“So much time, and so little to do! Strike that, reverse it.”
-Willy Wonka
I’m sitting here sipping tea wondering when (and if) Twitter will unlock my account tonight. Sixty tulip bulbs remain in their bags and the laundry has fluffed in the dryer at least three times. The seedlings are outgrowing their newsplugs and need transplanting and the dishes…well actually the dishes are done thanks to our daughter (she pushed the button on the dishwasher).
It’s Sunday and I needed this day of rest. There’s always something needing attention on the weekend but nothing urgent today, so I blissfully spent the day sitting in the indoor garden looking through art supplies and crafting paper ornaments.(I found directions here.) I folded colored papers into stars I’ll embellish with buttons, dried flowers and bits of ribbon to make ornaments for gifts.
They’re fun to make, pretty and a great way to re-cycle old magazine pages, wrapping paper etc. I’ll pair one with a few rubber-stamped plant markers and saved heirloom seeds from the garden (in home-made seed packets) for my garden friends. Other friends will receive one paired with a tin of herbal tea from the garden. Ahhh, simple and lovely… just like my Sunday!
