Winnie | A Vessel Fit for a Princess
What do you plant a princess in? The answer is a dark little pottery bowl. Winnie already has plenty going for her with those bright white and green leaves. She is definitely a statement piece all on her own - which is why this simple little pottery bowl is such a good match. I loved how simple this bowl was - dark pottery, low and wide, with the unfinished base underneath. It was subtle, earthy and understated. It was perfect for The Second Season. Pottery is a skill I wi

Flora | From the Family Tree to the Table.
Some plants come with a little more history than others. Meet Flora - Years ago, I was gifted my very first houseplant - a spider plant. That one little plant became two plants.. became three, four, five, and honestly, at this point, probably hundreds... It sparked my obsession with plants, but it also sparked something else - my love of propagation. Every time that original spider plant grew another little baby, I couldn't help myself. I rooted them, planted them, I gave t

Edith | Let Me Spill the Tea...
This little beauty started from a small cutting of a Mezoo plant that has spent the summer growing outside on my balcony.

Meet Millie - Isn't she BEAUTIFUL!? Millie started with a little crock I definitely didn't NEED... I was wandering through thrift shops with a good friend of mine... quality time on a weekend, doing something we both love... coffee in hand, a little walking and conversation and casually browsing the cute thrift stores along West 7th In St Paul. I spotted this pretty old cream/grey-colored crock with golden flowers painted across the front and the word BLOOM tucked into th

Filling the Jar
A Little Behind on Gratitude... Last night, I poured myself a glass of wine and sat down with my Happiness/Gratitude Jar for the first time in months. If you remember from last year, I started this little (well actually large) jar where I write down little things throughout the days, months, the year... that make me smile, that I'm grateful for, or little bits of happiness. At the end of the year, I like to spend New Year's Eve with a glass of wine or champagne and ring in
