The Yard Art and Charms workshop was really great.

 We took a garden walk together and checked out some of the more voluptuous plants currently, the Winter squash and the mullen.

 

We also visited our Mother’s Garden which is moving into it’s second bloom with calendula-echenecia-borage-hostas. I also got some good advise for my under performing plants. I was so happy to share the garden space with plant loving creative folks!

When we went into the studio, creativity rose up and came out in really amazing ways for each participant. 

Herbal Dream Pillow for Kirtrina and Stanley's new married life!

Made with love for these two wonderful people!

Ain't LOVE grand!

 The cloth is indigo dyed, from Abiokuta, Nigeria

The herbal recipe was divined by me and each small pillow is filled with herbs!

 

It was so much fum sewing the pillow by hand, It reminded me of hanging and sewing with my grandmother in her basement sewing room. It was free wheeling sewing this time with stitches going where they needed to go!

It's ALL about LOVE!

Where will you place your Charms in your garden?

NEXT SATURDAY
Gratitude Garden Saturday June 23 10am!
Charms for your garden are very cool visual affirmations.

For me they bring my creative energy into the life of my garden.
They can hang, be staked or lean, depending on the specific site where it will reside.







This design would be great with a vine sphere! Bring your imagination!
