I love this time of year! Warm drinks, staying inside and cuddling under lots of blankets, and having family around. It's too bad that it goes by so quickly.
I love that coffee shops are introducing seasonal drinks and once again bringing out their holiday cups! How I would love to snuggle into a little cafe and read blogs all afternoon . . .

I LOVE fall! It's a great time to quiet our inner critic, let out our inner child, and play in huge piles of leaves! :) It's also a really lovely time to stop and think about the past year, maybe even life in general, and see where you are at with your goals. Am I the kind of person I want to be? Am I doing the things I love? Am I maintaining meaningful relationships? Refocus the unmet goals, and celebrate the victories!
ReplyDeletecongrats!
ReplyDeleteyour blog has been such a great read. i check in daily on my little work breaks.

congrats on hitting 1000 followers, your blog is gorgeous so it's easy to see why. at the moment i can't get florence and the machine out of my head, a song from the album called howl
ReplyDelete...if you could only see the beast you've made of me, i held it in but now it seems you've set it running free, screaming in the dark, i howl when we're apart, drag my teeth across your chest to taste your beating heart...
my current favorite song is "Lauren Marie" by Girls -- and I'm loving this snippet from it: "I could make myself go crazy crying over times I've chased my broken dreams
ReplyDeletebut what is life without a dream and even i know dreams can still come true"
I adore your blog so much! It's so cute and inspirational. Congratulations on your success!
ReplyDeleteI'm kind of sad that winter is soon approaching, because I love fall so much, and fall was fleeting this year. Too much rain. I love the sunrise gradient of the leaves, and the smell!!! But winter is okay. Hats!
Congrats on 1000+ followers it is well deserved. I know I come to this blog for inspiration and a smile :) My favorite song right now is
ReplyDeleteWhite Rabbits (Percussion Gun).
My favorite thing about Winter is FAMILY I finally get to see my family again after a year and they get to meet my son for the first time!

Hello!
ReplyDeleteI recently started following your blog after meeting you and shopping at your booth at UCSan Diego's vedor fair. I absolutely fell in love with your creations! I love to read your blogs and you've inspired me to write in mine more often. I am also gathering up courage in attempting to make my own accessories.
Thank you c:
encouraging thought: "How great is the love of the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are! Thre reason the world does not knw us is that it did not know him. Dear friends, now we are children of God, and what we will be has not yet been made known. But we know that when he appears, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is."
1 John 3:1-2
Current Favorite song:
Empire State of Mind -JayZ ft. Alicia Keys
(all-time favorite song:
Sunday Morning-Maroon 5)
fav thing about winter:
-Starbucks' red holiday cups!
-rosy cheeks wrapped in warm hats and scarves
-gaining lbs from holiday food
My favorite thing is hot toddies. Until a week or so ago I always thought hot toddies were a specific spiced rum sort of drink, but wikipedia recently told me that it's any hot mixed drink, so my hot chocolate + baily drinks count :)
ReplyDeleteFirstly, I should say "Thank YOU!" for sharing your work, words and inspiration with the rest of the blogging community. You're amazing! Current favorite song: "Wishful Thinking" by The Ditty Bops. Give it a listen if you're aching for a cute, head-bobbing melody and calming croons. :] Have an awesome day, Danni!
ReplyDeleteCongrats!! I continue to look forward to your blog every morning.
ReplyDeleteMy favorites for the winter:
- scarves and gloves
- snowboarding!! (especially when I lived in Utah)
- boots
I do dislike heaters to an extent though...
I'm so happy for you! Your blog deserves every one of its readers.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite thing about this season is time with people. I miss the things from America like smells and chilly hat-wearing weather, but we can pretend its wintry here too, and have cider gatherings with friends.
I love this quote!
ReplyDelete"There is no cosmetic for beauty like happiness."
- Marguerite Blessington
Keep smiling and be even more beautiful!
I would love to win! Everything is so pretty!
Hooray for 1000 followers! That's fantastic! :)

