My Photo
Name:
Location: Katoomba, NSW, Australia

here I am in a little cottage that evokes the energies of my ancestral lands - a cottage on the moors of Cornwall, or on the cliff tops of Ireland or Scotland. It has a hearth. I am a hedge witch {of sorts}. I wear upcycled clothes, patchouli oil and Redback boots. I am a gypsy; an eccentric and a mystic [I often live with a foot in two worlds]. I serve my guests, tea from an old silver teapot. I love Vervain, yarrow, chamomile & mint. Star watcher and Moon gazer. story cloth weaver. keeper of family dreams and wishes. good friend and creator of life. herbal tea drinker and potion maker.

Plan ahead and dream of all the beautiful things that life has to offer

housekeeping ~ June 15

forgive me if I repeat myself when chatting about my housekeeping rituals but there really is only just so much that I can say about my daily housework.
Today I am giving the lounge room and sitting room their turn in being pampered. I vacuum...the carpets as well as under the lounge cushions * amazing how much stuff gets under them. Then I wipe down all surfaces including window sills with a wet cloth. After that I sometimes polish the timber pieces with the lavender and linseed mix. I just love that smell...reminds me of auntie Muriel.
Hopefully I will get a gorgeous bunch of roses to put into one of my treasured pressed glass vases..I love fresh flowers ~ what is it about them that gives a home a pampered and loved feel?
I really want to get some more cushions made for my lounge ~ I want a scrupmtious, overstuffed, fall on me and be comforted look ~ where you can just imagine your self.. lounging under a quilt, reading a favourite book. None of this 'sit up straight' stuff for me
