I've been thinking...
About things...
Sometimes you feel like you are falling through the sky.
Sometimes you feel like you are hitting the earth.
The past few years have been a weird experience.
It is not my intention to make the world a miserable place, (I think the world is beautiful), so I will not pass these things on to you.
But, I have become 'changed'.
As it is a new year, with all of those associated new beginnings, then this is also the best time to let go of the old, dusty dreams too.
And now is a good time to start creating the ideas which are just fragments of things so far.
My home is crammed with vintage fabrics, old lace, and trimmings, just waiting to become something, waiting for me to transform them into my dreams of what they could be.
I have been saying this for a very long time.
Now I am going to fulfill my promise to them.
I am now going to post all of my paintings and miniature items on my other blog, Oberon's Wood and try to post my other thoughts, ideas and creations on this old blog.
I am not a big fan of social media in general but I do feel happier on a blog, so we will see
how well I manage this.
After the usual post-holiday tidy-up there is that feeling of excitement as you sort through all of your treasures.
I am also sharing this with my daughter.
We are both creating together.
We paint together, now we are sewing together.
This pleases me, so much, my grandmother liked to sew, my mother sewed dresses for my sisters and me in the 'swinging sixties' and now my young daughter is too.
We are making things to adorn our lives and hopefully, the lives of others.
I want to try to make the world pretty.
In uncertain times it is so very easy to focus on ugly things.
It's time to see the beauty all around us.
Beauty is more than skin deep, it is within us all.
I wish you a very beautiful year ahead. :o)
