In addition to my ufo challenge I'm planning to follow along with Jenny Elefantz in her
Gentle Art of Domesticity year. Jenny says of the author, Jane Brocket: "
It’s her ability to organically bring domestic arts into her home and family life that makes this my number one go-to book for inspiration when the monotony of my own domestic life has caused me to grumble and not be as appreciative as I could be, and as I only need spend 10 minutes reading a complete double page topic, it’s something I don’t have to put off till a free afternoon or an hour alone. I quite often drink my afternoon coffee, smile at her thoughts on ‘quinces’, let my shoulders drop softly as I ponder them, and am gently refreshed whilst transported to a sweeter, quieter place in my heart."
Jenny has a very inspiring blog where she shares her thoughts on a gentler life. She is offering a POM - a project of the month as she is an accomplished designer of items to enhance one's place. And as I move into my seventh decade, this really appeals to me. I hope to simplify and enrich my household in this coming year.
