Yes, they’re trendy… which is why I was happy to only spend $20 on them. Thanks, Payless!
I’m standing on a new rug, in front of the leaf of a new table in this photo. More on that soon…

I’ve never been one for resolutions. I do however keep a running checklist of sorts in my head… ideas for the house, goals for the blog and the shop, and fun things to do. This year, I’ve decided to write them down and share them. As Holly said, “When you write something in a public place for all to see you’re much more likely to commit to doing it”.
I’m sure there will be more to do as the year progresses. I’m new at this whole resolution thing, remember?
*edit* I thought of another…
Happy New Year!
I couldn’t show this until now because it was a gift…
I had created a similar painting a few years ago for little Ross on his first Christmas, so now it was baby Francesca’s turn.
It was a simple process. I created the layout for the 16′ x 20′ canvas in Illustrator with a vector frame from istockphoto. I printed it out on 4 sheets of paper, taped them together, and traced the design onto the canvas with carbon paper. Once the pencil outline was on the canvas, I simply ‘colored’ it in with paint.
Merry first Christmas, Francesca!
As the next four days will be a blur of family and holiday hullabaloo, I thought I’d share our Christmas card with you today (instead of waiting until the 25th).
Alternately, you may be interested in the slightly more risqué version: Waitin’ for Santa.
Happy Holidays, everyone.
