I’m officially back at it after a long and wonderful break.  It was great to take some much needed time off to visit family, host many guests in our home and of course enjoy the down time!  Here in Texas, we had a White Christmas and it really did remind me that the spirit of Christmas is really the greatest gift.

 

 

Speaking of gifts, I wanted to share a few that really touched my heart. I have been fortunate enough to work with wonderful people. People that have continued to inspire me and I have loved sharing so many positive work experiences with them!  My darling friend and rep from The Rug Company surprised me with these Toubkal Studio Collection Pillows, they look so fabulous on our sofa…and of course the girls love them. That’s the true sign of a great gift right? Ha!

 

 

I also received a handmade gift from another vendor that has been a bright spot for Shop Ten 25 this past year. Mari Robeson is the talented illustrator that created the category pieces for our  Shop home page. I LOVE LOVE LOVE her work and was beyond excited when she gave me the thumbs up to add her pieces to The Shop.  I arrived home from visiting family out of town and opened this gorgeous macaroon tea towel calendar from Mari.  It went up on the cork board ASAP…it’s just to fabulous to get dirty!!  You can snag one of your own HERE…she even has a print if your looking for something to hang!
