The Phoenix Period

Helllllooooo! Is anyone there? Hmmm...the crickets have been

chirping for some time now, haven't they? To be expected, I did

leave without so much as a word - and a word is all I have in this

world of online communication. But here I am, after so many

months. And I of course come to you with a very innovative

outfit. White dress, black accessories.Who would have thought? 

It wasn't that I needed a break from blogging or anything,

not that I overly enjoy taking pictures in below zero temperatures,

but I went through what I dub a phoenix period. I'm in my twenties

after all and that's what this stage of life entails. It's not so much that

I see the world in a new light, but more what I can offer and do. Some

of my goals and desires in life have changed - for the better I believe.

 I applied to be a vendor at my local farmers' market and got accepted.

My debut was yesterday and it went amazingly well! I make woven wall

hangings, dream catchers, and mini woven necklaces (like the one I'm

wearing). It's been a lot of fun and I've lately been experimenting with

natural dyes, using birch bark, coffee, raspberry, and crap apple bark, to

colour my wool and cotton. Yeah, extremely fun stuff. 

Anyways, it's good to be back.
