    October 23, 2014March 19, 2016 Living a Creative Life

    Becoming more organised has changed my life. I am not kidding. I used to be disorganised and this is still my natural inclination. Although a little bit of chaos makes me feel alive, I dislike the feeling of stuff spiralling out of control, forgetting things, losing things and…

    Hanging my autumn bunting up on the front of my house seems to have brought about a change in the weather. It is most definitely autumn now. Wet, cold and windy means warm socks, boots, coats and hot chocolate, not to mention looking at beautiful autumns, mostly in…

    Back in July I made some bunting to string up on the front of the house to celebrate the start of the summer holidays. I had planned to take to down the next day, then I decided to leave it up for a week, but I liked it…

    An Autumn Felted Picture Part 2

    October 9, 2014March 23, 2016 Living a Creative Life

    Last week I decided it was time to start autumning things up a bit and also time to have another go at wet felting, so I embarked on an autumn felted picture. I used the woolly tufts that were in suitably autumnal colours and this was the result!…

Even as we get older, it's very difficult to shake Even as we get older, it's very difficult to shake off the shiny shoes and new pencil case feeling that September brings. 

In some ways, it feels more like a new year than January does! But I don't think we need to rely on other people telling us whether or not it is a new year. We can start a new year whenever we like!

One way to start afresh is to take a moment, step outside and notice what is there. Signs of autumn are appearing where I live, even though it still feels like summer.

Taking a little bit of time to slow down and really see can help us to be there in the present, instead of endlessly rushing from one thing to the next and before we know it, it's Christmas again.

This is why I created the Wild Blossom Companion. It's designed to encourage you to slow down a bit and notice, and see how you might use those in things you make. There's no need to completely change your life. That's not what it is. It's also not a toilet roll long ticky list. It's a way to honour the quieter, slower rhythms of a creative life.

I have a free edition available on my website if you like the idea of it and you'd like to try it without any commitment. It's called A Gentle Beginning and the link is on my bio.

What does late summer feel like to you? I find i What does late summer feel like to you? 

I find it a weird time of year. In some ways it feels like summer still. The weather is still warm and will hopefully be a while before we're back into winter coats again. But the light has changed, the hedgerows are full of berries, the early mornings are colder and the nights are drawing in.

It feels almost sad, but not really because autumn is lovely! πŸπŸ‚

I've written a post about it on Wild Blossom Life. The link is in my bio if you want to read it πŸ’–

I would not feel better if I had done the things I should have done instead of the things I wanted to do.

🌸 Blackberries that are starting to look ripe, although they might still be a bit zingy for most people's tastes!

🌸 Fields full of wild flowers 

🌸 Lots of sunshine!

🌸 Some of the wheat is nearly ready for harvesting. 

🌸 Shady lanes are blissfully cool

If you like the idea of slowing down a bit and noticing the seasons changing, along with some ideas for gentle, open ended creative things you can do that reflect the seasons, you might be interested in the Wild Blossom Companion. It's a themed, monthly guide for creative people and is available as a subscription or as standalone months. There are links in bio, or DM me if you want to as anything. πŸ’–πŸŒžπŸŒΏ
