BE STILL MY HEART

My close friends will tell you I do not like 

hearts. Oh, at one time back in the 80's,

 I couldn't get enough of them. 

I had them in metal, wire, in wreaths and wood,

all thanks to Mary Emmerling.

Then suddenly a self imposed boycott, 

all hearts banished.

Arm chair psychology could steer you toward a reason. 

I <3  Hearts was my anthem.

Lately, for some unknown reason I 

can't seem to stop making them.

These are scrumptious, heavy and nubbby, 

antique french linen,

stuffed with very fragrant organic lavender,

weighted with lentils ( think bean bag feel)

 and topped with felted roses.

You just want to cradle them in your hands,

they feel comforting somehow.

I've tucked a couple into my pj drawer,

and one in the top drawer of my night stand.

Left open just a smidgen and the lavender

is right there aiding sleep.

Valentines Day beckons for remembrances,

maybe that is what has come over me.

I am selling these in 

matched groups of three - 17.00

5" x 4 "

Email if you are interested.
(All sold out but more coming, please email.)

I'll be in the studio making heart garlands.

Finishing up a couple strands this evening.

Looks like the boycott is over.
