{ Happy Wintery Weekend }

Happy weekend to everyone! I'm finally posting photos of my Christmas village I decorated a few weeks ago during craft night.
It's chilly here, stay warm ;)

{ Happiness is..... }

* sharing a warm spot next to the fire

* creating lasting memories with family
* A Christmas Story movie 24hrs.
* singing out loud to Christmas tunes in the car
* sorting through the years worth of photographs
* taking time out to reconnect with sisters
* warm holiday glow
* finding a comfortable yet chic holiday outfit
* snuggling with the family pups
* stocking up on leggings
* new magazine subcriptions
* making it safely through another wintery commute
* automated post office machines

May you delight in your own Happiness this season ;)

{ Memory Display }

It's times like these that really help one sort out what's really important. Family is and now more than ever are my comfort, home, and joys of my life. Browsing through my digital photo albums I pulled my favorite memories from the past year and turned them into B & W photos. I think B & W never fails to turn a color photo into a timelessly classic looking moment in time. I was inspired to group these photos into a collection with the help of the ever beautiful wall displays from Pottery Barn. These silver gallery frames look so modern and makes every photo stand out on its own, which is exactly the esthetic I am looking for. Pottery Barn now offers downloadable wall templates to help you plan your frames and space with style! Here are my favorite wall gallery's. I'm also happy to share with you some of my favorite memories that might make my memory wall in the near future ;)

{ One of a Kind Show }

How great is it to make weekend plans in the middle of the work week? If you are in the Chicago area, the One of a Kind Show would be a great show to check out this weekend. I am meeting up with some friends to check out all the goodies by indie artists. This might hopefully be the motivation I need to begin my holiday shopping ;)
