Fall into Simplicity




Fall Bunny, Fall







I can never seem to get enough of little critters, colors, nature, and the seasons. A little taste satisfies the curiosity, but fuels a search for a deeper sensation; an experience of a lifetime. 
The smallest details in a red railing show years of love and caring by little hands steadying themselves, wrinkled palms resting, and the occasional *hu-whack* from tools and building supplies. 

It's love at last sigh(t).

Craft Tasting



 A little bit of crafting goes a long way~ Needle felting at the bottom, pretty pink wallet above, and a few Chainmailling supplies in the middle ~

Can't Ignore This Sight







A Taste of NH.

A tiny road trip, with some amazing sights. 
These are a few of the shots I got, pulling over my car on main roads into the brush and tactfully running across busy streets, just for the right light to remain unmoved. 

I often wish I could move into the woods.. Run away from civilization and live off of the earth, the way we did in the "olden" times. Farm, scavenge, raise livestock and be grateful for the little things. 
I suppose I wouldn't have my camera though, nor the free time to take these shots, if I were serious ~ 

Can't ignore a sight like this. 


Delicate Fingers




A Little More of Boston Nature.

I honestly can't get enough of this city. Or nature, in general. Even the old, rusted metal railing on the Bridge has cobwebs gorgeously covering them, green tufts between the cracks in the pavement, and history. 

And.. my squirrels. I can't get enough of these Beauties. Their fur is layered with colors and texture, their eyes deep and curious, and their fingertips gentle and delicate. 

I'm in love with the world.

A little bit of Boston Nature.



A little bit of Boston Nature. 

I find that the small details are always lost in the hustle and bustle of normal life, but in the city these beautiful creatures roam freely, ignored and often disliked. 

On my walks and adventures through the city, I always stop and *chatter* with the little furballs, to the point where friends are calling me the Squirrel Whisperer (and I'm almost proud of this)! 

The "breaking point" was when a new mother (squirrel) became so interested in me that she sat next to me, then a little closer, and finally decided to venture up on my knee to chat and sniff me. Passersbys stopped to take pictures, and one exclaimed, "Wow! You're a Squirrel Whisperer!! That's so cool!". I blushed, and suddenly was totally and completely proud of my title.

*Cleffa~Cleffa!* Chuuuu~










~ I'm about 1.5" wide and 2" tall, soft but solid! Hand needle felted with black, plastic eyes~


Shishigami

Shishigami, the ancient spirit of the Forest. During the day, Shishigami resembles a great stag-like qilin with many antlers, bird-like feet, and the face of a baboon. At sunset, Shishigami becomes Daidarabocchi (translated to the Nightwalker in the English version), a huge god in a humanoid form that appears to be made out of stars with a long pointed face and tentacle-like spikes on the back.

A clean blog for a new beginning to take a look into what made me the crafter I am today. A living Portfolio, if you will.
