five little things that made my week.
1. this little paper tree.
{because it was left behind by a visiting grammy.}
2. these bits of color.
{destined for tiny presents for tiny people.}
3. this popcorn string.
{for still being mostly intact after several nibbles from a human mouse in this house.}
4. these bags.
{for keeping wintry things organized.}
5. this stack of books.
{cause nothing beats a good seasonal book pile.}
other things:
the best kind of maine souvenir, made pretty.
how to report a bias crime in new york city.
the sturdiest part of its shell.
ps. there’s a newsletter coming later this afternoon with a special treat just for you.

Fox’s Garden is a major favorite at our house:) Happy weekend!
Tote bags on hooks. What a great idea. I like the idea of a light colour so it almost blends in with the wall and looks so tidy. Thanks for the inspiration! I’m in major need of a way to wrangle our mitts and toques!
What are you making with the ribbons? They’re so quietly festive.
Fairy wands, protest sticks, scepters, call them what you will 😉
Oh! Those pillows remind me of a field trip for a class in undergrad where we had to go to Maine and count species in the tidal pools. Too bad they’re sold out!
Might I suggest “Santa Mouse” for your winter books? If you celebrate Christmas, it’s a really sweet one.
Erin, this paper tree is so nice. I would really love to make one… do you have any tips how should I start? Thanks!
The Tomten is my favorite Christmas/holiday book. I grew up (and my parents still live) in an old New England farmhouse with an attached barn and I was always comforted by the idea of a tomten visiting on those quite snowy nights.
I see your Tomten and I approve.
As usual, your end of the week post brought me a lot of joy. Thank you!
The Tomten and The Tomten and the Fox are favorites in our home too.
Tomten! Such a nice little fellow.
And thank you so much for the link to my post — what a delightful surprise.
thanks for the inspirations! I love the popcorn garland 🙂 we’ll definitely do one of these :)… Cécile
The tomten is my very favorite children’s book, so sweet to see it here.
Happy winter!!
