pieces of this week

monday blue

Monday started slow

 

Voting from the comfort of my couch...

I voted from my couch (this is your gentle reminder to vote)

 

ready to begin. #poemitout

Mary Oliver guided me back to myself again

 

studio altar.

I lit a candle and sent lots of love across the miles as I listened to the news

 

so we made a boat today 

I helped a two year old build a boat and felt like I really had it together as a mama for a little while

 

A few new beauties to play with today

I worked on a new collection of jewelry inspired by the magic where the forest meets the sea along the Washington and Oregon coasts

 

Settling into the studio for a while...

This little girl made my heart grow bigger as I witnessed her joy in the simple moments

 

leaning into all of it tonight. letting trust just be here beside me.

I found my way to rest

 

out of the house today and it's not raining!

And I made space for in-person connection and had lunch with a new friend.

As the rain falls and we settle in for a Friday evening, I hope this weekend will be full of time to recharge and have fun and unplug and laugh and read poetry and maybe even go on a date. 

May your weekend be full of lightness and ease...

What beautiful, soulful images of your week. I love how small children find pleasure in a cardboard boat, mine were just the same.

hi liz! loved this post. ej is so adorable. can't wait to check out the new "goods" in your shop. it feels good to be reconnected after Sandy. it's snowing here in NJ and it feels calming although people in south jersey have been evacuated & so many are still w/o power. i hope you enjoyed the sunshine in your part of the usa today! xo alane
