I have been kind of obsessed with improving the Polka Dot Cottage shopping experience this week. I’ve also made a few new things, continued my quest to get some storage space back, and had some experiences with nature.

I like a full mosaic. It means that I got out this week. It means that I got out, did things, and had the presence of mind to capture them 💗
