The colors of this thread reminds me of spring; with the
random placement of these spools, like flower heads with green grass below. O.K. - it's a stretch, but I do live in north central Wisconsin. The only color I see outside now is white and I might mention, I woke to -16. Let me have this one. (smile)
Is it just me, or does this inspire you as well?
Looking at all that vintage trim...inspires me to create something. I have been painting lately, not felting or sewing. I guess I need some "needle" therapy.
So, as I wait for the real flowers to emerge from the cold, clay soil of my Ringle homestead...I need to remind myself that I can create my own.
Creating your own flowers in any life challenge is a good lesson. At times we might be in a "blizzard" of life - trials of some sort. Please remember that even in the cold and hardness of that time, you can create your own flowers. A positive attitude, humble spirit, repentant nature - with a good amount of tears....will help your flowers to bloom.
Blessings from Ringle, Wisconsin.
