i feel like this time of year can be so tough. one day it's warm and spring-like, and you're watching daffodils bloom; the next day it's blustery and cold, and everything is encased in ice. i'm ready for spring to stick around! i can't wait to start planting seeds and watching the trees bud and leaf out. and of course, the flowers!
we're not quite there yet, so in the meantime, i am settling in with a blanket and a steamy mug of hot tea, lighting a candle or two, and working on some stitching. remembering to enjoy these last days of winter hibernation and the gentle, slow pace.
and i'd love to share some cozy, crafty vibes with you. i've got two bundles of goodies to give away, to get you through these last lingering winter days. everything you need to slow down, get cozy, get crafty!
TWO winners will receive:
- an embroidery kit of their choice
- 'get cozy, get crafty' candle from green creek candle co
- lunar blossom iron-on patch
- one pair of blue scallop scissors
- a set of two extra embroidery needles
to enter, comment on this blog post and tell me: what do you have coming up that you're excited about? it can be anything! big or small, what's something that you look forward to?
did you know that anticipation allows us to gain pleasure from something in the near future, before the event even occurs? it's such a valuable emotion! and looking forward to small, delightful things are as enjoyable as one big event.
so, share something that you're anticipating!
xo, liz

This spring I’m looking forward to finishing an embroidery project for a friend and coworker. I have had the privilege of working in her classroom with some wonderful students who have taught me so much and I am so proud to have known them. They’re such wonderful students, and I’ve loved watching them grow and learn. I will soon be leaving this job, and I want to honor their great teacher and class by presenting them with an embroidery design that is personalized for their classroom. I know it will be a bittersweet presentation, because I’ll be sad to leave, but I’ve never worked so diligently on an embroidery project because I want them to understand how much they mean to me.