Hee, I am still loving Miley Cyrus's "The Climb"! Love all the daily sunshine you share -- congrats on the awesomeness!
ReplyDeleteCongrats! I'm not surprised your blog has reached over 1000 followers. It's so pretty and always full of great stuff to read!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite things about winter are the chance to visit with family, snuggle with my hubby in blankets on the couch, and drinking homemade hot cocoa in the evenings.
The holiday season is so magical--lights, old friends, MAIL!, pretty candy, packages, bows, creativity, gifts...
ReplyDeletebut of course the real meaning of the season is remembering the things most important in our lives, making meaning out of all the pretty things that come along with it.
I love waking up in the arms of my (first ever!) boyfriend and listening to the pouring rain, knowing we don't have to leave my room for the entire day.:)

AFTERNOON! I am going to tackle a few of your questions!
ReplyDeleteright now I am being consumed by the song Furr (Blitzen Trapper) sigh.... it's perfect for the weather that is gracing Stillwater oklahoma's streets.
As winter is approaching, and fall is sadly leaving, I am starting to adore my knitted slippers. From the second I walk inside they're on my feet! When I was little, my parents said I scooted around in my footie pj's and that you could hear me coming from a mile away!
and.... I have a few really big things that have just happened i my life! 1. i got engaged to the coolest guy ever and 2. i got a job in paris! so I am in a very happy place and feel like i could conquer the world!
Goodbye!!!
I am so excited about the holidays that are arriving and getting together with friends and family to celebrate!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite thing about winter is coming inside from playing in the snow and warming up with a cup of cocoa, a good book and some knitting! Thank you for your blog :)
ReplyDeleteWhoo - Hoo!!!! Nice, Congratulations! I started following when you were doing the package swap, which I enjoyed. And been following ever since.
ReplyDeleteSo, here is my favorite quote:

ReplyDeleteSomething I'm looking forward to as we enter the holiday season, is the hot hot weather - I'm one of your Australian readers, and while I read about everybody starting to get cozy in their scarfs over there, our weather is just starting to show signs of Summer and I cannot wait! The holiday season for me is all about Summer bbq's, fresh seafood and fruit, and lazy evenings drinking into the long twilight hours :) Cannot wait!

So this is one of my favorite quotes "Be the change you want to see in the world."-Mahatma Gandhi- My favorite current song is "Are We Different?" by Priscilla Ahn. What I love about the winter coming are the decoration and lights, spending time with family and friends, the music, and just cuddling with a hot cup of cocoa by the fire. FYI I love your stuff (UCSD VENDOR FAIR) and blog, it's super cute! >_<
ReplyDeletecongratulations on your monumental achievement! right now, my go to song is Christmas don't be Late, by the Chipmunks. I decided that if Starbucks can put out their holiday cups and drinks on November 1, then I can start listening to Christmas music. and Christmas don't be Late is my absolute favorite mainstream Christmas song. it just makes me smile :o)

"you came with the season as the first swallow sang
ReplyDeletea brown headed stranger with a five letter name
we planted our kisses where the wild berries grow
my feet sprouted wings and i flew all the way home
the fields where we wandered were golden
now only muddy my boots
now i know i should recover, you're a bird of the summer
i was wrong to try and capture you"
:)
i just recently discovered your blog btw, and i LOVE it!
ReplyDeleteyour blog makes me smile everytime again and gives me subursts of inspiration!
ReplyDeletei think one of my favourite songs is 'don't fight it' by 'the panics'. it's all about just letting go and letting things happen without making too much of a fuss :)
Congratulations!! You & your blog deserve the attention. :)
ReplyDeleteMy favorite thing about Winter is the smell of all the candles and wallflower plugs from Bath & Body Works and the snow but unfortunately it doesn't snow here in Phoenix.

