My first seed of the season has popped up!! Out of 192 that I’ve planted so far, the first is always the most exciting!!

This is some of what I have to work with on the acreage. Excited to get started. Stressed and a little scared too but it’s going to be amazing!!

Started over 90 pepper plants today and about 50 tomatoes. I had to stop because my hands hurt 😂 I’ll finish before the weekend. It’s going to be a massive planting season!!

When you’re packing to move, but these are the last books you’re going to pack because they’re the most important ones. Not much left on the shelves now!

It’s almost time to pack up the altar. To move to a new home. We already started taking boxes to the new place. So exciting!! I never know what to leave for last when packing. So much to do!!

Who else saves ALL their eggshells, ground up in jars for gardening season?? 😂😂 I’ve been adding a little every year to the soil I use for my tomatoes. As it is slow to decompose, I just keep doing it every year. It makes a difference over time

Gluten free linguine with chicken and truffle pesto. Delicious!! This summer I am absolutely going to learn how to make my own pesto 🥰

It’s been awhile since I picked up a book that I honestly couldn’t put down. This is definitely that book. I was up until almost 3am reading. I was irrevocably captured into the life of this young lady facing impossible situations and fighting the only way she knew how whole learning what love is…

I’ve been struggling with creating new art for awhile. I feel stuck because sales are at an all time low but I’m definitely in part to blame. I am terrible at promoting myself. Maybe one day I’ll be part of a team great at supporting each others strengths and weaknesses. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Little treasures received. I always love getting a pretty package in the mail 🥰

Creating black sage salt today. The full moon is the strongest day to create this. Protection, power, strength and peace. A manifestation tool.

Just finishing this as I write this. I absolutely loved this book filled with secrets unearthed, history and lineage discovered and finding the road you really are meant to go down. Highly recommend

Just wanted to share some of my favourite paintings. My art has really grown in the last 10 years. I went from embarrassing to not bad!! I’ve taken a short break but I’m starting to feel the pull again. It’s almost time to get back to it.

Already dreaming about gardening. This is 2024’s garden. 2025 I am moving to an acreage and we are going to explode with possibilities!! Going to need to film and take notes and hopefully get some sponsors and donations. It’s going to be amazing!!!

Got to play with some Brazilian quartz today. Just a small offering but these are extra clear and full of amazing energy. Always a good day when playing with crystals

Working on my new Magic Key charms. Open new doors and bring about new opportunities with the magic of keys.

Hoping to be able to gather all my seedling starter supplies before anything goes up in price. This is where I invest most of the money when it comes to my gardening. Now I just need to get my hands on it 🥶🥶🥶

My Roommate gifted me this guy from my Amazon wish list but he didn’t look anything like he was supposed to. So I painted him! Included are pics of what he ordered, what I received and how I transformed him.

I updated my altar for Beltane on February 1st. Spring is so important to me as I am very connected to the awakening of nature. Working in the earth and bringing plants to life. Connecting and grounding. It’s a beautiful part of life that I am always eager to get back to.

Started a new book a couple days ago. Enjoying this version of the untold story of Cinderella’s step mother. No idea if there are others, this is my first time reading what I guess could be considered “fan fiction”. So far I find Danielle Teller to be an excellent author. This book is well written💛

Just got some new colours in of recycled silk sari. I use these in the witch’s bells and the magic key charms. Need to get to work creating again! I took a break after Christmas but now I’m starting to feel the pressure to get more made.

Eretherial oracle deck. Was using this deck today. Feeling for an expression of me. Gaia represents a connection with all living things and our planet. I feel this card is telling me to be patient, to be myself and continue connecting with the Earth and with nature and nurturing those connections.

Did a reading for myself last night. Past was a struggle, present has determination and is moving forward with determination and the future has stability.

The mess you have to sort through after you come home with thrifted finds for your small business. Between display items and just fun treasures to resell, it can get overwhelming. But when you finally finish getting everything ready, it just feels amazing!!!

A part of my amazing witchy collage mural in my workspace. Not sure what this will look like when I move this year. Manifesting exactly what I need 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

What’s a witchy gal without a few witchy outfits 😜 always looking for new treasures to add to my witchy wardrobe. Especially thrifted!!

Started my Instagram page today for La Plume Noire. Just hard to not jump on the Meta ban when it’s the only place I have my business currently.

I have almost all the different kinds of gemstone chips. I need for my spell bottles. On the tidy in their matching jars, that always makes me happy.

I received some gorgeous garden quartz in an order I got a couple days ago. Hoping to have my website up in February. Going to be offering crystals, books, spell candles, witch’s bells and even some curated secondhand items with that special bohemian/witchy touch

I put my book down on my bed yesterday and walked away and then when I went to bed, I couldn’t find my book. Took me a hot minute to realize that it was on my bed, but it just blended right into the botanical duvet cover.😂

Working on my new inventory for La Plume Noire. Hoping to launch soon.

A couple books added to my TBR pile. Got a few fun books around Christmas but honestly my TBR pile is massive. I have a home library of over 1400 books so my TBR is really anything I haven’t read, it’s not actually in a pile. Though I will admit I’m out of room on my bookshelves so I have piles 😂

My heart is in those green eyes. 🥰🥰🥰
