Have you seen the winter issue of
3191 Quarterly? If you haven't I encourage you to get yourself a copy, a whole year's subscription if you can swing it they are all wonderful!
Stephanie and
MAV share a list of their winter essentials and it inspired me to think of my own.
- Yarn, thread, fabric. Must have something working in my hands to keep them warm.
- Tea. A warm cup of tea to warm my insides. I love also just sitting the cup against my chest and breathing in the steam and aromas of the tea.
- Learning a new skill. I realize each winter for the past three years I've taken a class of one sort or another. First, international ethics for my bachelor's degree, beginning quilting, and this year the art of knitting!
- Netflix. Ahh netflix, what would we do without you?
- Reading materials. A book
, a magazine
, and a warm blanket to cuddle up with in the mornings on the couch or in bed during the dark evenings.
- Pink Fuzzy Socks. They keep my toes warm and toasty. Hopefully next year I'll have a pair of homemade knit ones!
What are your winter essentials?
This is such a great idea for a post! May I steal it? (I will definitely credit you!) Also, even though I don't really craft, I've been really enjoying your blog lately. You're making some really beautiful things!
ReplyDeleteAww shucks, thanks Tabitha! Absolutely go ahead and steal it, I did. I'd love to see your winter essentials.
