My daughter just watched this last night! I love that tiger 🥰

A woman’s hand holds the book Nature Explained by Helen Brown and Claire Scully.

I’m diving into this gorgeous #sciart children’s book - that’s definitely not just for kids. The artwork is exquisite and the text is the right balance of thorough and accessible. A great inspiration for #naturejournaling! #skybrarians #booksky @clairescully.bsky.social

Thanks - it was a gift! But I’ve seen similar at craft fairs.

A woman (me!) stands in front of a group of nature journalers. She wears a blue tshirt, sunglasses, and a sunhat.

On a picnic table, several sketchbooks are placed. They show pencil sketches and writing.

Nature journalers reach for Quick Guide to Nature Journaling zines. Various sketches and notes can be seen in the background.

Yesterday I combined work and pleasure, leading a nature journaling session for my library, featuring zines from @wildwonder.bsky.social. Such an engaged group, and everyone walked away feeling relaxed and inspired! 🍃✏️🌱 #naturejournaling #publiclibraries #skybrarians

My daughter and I just planted some amaranth. Hoping it grows half as well as yours!

Ooh can’t wait to see this one! If only I had all the time to stitch 😅

SO ADORBS! I want to stitch in ALL the colors! 🌈🪽

This is beautiful. I love those green gradients!

I’m loving these colors!

Thank you!!

It’s me, I’m the mom 😂 can’t wait to see this!

This summer, I am leading five nature journaling programs at my library - I’ll be handing these out to attendees! So much good information in a teeny tiny package.

Hello! I’m unable to DM you but would love to be included. I’m trying to get into the habit of sharing my nature art/journaling but also am having imposter syndrome 🙈😅

I joined the Montara Nature Journaling Club yesterday and had a wonderful time! Overcast days are beautiful too 😶‍🌫️ #sciart #naturejournaling

These colors are gorgeous!

I love the Keith Haring one! 🏳️‍🌈

For sure! Good luck with your kit ☺️

Two needles and a needle threader are held to a cross stitch in progress by a magnetic needle minder.

I like the flat ones! I wish they were magnetic on their own, but I add a cute paper clip so I can stick it to my needle minder.

An easy to use needle threader is one of my must haves in a tiny stitch kit!

Oh I want to hang this up at my work desk!!

Tell Congress to #FundLibraries The American Library Association is leading the charge for libraries. Librarians, information professionals, and everyone who loves them must tell their members of Congress to support full federal fun...

Critical reminder - if you value libraries, even if you don't use them yourself, if you see the value to your community - please let Congress know. 📚🍽️💿🆘 www.ala.org/advocacy/fun...

Ooh, yours looks great! I have fallen quite behind on mine. It’s such a fun pattern.

I’m lucky they weren’t playing “grab the string” 😅

I’ve made quite a bit of progress on my #crossstitch, with the help (or not) of my two supurrvisors. Pattern by #nightspiritstudio 🧵🪡🛸

I love the color of ink you’re using!

West coast stitching retreat! 🥳

Your sketches are lovely! I avoid sketching birds unless from a photo because they move so fast. I should practice that more!

Thank you! I really like the rhythm of moss stitch, I think that helps.
