monday mood lifter

walking through a beautiful garden is very inspiring and soothing. bringing the outside in, viewing art influenced by nature, feeling drawn to the romanticism of laurel, olive and bay wreaths and enjoying working with my hands compelled me to create the wreath-like piece i'm currently working on (a couple glimpses below). the layered piece will be in the shop soon. enjoy your week, hope it's a soothing one.
