spring...a time for 'beginning'

my morning bowl of 'cereal'.....

making lavender sachets with bird images this morning, wish you could smell this!! Wisk me away to France...I do have instrumental french music playing as I work...it's almost like being there....

I have spring fever, but the backyard view from my studio doesn't agree with me.....at least 2 feet of snow still out there...

My dog, Kona, has joined me in the studio. He likes the view and looking for the birds that have just started to return to our yard.

the finished products!

I decided to hang one from the milk bottle on my dining room table. The flower is not real, it is New England after all....but spring IS coming!!!( I keep repeating that to myself)

My next step is to get my Etsy site up and running, but for now, if you're interested in these sachets,

they will be for sale at

The Spaulding Cooperage at 1 South Road, Townsend, MA. (more about this fabulous shop later)

 Hours: Weds-Sat 10-5, Sun 11-4. They are $4 each.

Thanks for joining me on my new 'beginning'!
