that article. Thanks for sharing! Loved the Far Side/C&H article too. Apparently the 90s (95, in particular!) weren’t a wasteland afterall. ;)
