On a Roll!
It was a splendiforous day in CT...finally...and we're in for more glorious sunshine this weekend. WOOHOO! I love how there is a palpable shift in the energy level when spring arrives in full force: people are more patient with other drivers on the road, smiling faces are more abundant and simple greetings are friendlier & more genuine. In short, most of the "Eeyores" go into hibernation and the world is abound with "Tiggers". Although I had a "to do" list chock full of indoor chores, I just couldn't keep myself confined by four walls. I did a bit of gardening, cleaning up the garage, had a picnic lunch with a friend and practiced my photography skills. Did the spring & winter clothes get switched around? Nope! Did I sort through clothes the kids have outgrown? Nope! Did I organize the basement, in anticipation of my landlord bringing me dumpsters for a massive purging? Nope...nope...nope! I joined the rest of the springy Tiggers and worked on refining my bounce. Still lacks finesse, so I just may practice again tomorrow :-)
Ohhh....pictures: the flowers are self-explanatory (simple collages of my miniature daffodils & my one, red tulip). The little doors are "fairy" doors that I have scattered around my gardens. I also happened to catch a shadow, from the "GROW" sign I have in my side garden. I thought it went well with my tiny fairy doors when I was doing that collage. Yes? No?

Hi Kimberly,
ReplyDeleteI have an award for you. I have turned over a new leaf and I am passing on awards. It takes some time but I thought if everyone else can do it so can I. Is it too late to accept the one you gave me? I really will pass it on.

Hi Kimberly,
ReplyDeleteMe again...just reading your blog before I have to get dressed for work. It is so peaceful in my house after I take my son to school and my daughter is still asleep ( and so is the puppy). I love your fairy doors.....I think I need some.....where did you get them. I have been thinking of making a fairy house for my garden...I think they need one. I hope you have a wonderful week.

I've had a few inquiries about the fairy doors...I'm so happy they get a thumbs up! Unfortunately, I bought them, several years ago, at a craft store that was going out of business. It WAS called the Rag Shoppe. I'm not certain if the whole chain closed or if it was just one store. Maybe "Michael's" or another chain carries them?
