Happy November days

“WILD IS THE MUSIC OF AUTUMNAL WINDS, AMONGST THE FADED WOODS” —- WILLIAM WORDSWORTH 

Hello friends.  When words aren’t enough, a picture can do. Don’t you agree?  These are a few scenes from our past week, a post with DIY NOVEMBER THINGS that I hope you might like and a new floral series. 

If you’re a long time willowday friend, then you know that we always have a leaf wreath on a table or outside out front door using this technique | here.

I made the above STAR WREATH after a morning spent with friends in the archipelago where we gathered, foraged  and then warmed ourselves with a beautiful lunch and workshop.  I’m going to try very hard to gather a post about that day and how you could make a similar wreath.

I’ve gathered a few of my favorite, simple, wreath ideas in the NOVEMBER THINGS post which I hope might be helpful. We’re standing with one foot in the gratitude of November and another ready to step into December. Until we make it through our (delayed ex-pat) Thanksgiving celebrations this weekend, I’m going to wait with holiday decorating — but, decorating, we will! What about you?

My family and I wish you all of the wonder of a season.  I’ll return soon with holiday fun!
