I'm so tired of winter...

...that I not only changed my blog theme, I've put away all my snowmen except for the ones in the entry. I don't remember ever taking them down so early. I was excited to put up the picture that Laurie and Chris gave me for Christmas. I think it looks great over my chippy cupboard. They not only took the picture and had it enlarged, but Chris built the frame from old wood from the attic floor.The fern will help me think spring, I hope!

Ferns are so encouraging ... they are delicate yet so strong to keep coming up year after year,.. hang in there Jean, spring will be here soon!

I meant to tell you the other day when I was at the house that I liked the fern picture there. We are glad you like it.

I like your new theme. Probably time to put away the snowmen anyway. I remember seeing the fern earlier, I love it and that frame is great!

You kids are so very talented not only in their woodworking but their photography! My or my - they need to open a business!

I agree that this winter has been brutal , way too long.
Lovely picture , thoughtful gift and means all that much more with the handmade frame.

That is such a neat piece of artwork. I want to know, though, how will the fern leaf stay green? Won't it dry up? It's so pretty the way it is!

Thanks for sharing.