Hello friend:)
ReplyDeleteSweet November days are coloured raindrops, feeling the taste of tea curled up in my bed with a book, finishing assigments in the hope that i'm young and i have to live every moment, waiting for Christmas and ski camp, yet enjoining every single second of everyday of my life.
I am young.
I am 16.
And i love my life.
Congratulations! :) That's a huge milestone! I've been following you for a couple months now and just absolutely love your posts. I invariably feel inspired by them - especially the photos you choose to post!
ReplyDeleteI am currently addicted to the soundtrack of Glee. Their covers are just amazing :)
I love everything about winter, but I really love leaf-less tress. I live in the tropics, so the palms are green year 'round, but when I get the chance to go north, the trees are definitely one of my favorite parts.
ReplyDeleteTo me, two large, leaf-less trees next to each other look like a pair of lungs, or in the shape of an anatomical heart.
And I find it so romantic.
I love your blog! Congrats! It's a really nice giveaway, and a beautiful idea for Christmas too :)
ReplyDeleteYour blog is the epitome of how I want my blog to be :)
ReplyDeleteInspiring thought [from me]: My favorite has always been "This, too, shall pass." I think of this for every good and bad thing that happens to me. So that I won't be boastful nor sink too low in depression :)
Thank you for coming to UCSD! Although they're not always necessary in San Diego, I love winter coats and have the greatest appreciation of buttons.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on 1000!
ReplyDelete"Hey, let's cross the sea
and get some culture
Red wine with every meal
and absinthe after dinner
We'd look good side by side
walking back to the hotel"
Your blog is amazing! I spent a lot of time the other day just looking through all your flickr photos and there is sooo much inspiration to take in! I love it.
ReplyDeleteRight now, these lyrics from Brit Nicole's song "Have Your Way" are really speaking to me:
"Feels like I've been here forever
Why can't You just intervene
Do you see the tears keep falling
And I'm falling apart at the seams
But You never said the road would be easy
And you never promised that this life wasn't hard
But You promised You'd take care of me
So I'll stop searching for the answers
I'll stop praying for an escape
And I'll trust You God with where I am
And believe that You will have Your way
Just have Your Way"
Congratulations! WOnderful job :)
ReplyDeletecongratulations. your blog is wonderful and truly inspiring. thanks for working so diligently.
ReplyDeletecurrent favorite color scheme: white on white... any shades layered together. it reminds of winter and is just oh so beautiful and clean.
my new favorite song is just about every song on Miranda Lambert's new cd. also, I love your little 'note' books! I think I'm going to make something like it for my bestie for Christmas.
ReplyDeletethe best part of the holidays for me is all of my family coming together. this year however, i'll be missing my most significant one, my husband, who's serving overseas. so next year will be the biggest holiday celebration yet!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat i'm looking forward to this holiday season is spending it with my baby girl, Claire...it's her first Christmas! It's going to be amazing seeing her enjoying this lovely time of year.
ReplyDelete"I will show you love like you’ve never loved before
I will go the distance and back for more if you just say the word..."

And a big congrats to you!
I love "use somebody" by kings of leon right now. sooo good!

ReplyDeletemy favorite thing about winter is knowing I will get to visit family soon!

ReplyDeletewoot, woot on 1000!
ReplyDeletehere is a little Charlottes Web ditty that i love:
"how very special are we,
just for a moment to be,
part of life’s
eternal rhyme"
I just found your blog and fell in love with it last week. What do I like about the holidays - the rich winter colors, the quality of sound on a clear winter night, the smell of cold on my beloved's face.
ReplyDeleteCongratulation, Danni!
ReplyDeleteI wish I had some lovely quote to share with you... but I can't think of anything right now... this month I'm participating in NaNoWriMo, and trying to write a 50,000 novel in 30 days!
Congrats on 1000!
ReplyDeleteDanni,
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!
I am really enjoying this season. It's so relaxing. I'm presently thinking a lot about how to simplify my life, including with regard to how we celebrate the upcoming holidays.
In other news... While you are celebrating 1,000 followers (and then some!), I am about to post about reaching just over 100 :O)
Blessings,
Susan
Psalm 71:19-21 is beautiful to me right now...
ReplyDelete"Your righteousness, O God,
reaches the high heavens.
You who have done great things,
O God, who is like you?
You who have made me see many troubles and calamities
will revive me again;
from the depths of the earth
you will bring me up again.
You will increase my greatness
and comfort me again."
Congratulations!

