dreaming of a farmhouse table

I took the first two pictures at our local cultural center

others found here

presently we have a round table and very limited space

 I look forward to the rectangular shape

I feel like it will definitely fit better creating more space in the room

while giving more table top space and allowing more chairs

it's like double the goodness

I find it interesting how we can have a bigger table that takes up less space but its true

and of course I am excited about a more rustic look

my hubby is going to make us one...one day

hopefully soon :)

the natural workshop

embracing the divine secrets of nature

on an open fire in our backyard

in a beautiful copper still

my hubby just distilled another batch of local Cypress

and for the first time he distilled a batch of Eucalyptus from our neighbors cracked, falling tree

the air surrounding the area smelled so healing and refreshing

I think that might be my favorite part

visit here and here for a little more

we would like to have a selection of scents and spritzers available online soon

until then if you have a special interest and would like to purchase a handcrafted homemade blend

just send me an email to bayoubohemian@gmail.com
if you are local to our area you can find us at the bayouBAZAAR
next Friday October 7th from 6-9pm

wild spirit >>>

for your wild side

...naturally

wild (adj) : occurring, growing or living in a natural state

gathered, deconstructed and now relocating

the seaside dreams necklace is island bound

on its way to Australia 

thanks to etsy

and one sweet gal who supports my creative journey

time for peace

a sleeping baby = time for peace

last week I had some overwhelming days 

my lil' man was a lil' too much for me to handle

he is almost always up before the sun

he is always into everything and quite a handful actually

but usually juggling his demanding ways with my to-dos just happens rather naturally

but not last week

I honor and cherish quiet time (nap time)

it's time spent in complete silence doing whatever calls my attention

I move about the house stealth like making the least amount of noise possible

from the gentle step in my walk not to creak the old wooden floors too loudly

to the gentle opening and closing of doors

it's a tranquil time

an odd sort of meditation

to practice silence has a positive affect on my spirit

something I am becoming more and more aware of especially lately

I take toddler boy nap time very seriously (big smile)

I hope your day finds you time for peace 

out for a cause

we ladies of bohoMERCANTILE went out for a cause this past Saturday

it had been quite some time since my hubby and I went out to the bars and now I know why...

though the night was a success and I am pleased with the turnout

I am very happy with the response I received from those really interested

 in what I have been busy creating

that is such a great feeling

and it is always a pleasure to visit and laugh with my soul sisters

now its time to get serious :)

and prepare for the October bayouBAZAAR

its less than two weeks away and this one should be a real good time

minus the midnight at the bar drunken obnoxiousness

creating havoc on our displays and even some minor shoplifting 

may your day find you drunk with creativity and laughter

time to create and time to be thankful

thanks for the love
