CATCH UP WITH FARIDA: November Update and book launch news
I can’t believe November is coming to an end and the holidays are around the corner. This year has just flown! The weather officially feels like winter, the heavy coats and wooly hats and mitts are back on, being cozy indoors is what i am trying to focus on and not complain about the cold. Definitely spending more time in my studio.
It’s been a busy month working on a bunch of projects and squeezing in some instagram challenges.
