Chaletmomma Happenings / 1-29-25

Hi there friends I hope you’re enjoying your week. This week I thought I’d try something new. Instead of focusing on one subject or event I’m sharing a few things I’m delighting in. I’m not sure how the blog will look going forward but I’m super excited to share this with you! Click images for links. Enjoy!

I’ve been doing a bit of gathering for Valentine’s day…

I’ve been really trying to carve out time to sit and read. I’m loving my latest design book. Alpine Style and Meet Me by the Fountain speaks to this former retail maven with it’s statistics and wistful memories.

I recently found a yummy Sand and Fog candle at TJMaxx…. here’s another.

I looked at the bookstacks last week and decided to shift the colors of the spines a bit. I like how all the oranges are on the left now… although I’m still thinking I need to annex the cream book from middle top. Isn’t it funny how you can live with something for ages and all the sudden one day look and no longer love what you see?!?

I’ve fallen hard for these JCrew Factory Tissue Turtlenecks. I purchased Black and Black Stripe. They have a nice tight neck and I use them as laying pieces under my wool sweaters. Not only am I not itchy - they enable me to hold off drycleaning longer. I purchased size Medium.

I’ve been relishing sunshine - we’ve had such a grey frigid month and it hit a low of -1* F January 22nd and this week it’s actually above 25*F Yeah!
