An Early Spring wreath made from garden gatherings.
Grass hay, fallen bird nest, unplanted bulbs, feathers, moss,
and some vine tendrils.


I use a vintage filing cabinet to store and organize my
seeds.

I collected some beautiful moss from the woods for upcoming Spring projects in the greenhouse.
Please allow me a tribute.

Molly, more than any other family member, loved moving to the country.
She guarded the property, played frisbee with no boundaries, entertained us, and loved us.
She loved the garden…tomatoes and cucumbers were favorite snacks.
Molly even enjoyed digging her own carrots to snack on!
Molly was one of the reasons I needed a fence around my garden!
She was ready–we thought we were….I was not…
Goodbye, sweet old girl.


I remember thinking those words….many years ago.
And now I do.

Poppy, Lily and Iris can’t wait for Spring.
I wanted a new garden apron for working in the greenhouse.

I needed a couple of extra pockets and a place to keep a pencil for marking plant tags.
So I found a scrap of brown linen and sewed a rectangle of fabric onto the the front of the apron.
Nothing fancy here folks, no measuring–just eyeball it!
Now, I have plenty of pockets!

Those sweet seed packets were designed by my daughter Laura!
