Karena, they all look wonderful. Lucky you.
What a great collection of books, perfect for holidays and winter time.
Best wishes
They all look so interesting. Amazing how powerful a cover can be! I would love a week to sit and look at all the books I have and add some new ones to the stack. But I do love to just walk by and look a the covers and think there will be a day to just sit and look through them...again.
Two are already on my to-buy list and now I can add stylish girlfriends and those BEAUTIFUL flowers! I love holding a real book in my hands, especially while sipping a cuppa in front of the fireplace. One of my favorite ways to slow down. Thank you for sharing and inspiring!!
There are a couple here I would really like to have...thanks for the recommendations, Karena! I will check them out!

Karena,
I have at least 2-3 of these books on my Christmas wish list. This time of year one of my favorite ways to relax is with a cup of tea and a great design book.
Thanks for always introducing me to new artists.
Happy Holidays.
