tacking onto last friday's post since my living room wall remains blank:  while it would be fabulous to amass an art collection or create a mural for that space, a simpler, quicker sort of project with items i may already have is a very appealing option to explore. wishing you a very happy weekend.

relaxing, strengthening, quietly majestic and full of character....trees, trees, trees. each one is unique and can stand on its own, but in groupings they appear more symphonic. enjoy the dangling handmade trees that will appear in the shop this week. each has its own one-of-a-kind color scheme.

one file on my pinterest page is titled 'for that blank wall'.  i have been preoccupied with design options for a newly created blank wall in our living room after moving out some furniture.  mural, painting or photo enlargement? so difficult to choose. wishing you a decidedly happy weekend.

so the holiday rush officially begins with 'black friday'.  since i am simply not brave enough to consider venturing out, i plan to stay home and contemplate flooring options for our someday bathroom remodel. wishing you a happy weekend - be brave!

there isn't much of a hint of thanksgiving here, though i'm swirling in thoughts of planning for the big feast. i'm too eager to feed my green thoughts with what inspires me botanically speaking. one of my green thoughts inspired me to make the olive wreath hanging below and in my shop.

if you celebrate the thanksgiving holiday, fill your feast with whatever inspires you. enjoy.
