This is a little preview of a project I was working on this week. I've been thinking a lot about how I want to just soak up this Christmas season but also not get too stressed. I am excited for baking, parties, and nesting. I don't really do the shopping thing (too many years in retail). However, I am making an exception to that rule for these two lovely events happening over the weekend here in Portland:
The Sunday Best Sale. Wonderful vendors here including Sara Barner.
What are you all up to this weekend? Hope it's cozy + warm!

Great Blog! I have been on a frenzy with fresh greens!! It looks like a winter wonderland! All the best, CC
cozy and nesting…my two favorite words. my friends actually have a room in their little monteal home called the nest which is reserved for strictly cozy times! my family built a skating rink in the back yard and i am really excited to skating and being peaceful.
im so fiercely canadian sometimes it scares me!

oh! excited to see more details of this project.
I think the holiday season started out just right with the snow to put us all in the spirit of giving. Happy Jolly Winter to you.
I’ve been packing up gifts to mail to family and friends. That’s a lovely little shot…looking forward to seeing the rest of the project! You take such lovely pictures of little everyday details. What camera do you use? I get so frustrated with my little digital because it seems incapable of taking good pictures in anything other than the perfect afternoon sunlight.
Happy holidays!

Thanks for your comment! I use a Nikon D40 usually with the lens it came with but for this shoot I used a 50mm 1.4 lens. It’s a really good one. It’s hard to take photos with this winter light.
hi, thanks for the mention! hope you enjoyed the sale.
