A Photo Retrospective: Spring Beginnings

 

Cherishing this photo of our dogwood tree (taken April 2022) as the week after the flowers withered

and then eventually fell from the tree.

 

 

My gift to myself for bereaved Mother's Day (May 1st). 

Butterfly wreath details are available within my Instagram post here:

Our rhododendron's first bloom ever!

Ending this photo retrospective with a quote.

 

I am still browsing through and reading the Atomic Habits by James Clear. This quote resonates so deeply with me as I remember my whys. It has helped me overcome my emotional & physical hurdles so far this year. Sometimes when struggling to do even the smallest of things, just remember your why.

 

A Make & Take Experience | The Heart Craft Studio

   

   My heart is tremendously full with the crystal dreamcatchers that were created at today's workshop event at Rancho Cordova, California's Heart Craft Studio. Danielle's craft studio invites the local community to her selection of scheduled craft classes and collaborates with creative makers to be able to also hold a ton of different crafting workshops. Today's event was definitely my largest turn out and I am happy to say, it was a team effort between Danielle and I to get this in-person event going. Below is what I was able to digitally capture during the two hour workshop. The people I met were warm and friendly, and I am especially glad to have met Christi of Sounds Like A Dream and simultaneously she won the workshop guest raffle of a moon suncatcher from Sun Catch'n Creations.

 

   For twenty five dollars, guests were able to create and design their very own eight inch crystal dreamcatcher, and I basically provide guidance and support while they have a table selection of craft materials from the metal ring, wire-wrapped crystal, corresponding crystal meaning card, fabric, cords, beads and many other craft supplies. Whatever they need to accomplish their wreath masterpiece. It brings joy for me to see people creating what I love to create and continue to make as a tribute to my daughter's life. It brings her spirit alive and I just truly love it.
