I am from small-town America with big town ideas. I am from anything with chocolate and nothing with vanilla. I am from picking wild strawberries as a kid in our backyard in the country. I am from knitting for everyone but myself. I am from trying new crafts and hiding their imperfections. I am from the working class where putting in extra hours is the norm. I am from scented pine cones and warm fires. I am from learning to survive in dysfunction. I am from camping and creating. I am from orchards and bodies of water. I am from old books with worn pages. I am from words on pages to electronic words.
Beautiful mantle. The only change I would make would be to remove the red bows. Simplify!!! I might have to do this with my mantle...it has been empty since Christmas and needs attention! hugs, Sue K
