Star of David and a Bee


 
There are those who might call this tiny white flower a weed.  The darling bee would politely disagree.






Star of David is a small bulb that can be scattered among other bulbs.




This charmer blooms in early Spring alongside violets and spiderwort.  Isn't the white and purple pretty together?



On gloomy days, their white and yellow blossoms brighten any flower bed.


That compact size makes it easy to tuck them along paths and against borders.


Star of David is lovely anywhere!



Mine perform well in sun and dappled shade.


Pollinators love Star of David and so do I!  Did you notice the bee?

    Nice photos of this flower. I’ve not noticed it before — perhaps it doesn’t grow in our area.

Have you ever been enjoying a nice, quiet day of crafting, then BAM your jar of ModPodge falls off the table, splatters across the floor, and onto one of your favorite toss blankets?  Well, that happened to me right in the middle of this project.  Talk about a big, sticky mess!  Not to worry, though.  We have hardwood floors.  First, a dish towel was used to mop up most of the glops.  I had the thought to use rug cleaner on the afghan and also sprayed foam across the glue swirls on my floor.  The toss blanket made a round in my washing machine and came out unscathed.  A quick wet mop restored my hardwood floors.  Now, back to my nice quiet day of crafting.

Friendsmas celebrations are such a wonderful way to spend an evening with girlfriends!  The plan for this year's party, besides snacks, is for each person to bring a $10 gift and we will swap.  It's nice to have a small something for everyone, though, so this is what I'm adding to the mix. Fizzy Soaking Salts!

Participating in craft challenges is just that.  A challenge!  I love how each one helps me think in different ways and pulls me out of any ruts I might be experiencing.  This one is all about sustainability.  For me that means:  Minimize purchases.  Upcycle wherever possible.  This time, I even grew something from seed!
