I just love the artwork of Kelly Rae Roberts. Her whimsical style always makes me smile. One of my favorites is this print titled "Discovery".

Handspun Heaven

I came across this beautiful handspun yarn by Jennifer Tan of tlwoldc this morning while browsing through my Etsy favorites. Isn't it delicious? Makes me want to curl up with a nice soft blanket in front of a crackling fire. Throw in a hot peppermint patty and this is heaven. :)
