Welcome to my page!
I currently live on top of a mountain that is open year round with skiing in the winter and full of tourist attractions during the summer. Living here I am fortunate to be surrounded by nature and wildlife. Sometimes I share beautiful pictures and video clips of life up here.
I am generally inspired to recreate things that ignite passion within me. What it is depends on the season as well as what peaking my interest at any given time. During the summer months I am inspired to see how I can successfully grow produce. Everything is an experiment and I try to approach it with no expectations. Everything I learned from the previous years I apply to the next and try to move forward with that knowledge. I like to to share my adventure in learning by documenting my process, failures and successes, and what I took from the process.
During the other months of the year (the colder ones) when I am unable to garden, I spend time researching and creating in other crafts, such as pottery, macramé, and beaded outfits. Honestly I just like to be inspired by whatever I stumble upon and use my creativity to try and make the things I am inspired by online. Join me on this creative journey as I re-create random things I find online.
