I made it to sunny in time for the Florida Earthskills Gathering. We arrived the night before the event opened, and we took a / trip down the with friends. The weather was beautiful, and I took an impromptu swim in the river. Thank goodness for waterproof, floating phone cases. So much to see, too.

I'm a few days late with my salutations, but it's meant a lot that I could experience winter for the first time since 2020. The days often seem bleak after the holidays, when the daylight hours are only beginning to return, but I find a lot of beauty in ice formations, and the way they change as they melt. I love how quiet things are in the . I love how blue everything is. I love finding around the city, and exploring everything covered in snow.

We are halfway to Spring now, ¼ of the way to the Summer Solstice. Use this time to rest and recharge your soul.

With the full moon, the tide at Forest River was exceptionally low, and we got to explore along the water. We saw interesting ice formations, and we found an old sifter and a bunch of shells. In all my time living in Salem, I'd never done this before. I love winter.

Completed this about a week ago, and forgot to post. is fully posable and stands on his own. In one hand, he holds a bundle of sticks; the other holds the chain shackling one child, who has long braids, stands on her own, and also has a wired skeleton. The smaller child on his back is removable and has wires in his arms. All of their eyes are glass. This took about a week to make and went to a friend, but I'll be making more for the holidays next year if you want to buy one in the future.

Right now, I'm making a diverse array of witch dolls. Stay tuned!

Here's a sneak peek of my latest project: needle-felted doll with a posable wire skeleton, complete with naughty children. Depending on the level of detail, these dolls can take days to make, but it's been a fun . The children will look better with eyes, hair, and finished bodies. Keep an eye out; I'll post the end result soon. I can make a limited quantity of these for the 2025 holiday season, but they are for sale.

We're open on ! Support a small business and avoid consumerism by taking a nature walk with a Witch! The woods look very different without all the foliage, but there's plenty to see—indeed, some species prefer the cold, so we only see them at the beginning and end of the season.
