We just received yet another order of various craft supplies, and it gives me great joy to just look at all of the happy pompoms and peeking google eyes!  What IS it about chenille pipe-cleaners and colorful quilling paper strips that makes my heart so glad?  Perhaps I am simply odd.  I do know one thing:  it's days like today that I really enjoy my job!
