Rabbit Hill – Handmades & Happy Things by Jenn Tavoletti

August

Sunflowers are blooming, and the sun is shining. As I sit here writing, out my window I can see goldfinches, titmouse, and cardinals flying around enjoying their seeds in the heat of the summer. All the while two tiny hummingbirds are each taking their turn at the feeder while the other rest in my serviceberry tree. My little sidekick Iris is sitting beside me and all is good. I find comfort in these beautiful moments while everything else in the world is turned upside down.

I am working hard to find my grove again. Sketching ideas and sewing little bits. Always looking for inspiration from the Lord to keep going. Sometimes I have to look really hard, but He always shows me the way. I'm so thankful for this, and for all of you that visit me here when I have no offerings. Your kindness and friendships mean so much to me.

Here's to finding simple joys this month!
Be safe, be well, and be happy.

Pretty Spring Things

That is all I am thinking about today. I am not going to listen to the news, just to worry about something that I have no control over. I find comfort in praying and keeping my mind busy. Having faith over fear. We all know that stress and worry are not good for our bodies. […]

Bread making ~ You can do it!

I was looking at pictures while we were sick last week and thinking back to our visit with Dino’s cousins. They live on Maui. It was one of our most favorite vacations ever. We were so lucky to experience Maui life through local eyes. We hiked, surfed, and snorkeled off of rocky beaches. We foraged […]
