Nature Notes

Beautiful sparkling webs dot the front lawn this morning. ****************************************** My nasturtiums seem to be doing very well. I just love the shape of their leaves. ****************************************** Still rainy this morning but the weather looks to be warm(ish) and clearish) by the weekend. ******************************************

My heart is breaking! I just watched an electric company worker take down the street light out front - the one that had the sparrow nest in it! When he removed the light fixture, all this stuff came out and at least one bird flew out at him - he jumped a foot, lol - serves him right! The poor little things have no home now! I hope all the babies had left the nest. Now I want to know who ratted out the sparrows? It had to be one of our neighbors ...

So much going on now it's hard to keep up! The world is green again and there are things flying in the air and crawling underfoot. Nature is having a field day this month. ****************************************** Temps in the low 70s this week. A little rain maybe but mostly clear. Great planting weather. ****************************************** Speaking of planting, we've been busy doing just that. A post about all our garden aspirations will be up soon ... ******************************************

And Speaking of Loveliness Fairs ...

The next one will be here!

Since I posted that prayer journal craft last night, I thought this would be a good opportunity to mention that I am hosting the next Loveliness Fair here on Monday, November 13th!!

I am very honored to host the Loveliness of Homemade Gifts on that day - and I hope you will join me!

There is still plenty of time before Christmas to work on your homemade gift projects! Let's use this Fair as inspiration to get our projects started! It always helps to hear what others are doing, so please share your thoughts on any one (or two or three!) of the many aspects of holiday gift giving.

Here are a few ideas to get you started:

Why give homemade gifts?
What are your project ideas this year?
What have you done in years past?
How do you involve your children?
Show us your projects (Even those still in progress!)
Do you have some neat gift wrapping ideas?
What about gifts of time, love and self?
How do you make the time to work on your projects?
Favorite resources - online, books, catalogs, etc.?
How do you get inspired? Where do you get your ideas?

Please send me your submissions for the Loveliness of Homemade Gifts by Sunday, November 12th. (Don't forget to grab the Fair button above!) And as always, you don't need a blog to join in the fun! Everyone is welcome to participate! Non-bloggers, you can send me your thoughts, ideas and/or pictures by e-mail. (My link is below my picture on the upper left corner of this page.)

Creating gifts to give to our friends and loved ones is a wonderful ongoing autumn project. Pour yourself a cup of cocoa or cinnamon tea and give it some thought - and then please share with us here!

I can't wait to hear from you!
