Gifts from the Earth, Gifts from Afar
Courtesy of a swap dreamed up by Nicole over at Gardenmama, stones from afar have been arriving in my mailbox.
Wrapped in pretty paper & tied with colorful string (sometimes accompanied by a poem) each adorned stone is unique and lovely. Sweet Baby helped me open the little packages which arrived Saturday...
This beautiful stone was sent to me from Massachusetts by Nicole of Gardenmama...
She adorned the other side of the stone, too...
This soft wool-felted stone (accompanied by an Emily Dickinson poem) was sent to me from Louisiana by Rachel of Woolgypsy...
This magical, two-tone, beaded stone was sent to me all the way from Australia by Shannon of Rhythm & Rhyme ...
I'm fascinated & charmed by the little golden-wire swirls on the flip-side of this stone (definitely a "thinking-outside-the-box" stone...)
And finally, this stone came to me from Valaries garden in Tennessee (her blog is A Place Like This...)
Thank you for these gifts from the earth, gifts from afar...

ReplyDeleteThank you so much for the beautiful stones you sent. They were the first to arrive, and I've been carrying the "peace" stone in my pocket ever since. I was late sending mine, but it is on its way to you. Many, many thanks again!
