Satin Sweets
One of my favorite movie lines is when Tom Hank's character in You've Got Mail tells Meg Ryan's character that he would send her a bouquet of freshly sharpened pencils. Love that! Freshly sharpened pencils would certainly get to me, but the way to really win me over is with a bouquet of embroidery floss.

And lately I've been completely won over by satin floss. It takes a bit more effort to work with, but it's sooooo pretty! It shimmers and shines and makes me smile. So if there's a guy out there looking for a way to win my heart, you now know what it takes.

As a side note, I've found that when putting colors together these days, they are brights like this. It's funny how you get into particular color moods, isn't it?
