Holiday Inspiration Part 3

I'm working through Wednesday and although it's only Tuesday, it's proving to be a long week. It's hard to work when all you want to do is drink egg nog and play with new gifts. Speaking of gifts, I bought myself the Moleskin set I've been wanting for so long. They're even better in person and I am not above treating myself for the holidays!
Below are some more holiday images to get us in the mood:

Some quick housekeeping...
The shop will be closed starting tomorrow 12/23 and will reopen 12/28. I'll be adding lots of new designs and vintage pieces after my mini-vacation that I can't wait to share with you!
You can still enter to win two items from the shop over at Iva Messy.
Starting tomorrow, posting on the blog will be intermittent at best. As hard as it is for me to stay away from all of you, I think it's important that we all focus on our families and loved ones and take some time for ourselves. This is my 467th post in LESS than a year, which is a lot of blabbering! I definitely think a couple days off will do me well plus a small absence makes the heart grow fonder, right? Although, truth be told, I'm certainly already plenty fond of you, dear reader.
xo,
Christina
