Bealltainn

You ever have one of those days where you realize you used to have what you needed most but don’t because you thought you’d never really have a need for it so you got rid of it? Yeah, that’s me today…

With Bealltainn around the corner and the hunting trip for the store front coming up I figure it’s time to do some prosperity work.  I was given the idea of making Rowan Charms using red thread and branches. Of course I’m not as up on the knowledge of tree’s as I should be. And then I discover that in America we have Mt. Ash as the closest thing. Well dang there used to be one outside of my house in Utah! I thought I still had some clippings from it…but all I can find is a bag of leaves. Perhaps I can work with this…

Well the good news is I still have a couple days of hunting before I need the branches, so maybe …god’s willing… I can still make one in time.

So we are about a week out from meeting with our Realtor to look at some options. One is currently a top contender it has a back yard and greenhouse on the property so we can grow flowers and herbs for tea and cooking. YAY!! I’ll let you know how that works out. Also I would like to take some dwarf citrus trees up to Idaho from down here. To have fresh citrus in Idaho without going to the store?? Yes please!

On another note I have been getting back into jewelry making and have made a few necklace’s this week. Hoping they sell well at the store! Here’s a couple pics:
