I painted stripes in my new bedroom. I really thought it would lend an elegance to the room, especially since they are only on one wall, the wall I see when I wake up in the morning.
I’m not a professional designer or painter, but I like them. I like them …

I spent a lot of time making cookies today.
Last year I ate my words and started making Christmas cookies with Fuller. Today I was making them so I could get out of the house this evening! There was a cookie exchange with women in our church and it was …

Fuller made this wreath today. I had leftover stars from the Advent pocket project, so I thought a wreath of stars would look nice. Tomorrow we will hang it in Fuller’s window.
