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

a peek into ms*robyn's real life

yes ladies my *real* life - not the one where I swan around like Martha * lighting tea lights and scrubbing my bathroom within an inch of my life but the one where I create * usually a mess, sometimes works of art * either in the kitchen * the garden * or my sewing room.
Today - I just must get into the sewing room and tidy it - as this is what I saw this morning

I love it!
I can see your "Circle of Creativity"...that is what I call that little round spot on the carpet where my bottom is usually planted with all my "stuff" circled around me like the wagons in those old timey western movies.
Thanks for sharing and for letting me know that I am not the only one who makes a mess and then lets it "breathe" a day or so. Sadly, my office doesn't even have a circle anymore...it has a very narrow path. I use my office for computing, sewing, photographs, ebay business, and general escape. It is the smallest room in this big old house and has the most stuff in it. Go figure....

Hey at least you can see the carpet....lol. I have had days where not even that is visable. I'm envious of your comfy chair though - it looks just right for sitting and stiching.

That's ok...One cannot be productive or creative without a mess..It always cleans up. Maybe I will post a picture of my work area...on second thought...not today. :o)

I love this peek into your real life creative genius! I create big messes when I do anything. If I cross-stitch, there are charts on the floor and table, bags of floss all around...a general mess, but no mess, no creating..so it just goes with the territory.

trust me when I tell you, that you have nothing to worry about, it looks to me like you have it sorted into piles.
