Next Years Meadow

There's not much color left along the creek now.

The beautiful flowers that bloomed there all summer are gone and in their place are the makings of next years meadow. Dry pods and fluff that the wind will scatter about in random fashion.

Soft neutral hues that remind me that winter is just around the corner.

Soon these will be glittered with snow.

Mother  natures frosting.

One last wish.

And finally a pop of color that lasts all year long.

I hope you've gotten out to enjoy the last of the beautiful  Fall weather too.

Recycled Wool Strawberries

I know it's not strawberry season yet, but I've been looking through some old Victoria magazines that I found in my craft room, and was inspired to make some.

They remind me of summer and I thought they might look pretty displayed in a basket or bowl in my kitchen.

I used some recycled garment wool to make them and stuffed them with poly fill.

There are ivory ones and red ones.

I think I like the ivory ones the best.

Keep thinking Spring everyone!

Before you know it, we'll be  picking berries and making jam.

Hope you have a lovely day!
