This month we all share with you our thoughts on Spring...
Rebirth is my theme for Spring, such a cliché, I know, but oh so true! First, the flowers in our garden, whipping my brain with their colours...
Then there is one section of the garden that we left to its own devices, and where we have been rewarded with lovely wild flowers...
Some are even growing out of the rock...
Lilies keep unfurling and aloe veras keep making babies...
Then, they are local treasures like this 'beach' which looks absolutely stunning in Spring, where we had a picnic with my little nephews last week (see previous post):
And the rebirth theme continues on the beach with Sea Glass, found only last week, these discarded pieces of glass have spent years being churned over by the sea, hitting rocks, getting frosted. I'm researching how to identify Sea Glass, and I am fascinated by my finds...
Refused glass, reclaimed and altered by the sea, found and altered again by me... This keyring sold an hour after being listed.
Last but not least, a new lease of life: here's a pendant I am really proud of... my local stone supplier, Feryal, asked for help with a broken slab of turquoise, and I've managed to give the illusion that the stone is complete and looks like a heart, thanks to the woven and sculpted wire. It took a couple of days to 'see' what it should become, but it looks happy enough with its new image...
The back of the pendant however, tells its true story...
New life everywhere, I love Spring!
Thanks for reading.
