Collecting Thoughts

What am I witnessing in the Wild

• To be awake is to be alive ...
• live with your eyes wide open
• Live deep and suck out all the marrow of life

Walden Pond - Thoreau collected his thoughts

Experience life with my kids, thoughtful to my husband and kids, really live!

Art of seeing became Thoreau's life

I see beautiful designs all the time ...
The rushing of a stream

The simplest things 

 the thought provoking beauty in the world

The thoughts of a young girl looking into the world 

The beauty of vintage fabric

The season is full of wonder and beauty, may you find the beauty Around you

Christmas at The Garage

Getting ready for the Christmas season has been a challenge this year. I had a scary health challenge this week. My hospital stent showed a healthy heart and now need to work on a healthy lifestyle. 

So very thankful am I. 

Thankful for a great group of artful friend, new and old

Family that is always supportive. My pops was a watch/clock maker. This is a clockmaker desk. 

Oh how I would like this in my work area. 

Thankfully I have been busy with my embroidery. I have Christmas tags ready to go. I found a tree at the thrift store and dressed it up for Bloom Studio. It is simple but sweet. The sled has a certain Paris tag line!

My garden stand is dressed for the holidays. My sister made the wreath. I am hoping for one for my present (wink, wink).

 I love one of my Bloom roomies gate(may have to have this)

 My sewing box redo with Santa as the star, I painted the box with Miss Mustard Seeds paint. I love the chipping

 my next tree is in a copper vat. Cool things gathered for sale

 i made three jars but had to keep one

I’ve got more to go to the shop during the week for our Candlelight Stroll next Saturday. If you are near Fletcher, NC please stop by

Love. Di
