After our house fire in 2010, she made a video for us that I’ve watched over and over again and has been such a source of healing for me. I love that she works hard but also guards her margin. I love seeing the world through her eyes. Hers was the first blog I stayed up until 3am to read ALL the archives from. Side note: She’s the cornerstone of my internet world. I knew I had to find a cheap, easy way to do it. Then my friend Nester posted about her snowball wreath. It’s beautiful-of the drop dead gorgeous variety. My jaw dropped the first time I saw the snowball wreath from Anthropologie.
