Little Joys

They were right....it really is the little things that can bring us the most joy.

After being away for a couple weeks I came home to a huge pile of mail to deal with, bags to unpack, and clothes to wash.

But I chose to play with my new dried gourds Margie sent home with me.  I'm still tickled with the fact that she embraced these little shriveled wabi-sabi treasures....and even more tickled that she gave me a few.

They gave me incentive to wash my kitchen windows....and redo my window sill. They go well with this sweet little rustic candle I found at a quilt show this fall. It operates on a battery and it turns on and off automatically.
