Hey! I know it’s been a while, but I have a favour to ask! I’ve put together a little questionnaire to enable me to learn a bit more about what people want and what products people might want to see from me in the future. It will take a couple of minutes but I would be so so thankful as it will be very helpful.
Here is the link ...

Had the most lovely day today with at a natural healing workshop run by the lovely and . Such a beautiful day and had loads of fun and learnt a lot. We made our own essential oil blends. We pummelled some leaves and flowers onto muslin to make beautiful designs and we learnt about crystals and chose a crystal that gave us the feels and we made beautiful necklaces with them. The last photo is my necklace. I chose a piece of Rutilated Kunzite and I love it. I was also gravitating towards a necklace made with a beautiful piece of strawberry Quartz so I also purchased that . It’s so intriguing to learn how nature can be so intuitive and powerful when you open your mind to let it do its thing. I really recommend any future course these ladies run as they are so welcoming @ Farnham

The sky went quite grey and dark as I started filming this so not the best light but I’m so pleased with my new phone mount! No more balancing my phone on boxes to film these! I’ll be able to film more work in progress videos. Anyway, here’s my first letter of my “Alflowerbet” A for Agapanthus!
