The Calm Before The Storm

They are forecasting anywhere from 4-12 inches of snow to hit us before daybreak tomorrow.  In fact, it's snowing as I type.  Sigh. 

I made this infinity scarf by stitching together the ends on a strip of fleece.  Since I have to deal with being freezing while outside, I am pretty much planning to just make scarves out of any and every material I can think of, lol.  Next, I want to make one on ivory lace, to be worn with my faux leather jacket.  Leather and Lace?  YES, please!

It was so comforting having the softness of this fleece up against my face in the chilling temps. This jacket isn't the warmest, but it is lined and helped to keep out the enemy = the wind.

Can you tell that I hate the winter?  I will be a ball of HAPPINESS when the warmer temps arrive in a few months.  Just wait and see. :)



xoxo, thanks for reading!

  10. Omg, polka dots gloves. I'm all about the details, I love it. The blue coat looks nice too. I avoid certain colors (don't know why) I might try blue now. And finally, I love your hair. I'm in the process of going natural & feel so lonely and lost in this journey sometimes. I'm doubting if I should get a weave. Is it that bad for the hair??
