DIY Armchair Slipcover. So excited to share with you, the armchair slipcover I finished this weekend. It’s been awhile since I’ve applied my sewing skills.

Almond Icebox Cookies
Almond Icebox Cookies. I have a love-hate relationship with cookies. Yesterday, I made cookies using my mom’s old almond icebox cookie recipe.
