Thank you so much for your kind words Mary Ellen ❤️🌹

Thanks Cheryl. I like that idea 💕

Thanks Amanda 💕🌸🌿🌺🦋

Thanks for your kind words Maria, I’m so pleased with how both of these have turned out and it was lovely using things from nature that I have been collecting over the years. I’m glad you’ve enjoyed seeing them come together 💕🌺🌸🦋🌿

Thank you Nancy. I hope you will enjoy creature with nature 💕

Thanks so much Louise. I hope you’ll give this method a try 🌸

Nina, one more thing! I discovered ten or so years ago that our euonymus out front produces berries in the fall. I mean the prettiest, orange-pink-with-white berries. They’re on the strong stalk of the low-growing bush, have the euonymus leaves in clusters up the stalk, make really nice vase additions. We are about to get near-freezing overnight temps, which shrivels up the berries, so I must must make haste to cut a few more to enjoy inside. All to say that I cut small sprigs of it yesterday after being inspired by your post. Gosh darn it, I just don’t think there’s a reasonable way to instantly dry them and retain their integrity! If I should wish to use a sprig of berries within a journal, I’d better think again, anyway! Part of the nature of preserving plants etc is keeping them still and out of drafts, away from heat. Ha. Lots of wishful thinking here. I’d have to build a journal with boxes for pages and an acetate window, and all I’m doing right now is trying to organize my craft space here, not journal-ambitious. But had to share my own momentary obsession!

Thanks so much Lynn. I really did enjoy making these 💕🌿🌸🌺

@@NinaRibenaMixedMedia I raise ducks, and I find beautiful feathers in yard. I always pick them up. They are too pretty to leave on ground. My family laughs, and keeps asking "what are you going to do with bags of duck feathers???" Ha! Not sure, but I will think of SOMETHING! I've been trying to figure out how to mount them for journals. And you showed me how. So thank you. YAY!!!

Thank you so much 💕

Awww, thank you so much ☺️💕🌸🌿🦋🌺

Thanks so much Vonalda 💕

Thank you so much 💕

Thank you 💕🌿🌺🦋

Thank you so much ❤️

Thanks Cass. I like collecting feathers too and have always wondered how I can use some of the larger ones in my journals. I’m so glad this method worked and I can now include them in my art. Happy Creating 💕

Thanks Mel, it’s been a fun month 💕 xxx

Thanks Deborah, glad you like them 💕

Thanks Elizabeth. I’m thrilled to bits with these journals. I don’t know why I’ve waited so long to use the wasp nest. We found it in our log shed and the wasps had long gone. It looked so delicate and beautiful that I couldn’t bear to throw it out. I know what you mean about them being scary though. We have 3 or 4 wasps nests in our Apex’s every year that we have to deal with and it’s an absolute pain! Sam is allergic to them and swells up like a balloon when he’s stung. Glad you enjoyed this 💕🌸🌿🦋 xo

@@NinaRibenaMixedMedia Oh no, hope he is alright this year xo

Thanks Marianne, glad you enjoyed it 💕

Thanks Darlene, isn’t it fascinating 💕

Hello Cheryl good to see you back 💕. I’m so happy to have a place to display these wonderful natural treasures. Stay safe my friend 💕

Nina, we are staying safe. Too darn windy to kayak, however, we took a drive north to see a teeny lighthouse instead.
