sharing is caring

Isn't that cute?  I made one and then she made one. On the 'big machine'. She gave it to her little brother. What a sweetheart, huh? She was so determined to keep a "secret" from him--he's 23 months--that made me laugh.


Watching her be inspired and create is lovely.

How we made these cute crayons.

Aren't the shapes & colors lovely?

corners of love

 

This is a small bit of space in my home. It is a corner cabinet that I painted a few years ago, shabby chic style. (maybe it's time to change that?) I've been rearranging the corner along with the seasons but LOVE is my primary "look" through out the year.   Those two red 'things' in front of the small framed pictures are needle felted acorns the 'middles' and I made this last Autumn.

Even small corners can be lovely.

spring

 

I saw this tree just starting bloom today, on my way back from class.

It was too lovely to pass up.

oscar night

It was Oscar night.  We planned to attend our usual night church and watch them when we got home. I found some popcorn bags and decided I'd make some fresh popped popcorn to enjoy later. A friend had some decorations that completely fit the occasion. I didn't even think about decorating but it created a much stronger sense of fun. Funny how a few decorations can do that. Normally, I tend to only "decorate" with company in mind. But how special to decorate only for our own family.

We enjoyed a truly lovely evening together.
