This is the very final installment of Project Happy and it’s one of those moments where I’m not really sure what to say. Documenting the little moments of happiness sprinkled throughout my days has got me through some very dark times. It has also helped to make already bright days even lovelier. I wouldn’t be…
I’m not a fan of February. It’s been trying hard to win me over with it’s pretty morning skies but the back-to-back storms that have destroyed our garden fence and made everyone want to hibernate instead of leaving the house have not done it any favours in terms of getting in my good books. Jigsaw…
