Thinking spring

and a sweet bunch of wildflowers in this new design.. butterfly wall pocket vase.

 I'm thinking of using some crystal glazes and crawling glazes on them.

And I am all out of baby birds, so started a new flock.

A bird in the hand...

A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush, or so they say! Sounds a bit too practical for me, I'm always wondering, what else? what next? and holding out hope for the future. Happy Monday to you.

This particular bird is on my Etsy site, looking for a home....

Just me and my little owl

Went off for a walk on a gray, misty eve. Oh, and Comet, too. This is his favorite water bowl and it was nice and full.

Brighten up a winter day

In the depth of winter I finally learned that
there was in me an invincible summer.
~Albert Camus

Here is a little something to brighten up a winter day, have a great weekend!

Clean Slate

New Year.  Blank page anxiety, that feeling of panic right under the surface.


All the possibilities, choices, along with the usual pressure to somehow do it right this time.

Finally, to work it all out, find the right formula, make the most amazing work...

I know the routine by now. It always begins with many false starts, wrong turns, dead ends, detours, until finally I remember.


I don't have to change everything, start with what I know. Trust.

You had the power all along, my dear. – Glinda the Good Witch.
Onward and Upwards!
