I’m back in California and the
rain won’t quit. We have little
breaks and the sun tries to come out, but the air and ground are always. We are all thrilled, after 4 years of
draught, the rain is a big celebration. I like to go for long
walks and then scavenge for a winter bouquet. It is easy just to pick up Lichen, branches of Rosehips or fallen
Camellia blossoms. They are often
covered in dirt or mud. At home I
rinse them off and put them in a crystal bowl and an old olive oil bottle. Even if they faded or browned at the edges the effect is
still stunning.

I always feel a little sad in
January it is my least favorite month.
One of my simple tricks for survival is displaying candles and flowers, it makes
the dark days seem romantic and warm.

Here for inspiration I have placed the flowers and branches on top of a mirror and right away it makes our tiny home full of reflection.
Cheers to the rain and you.
