Do you remember those plastic alphabet magnets? They adorned just about every fridge in the neighborhood when I grew up but I don’t see them around anymore.

You know these birds right? They’ve been floating around blogland for over a year now and the pattern can be found for free here.

For Swap- Munki Munki, originally uploaded by Indie House.
I guess it was over a month ago now that a rumor started to circulate on the internet that Munki Munki prints could be found (in pajama form) at TJ Maxx and Marshalls. I searched all the stores near me and came up with nothing and despite [...]
