tiny tree bark books have made it to my etsy shop.  discovering a tiny new hobby along the way...tiny pressed flora...tweezers and pins for glue application are my new favorite tools for a world so tiny.

chasing these nutboxes down creatively since...october...they are finally finished and photographed.  i love the nutboxes sitting there in my etsy shop.  they are always such an undertaking.  more hours than even i can keep track of go into each little natural container.  and when they are complete and i see them in photos i feel such adoration for the meeting of possibility of all the layers....bronze buttons, silk ribbon, tea staining, vintage fabrics and polished nutshells.

i have been working on this wedding herbarium...saved pressed plant matter from the wedding my daughter and i decorated with flowers. it is part "once upon a time" and part plant record. it will make a beautiful heartfilled gift if i ever can finish it:)
