Giving Thanks

Happy Thanksgiving and warmest blessings to you all! Today is Chicago's first **snowfall** & what perfect timing; a nice day to stay snuggled indoors and heat up a cup of apple cider. It was an unusually warm 60 degrees just a day ago and golden maple leaves showered the sidewalks. I am thankful though, that it is feeling more like the season. Ol' man winter needs his turn too!

My studio is starting to come together, still loads of unpacking and organizing to do. Here is a pic of my studio "pre-rehab" when we purchased the house, previously it was a bedroom. Oh yes, the previous owner's furniture/ contents was all left here for us to sift through and haul out, but that is another story.. LOL!

Unpacking/ in progress:

Enjoy the day~ give thanks for the little things that make life special. Here's a pic just to make you smile!
