Rosette Flower Tutorial

I wanted to do a quick post on what I'm up to today.  I've been seeing a lot of the rosette flower accessories and I have to say I am in love with them!  So I took today to learn how to make them.  I found that the process is super quick and easy, and the end result is adorable.

I hope you enjoy this little video I made!

Tea for One

Saturday is a blessing in disguise.  My first thoughts of Saturdays were filled with anxiety and doubt.  The only day I have to myself to spend doing what I love was daunting.  I spend the weeks saying to myself “Saturday, I will write!  I will go to a quiet, darling park filled with blooms and rustling trees and I will let myself go.”  Saturday nears closer and the anxiety sets in.  “There is always next Saturday.”  Afraid I will not be up to what I want to achieve I give in and let Saturdays win.  Saturdays have no idea that they are in competition with my self esteem and that they are in the lead.   This Saturday is different.  Spent with an old friend, (years known, not age).  A birthday lunch was a treat for us because of our lack of keeping in touch.  Talks over tea and avocado sandwiches followed by antiquing was definitely my kind of Saturday afternoon, or any afternoon for that matter.  We shared stories of what was happening in our lives that the other was missing

A Journey Towards Minimalism

So, forgive me, I'm attempting to type a blog post via iPhone in one hand and a sleeping baby in the other. Lately, I have been reflecting on my lifestyle and I've come to the conclusion that I've made some wrong choices for my body, my health, my emotional state, and my family.  I've also come to terms with needing to make some major changes on a slow but steady pace. My first goal is downsizing.  To go a little further I'm talking about minimizing, decluttering, living with less excess in my life.  The excess I am speaking of is anything from too many pairs of shoes or scarves to too many magazine subscriptions. My husband and I have donated six large garbage bags of STUFF.  That seems like quite some excess to me.  Sadly, I am no where near finished or at the place I would like to be, but I will get there. If anyone else is interested in downsizing some clutter in their own lives I definitely recommend sproutandblossom YouTube channel and her blog, as well. T

Are We Designed to Want as Humans?

As human beings, are we designed to want?  If so, why?  Why am I and a lot of other people I know in a constant state of WANT?  As a follower of Christ when I read Timothy I am filled with HOPE.  I am hopeful and inspired and I long for what Paul describes as contentment.   1 Timothy 6:6-11 says this,  “ But godliness with contentment is great gain.   For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it.   But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with that.   Those who want to get rich fall into temptation and a trap and into many foolish and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction. For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs.” My heart goes out to the people of Houston, Texas.  This sort of tragedy is something I hope no one would have to go through.  People have lost their clothing, their homes, their FAMILY.  O
