Black and white and red and butterflies : ) After the wild and crazy day of Mardi Gras yesterday this seemed “subtle” in comparison : ) Cozy and red I can’t even remember when and where I found this cloth but clearly the red is what drew me to Continue reading Day 247 – Red and black and butterflies
