Ann's Floral Lampshade πŸ’‘

I've been holding on to this lampshade frame for awhile, but never had a good idea for how to use it. My maternal grandmother, Ann, used to make beautiful paper, hand-punched and painted lampshades, and I have several in my house. This piece is a nod to her beautiful work.

Inspired by the "Will it lamp?" Reels by (they're amazing, do yourself a favor and check them out), I realized a lampshade is basically a multi-dimensional wreath ring - Eureka!

The process was a bit tedious, and dried flowers don't necessarily lend themselves to longevity - particularly if you have active children in the house - but I'm pretty pleased with the overall effect. Thanks for the inspiration! ✨

Remember those yogurt containers? The second graders at Twinfield painted them beautifully and today we talked about bulbs, tubers, corms and rhizomes. After our discussion we potted up some Paperwhites in their lovely painted pots! Stay tuned to see where these beauties are headed.... βœ¨πŸ’–

So. Many. Plants.

This year I am experimenting with Amaryllis and Paperwhites as cut flowers. So far the Paperwhites have lasted over a week in a vase of fresh water. The Amaryllis haven't quite opened yet, but I'll keep you posted on my findings. I've read that Amaryllis blooms can last 2+ weeks in the case! πŸ₯°

This bird cookie chandelier didn't turn out quite right...

The seed is held together with a gelatin mix that didn't fully set, a bunch of the bird cookies fell apart, but a few of them held up and I hung them from a grapevine wreath, along with some millet. It's not a particularly beautiful creation, it's certainly not what I had in mind, but it was fun to make and it will feed the birds. Success? I think so. And also a friendly reminder that mistakes will happen, things will crumble, and there's definitely something to be gained from trying new things.πŸͺΆ

Zinnia seeds saved from 2024. I'm excited to see how these grow - I sorted each flower by color, made sure they were fully dry, then separated seeds from petals. These were all open pollinated, so there's potential for interesting colors, I'm expecting a mixed bag with these. It's still too early to start seedlings, but I am starting the process of seed inventory, garden layout - and seed ordering!
I love dreaming about the upcoming season ✨
