Pages

Just back from a lovely trip to Southern California with my family.  My journal came along with me, of course, pre-prepared pages just perfect for quiet time doodling and thoughts…

The beautiful faces I’ve chosen to grace my pages bring ideas and favorite thoughts to my mind that have been a bit buried lately in my busy days--

--but they seem to pop up easily when I have pen in hand, ready to write…

What a blessing this journaling has been to me already—can’t wait to see where it leads me in the days to come…

…but wherever it does, I’m going to be enjoying it with each and every page………………………….

See you soon with something new.

Spring Fairy

My girls came running in after their spring day walk—a precious find held gently in my youngest’s hands…

…almost immediately, I knew what it would shortly become.  We all did.

Knowing my love for my sweet frozen charlottes, my middle daughter suggested something like this…

 

…and the “birth” of a spring fairy came to be.

Old lace for the inner lining, a nest of old, wired pearls, rustic twine, lace & crystal rhinestones were all our little fairy needed as she emerged from the beautiful, delicate, perfectly blue robin’s egg…

Spring is a beautiful thing.
