A companion friend designer that I collaborate with on projects is a Ikebana Master! I attended her demo in Haddam last week. This art form was very relaxing to watch and inspires one to look at nature in a different way. If interested in attending a lecture, let me know and I will forward you her contact info!

Ikebana Japanese Art
This is my very first blog ever! How exciting. Today has been an on/off rain to sun to rain day. The leaves are turning yellow and the temps are cool. Oct is a good time to prepare new perennial beds for next spring’s candidates, and now is the time to mulch any recently transplanted perennials to help avoid heaving when the freeze/thaw cycles occur.
