so far...

...winter break has been wonderful. i found this fun way to make christmas tree decorations from magazines on the crafty fox. i made mine from an old ikea catalogue : ) i really love it. it's a perfect christmas touch for my loft.

mom & i went thrifting/vintage shopping already. i bought six vintage hankies at $1 each! i really love them. i've been trying to start some kind of collection of them, so i'm excited. i also bought a nice yellow (i'm not sure what you call it, really) & a tiny "oven to table" mikasa duplex dish. i really love the colors.lastly i bought a vintage table cloth. i love the colors & i can't wait to use it for a garden party or something else proper like that : )i haven't mentioned it, but i got a neat birthday postcard in the mail from amy! thanks amy : )hope you all are well!
