*** please see my last post if you want to join in on the waldorfmama ostheimer knights giveaway! i will be announcing the winner tonight! ***
fortunately, because of all of the hustle and bustle around the holidays...both my seasons round partner, the talented chelsea (of lady i swear by all flowers), and i were running a bit behind on our projects for this winter {light} round and agreed to exchange our gifts just after christmas. imagine my delight when i received her package and found these beautiful things inside!
...a winter forest gnome and his yule log home, a tree branch candle holder and beeswax candle, and a small mushroom kaleidoscope...
thank you so much, chelsea! these will be treasured for many years to come. :)
join me tomorrow for more handmade holiday when i will be showing you what i sent her for the exchange...

the fourth light of advent
is the light of humankind -
the light of hope that we may learn
to love and understand.

this weekend, we created our ostheimer autumn nature table scene - to honor the welcoming of autumn and celebrate this wonderful season in our home. even though this isn't a 'nature' table in the truest sense of the word, it is our autumn tableau and we like to add bits of nature as the season progresses...
and a few more bits of autumn goodness around our home...
'mother nature' joined us for a bit before sending her off to her new home!
some goodies from pia, my seasons round exchange partner
as we continue to welcome autumn!
