~ Decem-brrrrrr ~

 wow 
it got cold last night!
after 2 days of mild temps we seem to be back into almost-winter...
a sparkly, heavy frost this morning in the big field ~
so pretty to wake up to!

It will be another busy day for us ~
the final preparations will be made for our Open House tomorrow.
Fresh greens need to be cut, and last-minute baking done!

please stop by our little Farm Shop tomorrrow,
December 3rd 
we'll be open from 10:00 - 4:00
and would love to see you!


isn't he a handsome St. Nick?

for those who aren't on Instagram or Facebook,
I recently posted some photos of the new candle the I received from
Gable House Goodes/Misi Axel

Misi offers candles through her shop via Big Cartel:
and also holds a club for candle lovers...

this is her
Williamsburg Wassail candle & fixings ~
and a few photos of our yet-undecorated tree 
... shown here in the Keeping Room of our farmhouse:

the scent of Christmas.....






I'll be decorating a little more after tomorrow, and will share some pics of the farmhouse & shop in their Holiday finery for you to see
~ if you're so inclined ;)

 


I also posted about the wonderful finishing techniques found in the 
Fun With Wool book by Kathy Clark/Briarwood Folk Art



here are a couple of wool-wrapped-finished mats I did
using one of Kathy's techniques ~

fraktur tulip
 what a beautiful, 
neat & tidy edge this technique lends!
and it is easy as pie ~



Well I am heading to the kitchen for another cup of tea and a scone...
many miles to go before I sleep tonight!
 
wishing you all a cozy & creative day!

Blessings from the Farm ~
