Thankful {things I love} Thursday ...

a lovely read

some of my woodland treasures on my table

receiving the most gorgeous, handmade gift ~ completely unexpected ~ from a kindred spirit ♥

I have met the loveliest people through my Etsy shop and when after receiving an order, someone is so pleased that they in return send you one of their handmade creations ... well ... words can not express how touched I was.

a Sparrow rug hooking

packs of tea & goodies

& the sweetest card.

Thank you so very much dear Jama xo

And when a Crow makes an appearance while in the midst of a new painting ... that little touch of magic just calls for him to be added ♥

Colour me happy cards ...

I've created a little bundle of Colour me happy cards for my shop.

Lovely to give, as is,  or coloured to give  for a Birthday, Anniversary. Valentine, Easter, New Baby, Congratulations, Wedding, or my favourite ... "just because" ♥

Perfect to give to a child to colour for gift giving (I love receiving hand made gifts)

Slip one in your planner with a few pencils to colour while waiting for an appointment...

Small and  compact ... for a little mindful moment

6 cards

birds ... bunny ...

butterflies ... wise woman ...

flowers ... soulful whispers ...

Three new prints available in my Etsy shop ♥

Snow * Trees * Warmth and Love of hOMe *Sparrows ... always Sparrows ♥

Cozy in  Sparrow Studio, twinkle lights on,  my paints and paper ,   music playing, glancing up from my Art table periodically to watch the snow flakes dance about outside.  Archer is peacefully curled up on his bed... while I happily create little Winter love notes with paint and paper. Winter Bliss ♥

Hope you are having a wonderful Monday too.

I wonder if the snow loves the trees and fields,

that it kisses them so gently?

And then it covers them up snug, you know,

with a white quilt; and perhaps it says

"Go to sleep, darlings, till Summer comes again"

Through the Looking Glass

Woodland walks & weavings ...

I brought my weavings to the woods today

to hang them from familiar branches

and take a few photos of them against the gorgeous bark of long standing trees

♥

I've  create 4 little weavings and added some of my watercolour birds to the front.

Each weaving is different ... one-of-a-kind from the colours, to the variety of weaving techniques, the fringe and the image.

Sparrow * Blue Jay* Winter Wren* Blue Bird

and will be heading to my Etsy shop later this afternoon ♥

If you are seeking creative ideas,

go out walking.

when he goes for a walk

Sweet Archer ... best walking partner ever ♥
