it’s very wintery, and i’m aiming to put you in the mood for a woodsy getaway. wouldn’t we all love a cabin in the woods with loads of rustic charm where we could go to get away from all? something small and cozy that was all our own? i might choose an A-frame like this charming one just above as they seem somewhat affordable, and they’re a little bit kitschy and just kind of fun to look at. i even have a pinboard dedicated to the a-frame because there’s something just so charming about a rustic A-frame — like perhaps they were originally built for gnomes. i doubt it, but it’s fun to think about. i’ll take whatever comes my way, however, and if it came with its own lumberjack, even better. i even got him his very own axe and some other lovely cabin accouterment just below. happy camping!
