firsts….for 2014

It's May!  One of my favorite months.  In addition to all the special dates that mark up the calendar, it is when things really start to bloom in the yard.  Today the lilacs opened up, and I found my first batch of four leaf clovers!  Next week I may see a rose!

May also means the start of Workshop Season, beginning with the second annual event with my friend and teaching partner Lynne Perrella. Last weekend we hosted Crowning Glories and it was an outstanding class, with remarkable women.  We met with lots of familiar faces and made a handful of new friends.  I love the ripple effect that occurs, and the positive energy that grows, as we march forward on a project, picking up new tricks and techniques along the way because we are invested in learning, sharing, and elevating our process of creating.  The enthusiasm was apparent, with each final outcome so personal and unique, as we set up an impromptu photoshoot to celebrate both the artist and their work.  I will share at a later date as we want to keep it a surprise until we've completed the encore class next weekend.  Thank you ladies for a memorable three days.  Looking forward to more Crowning Glories on Friday.

    Big squishy hugs back Kim! I think my yard is a lucky one…the lawn people who come to the door soliciting business always point out that they could help us get rid of my clover patches. WHAT? No chance! xo

    I love May too! It’s always the start of the nice weather around here and it’s also my wedding anniversary with Mr. Pocket 🙂 So glad you had such fun with Crowning Glories. It looked like such an awesome workshop.
    Enjoy your garden and your four-leaf-clover hunting!
