IMBOLC is coming (2nd Feb) ..... will you be marking the occasion?
Our Nature Corner at home has been graced with two new visitors: The Snow Queen and Mrs Thaw -
The Snow Queen covered the world with snow and ice while Mrs Thaw is busy sweeping it all away, making room for the new shoots to pop up.
I have departed from the techniques in The Nature Corner book a little, using my new Needle Felting in place of the flat felt and materials recommended. I am really enjoying these new creations, learning as I go along.
Maybe a story or two, for Imbolc?
Jackie Morris has some delightful stories up her sleeve - visit HER here, and her wonderful cats HERE.
Or how about these other suggestions:
The Russian fairy tale - "The Firebird and Vasilisa" ,
Grimms' Fairy Tale - "12 Dancing Princesses",
or those perenial favourites:
"3 Billy Goats Gruff",
"Little Red Riding Hood",
"Little Bear and the Long Walk" and
"Dick Whittington".
What is your favourite story I wonder......?
Happy Reading and Dreaming!
Love Lizzi
