You don’t make it easy!! They all are delightful and it’s near impossible to choose just one favorite – but if I only get one choice, I’m voting for the little sailboats – the lace and driftwood ones by Sofia Tryon. Thank you!
I really love the sailboats from Nov/Dec 2014- but the tea cup with mini trees is a close second!
I love all of them, but if I could only pick one-it would be Catrin’s book with the letters coming of the pages!
Happy New Year everyone~
I’ve always liked primitive style Halloween decor, so I’m voting for Goofy Jacks. Adore!
My favorite is Kathryn Paigen’s card. Happy New Year!
My favorite is Catrin Welz-Steins’ girl with the flowers coming out from the back of her head (this is my # 1)and the book with the letters coming out is wonderful too.
I adore the work of Juliette Crane; it just speaks to me and makes my heart smile. For an Instagram shot, I do love the Mexican Hot Chocolate.
Catrin Welz-Stein’s image of the flower girl is my all time favorite! The others are all fantastic choices as well!
The one with the book and the words is my favorite:

They are all fantastic, but that one is stunning!
Those beautiful cups of Mexican Hot Chocolate would hit the spot on these cold wintry days we have been having. What warmth they would provide along with the entire issue of Mingle.
They are all lovely images, but Christmas is “my” season. As I sit here postponing taking down my Christmas tree for one more day, I vote for the mini tree placecards and ornaments displayed in the cup. So adorable.
I like Shirley’s charming and clever recycled boats in the Nov/Dec Somerset issue!
