Sunday Sweets With Christmas Cheer
Egads, can you believe Christmas is this Wednesday?!
Don't focus on all that stuff you still have to do and buy and organize, though. Instead, let's just take a mini vacation, right here in this post. So, take a deep breath, clear your mind...

It's the patterns, right? And the kicky bow? Plus the gravity-defying wreath?

I also love the color fades, and how the tree looks so feathery. Ahhh. Just dreamy.
Hope you all enjoyed your mini Christmas Sweet vacation! And listen, I know this time of year can be hard, so you guys be good to yourselves this week, k?
