a journey of self discovery. You just never know what we might see. Is that a fairy ring under that rowan tree? Look! - a hedgewitch, I wonder what she is brewing in her cauldron today. Oh, and look at that poor menopausal soul, she needs our love & understanding. We may take a stop at the creativity school or a wander through the garden. And maybe, we will take the time machine back to the past! But wherever we go, we will always take time to stop for tea.

About Me

My Photo
Name:
Location: Katoomba, NSW, Australia

here I am in a little cottage that evokes the energies of my ancestral lands - a cottage on the moors of Cornwall, or on the cliff tops of Ireland or Scotland. It has a hearth. I am a hedge witch {of sorts}. I wear upcycled clothes, patchouli oil and Redback boots. I am a gypsy; an eccentric and a mystic [I often live with a foot in two worlds]. I serve my guests, tea from an old silver teapot. I love Vervain, yarrow, chamomile & mint. Star watcher and Moon gazer. story cloth weaver. keeper of family dreams and wishes. good friend and creator of life. herbal tea drinker and potion maker.

christmas(shhh) - creativity

do you ever create something and when it is finished you get a rush of pleasure, a burst of satisfaction,
knowing that it is just how you want it to be,
and that inner critic remains silent?

well, - I have been making a few things for Christmas the past few days and this one is for myself. And I must say, I am very pleased with what I have created, very pleased indeed.
Each Christmas I make make a few different styled ornaments - I hang them on a tree in my foyer and when someone visits during December, I give them one of the ornaments as a keepsake gift. I keep one of each ornament for myself and these go on a memory tree.



sorry about the quality of the next photo - I tried a few times to get a clearer photo but couldn't - I think it is all the glitter that throws the camera off!

This is truly delicious...love how she looks so serene holding the heart! I know what you mean about creating something where you stand back and think "you know, I really, really like this"...I am doing an art doll for swap with Dotee I feel just that way about! It's nice to have a silent inner critic isn't it?
XOXO

Robyn its BEAUTIFUL and I love it! What a wonderful idea, to have an ornament tree and give your visitors one. Wish I lived close by, I'd be knocking on your door! How did you achieve that wonderful color? She is so sweet looking.

She is so beautiful. Love her face. Is it made with polymer clay??

And I love your idea of giving the ornaments to people who visit. That's so nice. I might have to "steal" that idea!

Absolutely adorable, Robyn!

And what a lovely idea having a stock of ornaments to give visitors at Christmas. (said as she picks up idea and follows Janet out the door :)
