This may be the first year in a long time that I can send gifts, and this has me very excited.

I’ve been doing a lot of journaling lately and several ideas have struck me, such as fabric covered personalized journals and pens. I cut up my too peacock-y pink hijab and am using it to decoupage a box one of my many deceased headphones came in. 

My various battle wounds have been complaining so I’m using Beetle Balm which I got on Main Street at Kountry Corner Gifts. They have some really nice stock in the “spoil yourself” department, and I’ve been buying essential oils and “spa” type things there, plus a few scarves.
