It was about to get dark, I sat at my desk sensing a really different light coming in through the windows. Have you ever noticed the gloomy shine of light at sunset the night before it snows? Or a thunder storm? It’s light but it’s dark, it’s magical.
Meet the lovely Kate Markowska from MKTdesign. Kate’s mission is to bring the muff back and looking at those lovely unique pieces it sure will be successful.
As you have probably noticed I have changed the design of my site a bit which made me feel so much more “sorted”. I guess most of you have experienced it before, the new dress for your blog. It was coming a long time but I could somehow not really put my finger on what needed doing. And, just like a miracle with the dawn of a new decade it also dawned on me what exactly was wrong.