Big congrats to you! Something that was shared with me yesterday as a reminder was Joshua 1:9 ("Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.") As somethings are going on in my life and those I love, I am reminded that things are so much bigger than I am - and I need the reminder to not take it on all on my own!
ReplyDelete“Today was good. Today was fun. Tomorrow is another one.” -seuss!
ReplyDeleteThere are an uncountable amount of lovely things on this blog, it makes me smile to look at!

I love you blog! It is so fun and encouraging.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite song right now definately has to be, "Hallelujah" by Jeff Buckley. :D
what i love most about the holiday season is how it fills me up with love. i enjoy being able to spend a lot more quality time with my family because it does not happen much.
ReplyDeleteI keep meaning to buy a print from Studio Mella http://www.etsy.com/shop/dazeychic there are some lovely encouraging and uplifting thoughts featured in her work that would cheer me up when i feel abit down.
ReplyDeleteThe best thing about winter has to be snuggling up in lots of layers and reading a good book under a cozy blanket!
Danni, Thank you for being such an inspiration! I look forward to reading your blog every day and am so thankful I stumbled upon it. I would like to share with you a Bible verse that has been encouraging to me in hopes that it may encourage others as well. Psalms 33:20-22 "We wait in hope for the LORD: he is our help and our shield. In him our hearts rejoice, for we trust in his holy name. May your unfailing love rest upon us, O LORD, even as we put our hope in you."
ReplyDeletehave you heard of jaymay? "One Day Loneliness Will Creep"- gorgeous. is it cheating to also mention that winter is my favourite season and that my favourite bits include snowball fights, winter woolies, hot chocolate and open fires?
ReplyDeletecongratulations on the number of followers, love your blog in all its fabulousness :) xx

Winter is a magical time. The best part is catching my boyfriend off guard and hitting him (love tap) with a snowball. The ensuing snow fight that follows is worth watching my back all winter long for snowballs :)
ReplyDeletei definitely have
ReplyDelete"you picked me" by a fine frenzy
on loop write now.
it's so romantic i could cry.
today my boyfriend and i are going to look at new apartments and i can't wait to move out of our old one and into an amazing space where i have my own office and space to sew! it feels so good to finally be 'getting' the things we have planned for for so long.
ReplyDeletehave a wonderful weekend!
danni, congrats on your 1000 followers!!!
ReplyDeleteI love your blog, I'm a recent follower but still :)
I keep singing the BEP song, "I gotta a feeling" it just keeps me going.
What I love most about winter is gathering with all my loved ones, this year we wont be home to celebrate with them and I've been feeling homesick and blue about it. But that's just the way life is!!
Congrats again on your 1000 followers!!!!
Words that encourage me?
ReplyDelete“...love life, engage in it, give it all you've got. love it with a passion, because life truly does give back, many times over, what you put into it” ~Maya Angelo~

"when you wish, the world become brighter. so wish. it's what makes the holidays the holidays"
<3

My favorite song is "Love and Some Verses" by Iron & Wine. I walked down the aisle to this song three blissful months ago! :)

my favourite thing about the holiday season is making the Christmas pudding - as we are coming into summer in Australia, this involves spending a day boiling a pudding on the stove, in what is some very warm weather! Well worth the extra heat in the house though!
ReplyDeleteI'm so looking forward to clear, crisp days- great for long walks.
ReplyDeleteyour blog is such an inspiration to me! the other day I was at First Friday in down town Phoenix and was talking to a vendor about her jewelry and blogs and I brought up Oh Hello Friend and she said "Oh I know Oh Hello Friend I discovered her blog a couple weeks ago!" haha :D It was too cool!
ReplyDeleteOh and favorite song right now The Saltwater Room by Owl City!
