 A simple tree

A string of lights 

 And a magical meadow

 Create the beauty 
And  love of the Season   

Let 2018

 Be the
Most Magical
Year Ever

Another year of wonder and discovery

is ending 

And

Emerging

 a fresh look 

of 

Wonder and Discovery

There is always something new

Nothing is the same...

How magical it is

Welcome

2017

 

 

A little something...

This year I made gym bags for all the ladies 

I loved the citrasolv  method...

and I used  wonderful graphics from

The Graphics Fairy....

An apron for my mother with pockets
goes into her bag
and yes at 85 is going to the gym
every weekday 

other goodies I made .....
goats milk soap bars and
soy candles in tins and tea cups....

Idea came from the dream factory blog...   

Gloves hat socks ornie soap and candle...

No tree... just the throw away branches

from a tree lot...

the smell is divine... every time

I walk into the house...

  when they have dried...

I clean the branches of all the needles...

 put them into muslin bags...

and drop into trash cans ...

a wonderful smell comes through every time

I change the bag....

it lasts till next Christmas

My Eiffel Tower lights up the room...

the branches release there fragrance...

Simple yet enough....

 Another year of learning ....

making new friends....

laughing with others here and afar ...

we are all the same ...

and yet unique..

our most precious

gift ...

White Hallows....

mini whites

 I love white pumpkins

 

I have been seeing chairs 

 without covers for some time now and I had one that was in need of a make over...

I love the look and size of this beauty......

But in places it had worn through ....

no way to patch....

So off came the cover....

Padding was left and  muslin cloth replaced it ....

I'm thinking linen in the future....

The tiny nails were a wonder for sure...

Would I be sane when I pulled the last one then turn around and put them

back in...`

 ....taking this chair apart and replacing it piece be piece....

helped me to understand  untapped potential...

Like life.... we are ever changing ....

May not care for the course right now but give it an hour...

Surprise... surprise ...surprise ...

“All people dream, but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their mind, wake in the morning to find that it was vanity. But the dreamers of the day are dangerous people, for they dream their dreams with open eyes, and make them come true.” D.H. Lawrence

I found this quote on the beautiful ideas site

As 2015 starts I am starting also 

to Dream again

find my muse

and

ACT

for 4 years I have stayed in a fog

I asked myself if this is to be my life

my answer is 

no

I was put on this earth to give 

 my talents 

creations

thoughts 

to others 

This is the healing that comes

giving of self

there is no greater Joy

A beautiful happy dreaming

2015

to all

2014

As I go forward into 

the New Year

 let courage

compassion

encouragement

 joy in my heart

be my guide

through all coming experiences

 let my inner peace

extend outward........

 my greatest gift to me and all

  May all dreams become realized

in

2014

all hallows eve

Joy...

 Joy is here 

for all to partake and reserve 

the ending and new beginning 

has such a flair ....

time is a mystery 

that excites Joy and gratitude,

 thanksgiving and farewell 

for me sparks another link into all possibilities..

2013 is a magical number... 

I welcome you with open heart...

the stars shine above and rein down magical certainty..

all is well and you are loved

Merry Christmas to all

and a wonder filled

2012

Thanksgiving.....

 I wake up  each day  being greatful....

all I see do and am is part of a  picture....

one that includes air, water, earth, fire and most of all Spirit...

I give thanks for the choices I make...

 and the ever present learning of daily life....

 a kind word .... another feels good....

how rich is times scale...

balancing imagination into the world...

keeping it simple....

 my thanksgiving

the best of the best to you all.....
