I made time to read this if only because of a scattering of men are removing and replacing my roof. With little
Regard to all of the handmade felted garlands i’d placed outdoors and not told to
Remove before this chaos began. I’m sad and angry and this passage gave me a break. All was ready for Christmas and now all is just debris and filth and mess. Oh well. January will come. And fewer leaks too I hope.
Oh my gosh I do relate to this and sympathise! We've recently had builders here for weeks and like you was told I didn't need to move anything, they'll do it they said. They didn't. It ended with a thick layer of cement dust on books, the toaster, every items in every drawer, shelves ornaments....I could go on!
Wishing you a very merry christmas despite the mess! x
Lucia, these are great art/drawing ideas for a holiday I don't celebrate--is there one for the non-believers? Whatever, you are quite wonderful and I'll be signing up for your videos/classes for January...which, if not careful, can seem like a dead month, but I'm not dead, yet !!!
Wonderful! I really appreciate the time you took to inspire us - and inspired is definitely the term. I’ll enjoy trying your ideas over the holiday period. Thank you very much - and Merry Christmas.
Oh this is great …..unfortunately decorations coming down tomorrow! Love the continuous line of everyday objects ….my morning mug! And your mother’s peg friaries are absolutely gorgeous…. Wonderful post…looking forward to workshop….Happy New Year to you and yours! And anyone who reads this post! Tricia x
Really lovely ideas to do over christmas and the winter time! All these look so magical, love the drawings of your mum's fairies! Happy Christmas Lucia!
Thank you Lucia for all the wonderful inspiration as always. Hope you and your family have a very Happy ( and creative) Cristmas.🎄🎄 So looking forward to starting box journaling with you in the new year💖💖
I love all of these ideas! My favorites are the ‘drawing in squares’ and the ‘drawing your decorations’. Such fun and unique ideas and every single artwork in this post is so colorful, fun, pretty and original!! Thanks for sharing and inspiring <3
Thank you so much Lucia, for your generosity of ideas… and the all of the arty, festive goodness that you sprinkle every year! Wishing you and your family the most restorative of Christmases! X

Thanks for the commiseration. This too shall pass right? But thank goodness we have the artistic practice- my sanity
