Tis the season to finish putting the gardens to bed....bring plants in I want to winter over...and start washing windows. And at some point I need to claim back the garage before the snow flies.
My foxtail fern looks amazing...and it's tucked into the dining room for the fall and winter. I really enjoyed it by my front door this summer and I still find it hard to believe this was a spindly split I saved from my original plant in Lexington.
Still new growth coming.
Working on my little tag project has been just enough art for me lately while I'm focused on fall chores and other family matters.
These tags are quick and can be as simple or complicated as I want them to be. And there is something about them growing and flowing on the ring that is quite satisfying. This one was directly inspired by the little heart of light I shared in yesterday's post.
I used a photo of the bare gingko tree from our front yard in Lexington that I had printed onto deili paper. Behind it is a recipe for apple pie which I thought was fitting for the season. The words peek through just a bit....adding a little texture and interest.I used another section of the photo for the back. Black crows seem to be fitting for the season too....they frequent our woods making a big ruckus. And using a bird gives a nod to the last tag helping with the flow. There is a recipe for pumpkin rolls under this one....also fitting for the season. The black and white edging around the orange moon was added to cover a mistake. Oops!
