The weather till now, which has been positively balmy for an Albertan winter, has turned. Indeed, Sunday, temperatures dropped from about -13 centigrade to -27. With the wind chill factor, it feels like -40 today.
But no matter, have down-filled parka, have good car, will travel.
And travel I did. Before my reading circle yesterday, I made it to
Restoration Hardware after work to look up some vanity sets that were on sale. Lo and behold!

 |
| And, while I was at it... a vanity set for the Master bathroom. |
This is a store that dazzles the eye. Everywhere you look is a vignette positively bulging with luxury items. These unfortunately have a matching luxury price but when there's a sale, they just become expensive instead of unaffordable.
Oh! the Belgian linen sheets, the cashmere throws and slippers, the furniture, the
objets as they call them, enough to make a girl want to load up her Visa. Go on, have a look
here, you know you want to.

| Inspiration: my sister D and I can make these. |
 |
| I can put these on my Xmas wish list. |

 |
| And this, well this can remain a dream. I am happy with that. |
Ah! My visit to Restoration Hardware was an Artist Date. I am overflowing with ideas for projects to make based on what I saw. I must bring my sister D. because dreams are more pleasurable and instensified when shared...
Bonne journée!
