Fluttery Tulips & Meyer Lemons
February 17, 2023
Flower Friday brings us pale yellow fluttery tulips nestled up to a grouping of vibrant yellow Meyer lemons. The sun shining in over the tableau a reminder that Spring indeed is on the way. Of course as I type this on this chilly rainy early, early February morning I am very much reminded of the season we are currently in. Which I quite love too! Wherever you are in the world, I hope this finds you well and good and happy. X, T
Remembrances
February 16, 2023
Loss is a very layered journey. Having our Bailey gone has been quite an adjustment. Having objects around in our daily life are such sweet reminders of her. From the snapshots I posted yesterday, her collar which sits in a dish on the bedside table. In front of that but not pictured a dish of her little star treats we gave her since she was a puppy. The next image a red bowl in the entry hall that houses her leash. She might not be with us in body but her spirit fills the apartment in such a beautiful way. Having these objects out where we can see them each day brings such comfort and are lovely reminders.
Snapshots
February 15, 2023
I woke up this morning after an incredibly full nights sleep, creatively energized. That following the night before where I slept 4 and a half hours and that was it. Wide awake. Today I am seeing much more clearly, where life’s little details are striking me, taking a few ‘snapshots’ of what is catching my eye around our apartment. Lately I’ve become a bit bored by social media. Not always, but enough that I started thinking what inspires me when I am scrolling through images. The little details are what grabs my attention. How people live endlessly fascinates me. Bedside tables, entry tables, dining tables, coffee tables, bookshelves—they tell a story all on their own. Heavily ‘curated’ (the overuse of that word can drive me crazy) rooms can be so contrived and ultimately really boring to me. I love seeing how people really live. Not the ‘perfect’ made up version. Hence, snapshots. Sometimes blurry, or under lit, or messy. They tend to get right to the heart of the matter. Real stuff that tells a story. In our case, they pretty much are going to have lots of stuff in them…
My goal is to take more snapshots. They are a lovely reminder of a moment in time. To be shared, or not. But ultimately they are a great reminder to you and your family of the life you live all along the way.
