Summer is just around the corner…

Spring has brought life into the garden…it makes gathering bundles of flowers a joyous thing to do… watching the life forms in the backyard…cutting and picking the perfect blossoms…making bouquet of colors that enliven the home…

In our dining room, sit the two Mexican carved animals (got them from a local Mercado for our baby) and beautiful cookbook of Mexico…next to my collection of drift woods, seed pods and dried leaves…

Savoring these quiet moments of life…is truly precious.

Happy Spring!

For our sixth wedding anniversary, Ethan got me this very cool vintage doctor’s travel case from etsy for my seed collection. It  is so neat! The leather case opens up into two sides with 20 slots for glass vials. Three original vials are missing and hopefully, I will come across them in my future thrifting ventures.

Earlier on, I photographed my seed collection this year and have been keeping them in tiny glass bottles. This case comes in so handy. It transforms my seed collection into a beautiful mini portable seed library. Today, I finally have some time to type out little title strips and inserted them in each vial as label to identify the seeds.

Thank you mimo! This is so lovely.
