Gathering Beauty....
Along the fence lines, driving or walking, I often find myself wishing I was carrying clippers and a large bag. Dead twigs, pinecones, rose hips, winter beauty is everywhere--especially along fence lines. This week, both with and without clippers, I have been gathering some of the beauty for Christmas centerpieces and, if I have enough, a winter wreath. With several vases of dried and drying hydrangeas around the house and bundles of summer lavendar, I'm looking forward to a week of being creative.

I love your pictures of the tree-cutting day and of the natural beauties you're finding. Hope it's been a good week for you!
I LOVE these last few posts, G. They evoke emotions from me and I don't know where they are coming from, except perhaps down deep, stirrings that lie dormant too much of the year, those....deep, tender feelings which I protect....of love for my family, my God, the beauty of it all.
Lovely lovely lovely.
Merry Christmas!
