It already the end of November! I always feel like the coming festive season is fun and chaotic and utterly exhausting. Don’t you think?
Iโve been trying to slow down a bit where possible, play with my girls without any distractions, not think about lists of things I need to do (and trust me, it’s a huge list!) and just be.
In the meantime, here are my November faves!
Making
This year I have opted out of green and red Christmas decor, instead of going with white tones. And this wreath is a must-have!
Iโve started going phone free on (most of) Sundaysโฆ I left my phone in my bedroom (otherwise I find myself scrolling like a robot) and do something with my girls insteadโฆ Last weekend it was coloring this amazing book.
Stay tuned for an amazing project in the coming days, it will keep you busy from December 1st to 24th!
Nesting
I really want to try this wrap-around gallery wall, I have my staircase too empty, time to decor it!
Planning (aka dreaming about) a new decor projectโฆ in our half bathroom! I will knit another leaf garland and some baskets for all the little stuff!
Reading
Read a few more books this month!
Including re-read one of my favorite, His dark materials by Philip Pullman. I’m planning to add it to my Christmas gift list for my grandma.
Not a book but still enjoyableโฆ I have discovered the Vogue podcast, Knitter Views. I am way behind but I have listened to one and has been a delight.
Going
This month I discovered TreasureFest! It brings together the best of everything that defines the culture of San Francisco at the beloved Treasure Island.
A vivid market filled with clothes and jewelry by local designers, rare items, vintage collectibles, and more.
And I plan to go to see the Day Of The Dead Procession and Festival of Altars at The Mission District. It starts at 7 pm so for a few years I will pass.
