🧶Just getting started on this Cosy Autumnal Fairy room with full tutorials along the way. Working in a roughly 1:12 (fairy approximate) scale #miniature. Each week there will be a design session on Friday, Tutorial build on Saturday, then Finishing touches on Sunday. Come #craft with me!

Miniature Fairy room in process of being constructed. Carboard walls are visiable with some scrapbook paper up against the walls and a stone fireplace against the back wall. A bare plank door with cardboard frame is being held up against the wall with a toothpick and clip at the top. A dark wood step is directly in front of the door. And in the center of the room is a bright yellow, red and brown braided rug.

Little things count! A smile, a kind word, a little helping hand. Opening the window today to catch some of the fresh Autumn air these little pine cones greeted me. Today's #BeautifulThings right under my nose. Wishing you calm amidst the storm.

Being creative may be 1 way to save your sanity in this craziness. I've found doing something creative recharges my batteries so ready to go back out there & stand up for what's right. Very often lately I watch the news & then turn to my husband saying,"I need to go craft something". #Resist

I have been charged in a federal indictment sought by the Department of Justice.

This political prosecution is an attack on all of our First Amendment rights. I’m not backing down, and we’re going to win.

White block over the main portion of a painting of a round faced woman with flowers in her hair and large pearl drop earring and a thin gold chain acroos her forehead set with a green gem, obviously some Renaissance painting. In the block in black letters read, "Why does everyone force introverts to leave their comfort zone, but no one forces extrovert to shut up for a while?"

We're in a full fall leaf rain. But last weekend the tree were just turning & I had to take a picture as we were leaving the #NoKings protest in Berlin. Amazing Linden trees! I never knew they turned from the outside in like this. Just a wonder of nature and today's #BeautifulThings
