sometimes I am surprised how inspirational three days in a different environment can be
the streets in New York in Fall are so pretty
and somehow the fabric and yarn I found at Purl Soho
were matching the environment again
pretty displays at Purl Soho
it was so great to visit their shop and actually see the designs from their blog in real life
and as I unpacked my suitcase
I found out the pictures I took at the huge and amazing Anthropolgie store at Rockefeller Center
as well as the notebooks and bowls I got there ~ are matching the color scheme in this post too
the Botanical Notebook Collection from Rifle Paper Co.
those of you who have been visiting here for a while, may remember I got their 2010 Christmas cards
I simply love the designs by Anna Bond
full of inspiration ~ I am happy to be home again in Canada
though it still feels a little strange, Canada is home now
well, after all we have been here for only a little more than 2 months
for you my sweeties
on New York wrapping paper, the Christmas ornament heart
because you are always here ~ home of creJJtion
and you make me smile, you inspire and encourage me every day
