Of Natural Things

an etteam collection with guests

Once again i started with Laura's necklace…

I just love her work and this one is bee-licious.

I didnt search for any items - 

i just looked thru my favorites and went with it.

I'm intrigued because i think 

the curation turned out well...

even though the only thread in the theme 

is that all items are natural looking.

Hope you like it as much as i do !

Hello the House !

Hello the House !

an etteam collection with guests

From the first moment I heard Felicity

say this in "Out of Africa"

I've been in love with this happy greeting.

I started with Laura's glistening pink pear

on an aqua button on a black buckle

and went from there.

There's something for everyone in it !

ENJOY

Kind Gifts...

Kind Gifts

an etteam collection 

with special guests

It started out in my brain with

Supertramp's song: "Give a Little Bit"

and then became a Treasury collection 

of items that would make special gifts...

either because they have heart or 

because they would be kind 

in some way or another.

ENJOY

Fuschia Explosion...

Fuschia Explosion

a etteam collection with guests

It has been rainy, damp, wet and colder

Nature all around us was lit 

in a moody broody green:

chartreuse, olive, moss, lime, neon !

Merlin and I went to the usps this afternoon

on the bankside of Cache Creek

was an explosion of hot

magenta, pastel rose, fuschia pink…

RedBud Flowers abound

Inspired by my friend Josie's 

Green Pea Fleece Catnip Toys

and colder weather which meant soup

four days in a row !

I particularly LOVE Elizabeth's

new Slug Angel hug me plush

and of course, Dan's stone critters too.

After the Rain…

An etteam Treasury with guests

Lots of rain lately and 

that's been very good for the land.

Winters here are usually our 'green' season

since that's when we get the bulk of our rain.

But this year we lacked rainfall

so now after a number of rain days 

we are seeing green !

Today grey skies cleared to patches of blue

& there were lots of flowery blotches of pink :)

Musical Rain...

Musical Rain

Its been grey and rainy since last Tuesday 

with a similar forecast thru next Tuesday & beyond.

I can hardly complain after such a dry winter 

& yet i wish i could get some work done

outdoors 'coz i was on a roll…

In the meantime though 

I've noticed how musical rain 

can be on metal roofing.

Dingo Running Free...

Dingo's grave marker arrived this week 

and was placed there on Equinox night.

She looks so happy running around

like the wee fairy canine that she is now.

The narcissus are blooming 

& dancing in the wind

at the foot of the persimmon tree

that was planted in her honor.

What a heart & with wings too !

Mosaic...

Mosaic

A collection curated with intention...

The first item was the Mosaic tray 

and my plan was to choose items 

that had similar colors: candy pinks, 

pastel orange peach tones, greens and 

a little bit of black and white… 

The restriction was that all items 

had to be tagged with RecycleParty, 

one of the teams that Brizel Supplies belongs to. 

I'm not displeased with the overall outcome 

but it took a while to get it 'right'.

A Rebirthing Story...

Once upon a time in March 2014… a girl decided to clean up and clear out her bonfire areas… two were encircled with cinder blocks & full of ash; one still had a mix of ash contoured with low level semi-composted vegetation; and the fourth one was the 'official' burn site. 

The first three were completely cleaned up and everything was moved to the official burn site and terraced with a wind block wall… having more cinder blocks and ash… she terraced sideways and planted some iris bulbs in the blocks. 

And they all lived happily ever after.
