"A Journey of One's Own" (Available HERE)

HAPPY HAPPY SUMMER!

For this month's “Beauty in Bloom” I put together some lovely things to welcome summer ~ I’ve included favorite summer recipes (can we say peach season), a favorite featured artist, my favorite summer playlist with ALL the beach songs, a blog post I wrote to share how to attract pollinators to your garden, and a favorite summer reading.

I hope you find a little time to soak it all in!

😊

Enjoy!

This magical little book is one you can read over and over. It takes me away from everyday life and transports me to a place where there is solitude and peace, where I can slow down and be fully present.

Gift from the Sea explores the questions of how the author found a new, more natural rhythm of life and how she gained a deeper relationship with herself and others. It also makes a great gift.

I have the great pleasure of being friends with Annie Wildey. She's a kind hearted, beautiful soul, full of sass and British wit. I'm highlighting her gorgeous artwork which is largely inspired by the sea. Her wave paintings will make you want to dive into the ocean!

Not only is she a brilliant artist, she co-owns Air Studio Gallery in Westerly, RI along with Michael Fanelli.

During the months of August & September you can view their 2nd annual “Summer Crush” Exhibition featuring the work of 19 contemporary artists. I'm delighted to say I am one of them!

You can see more of Annie's work HERE and preview “Summer Crush” HERE.

In case you missed it in my last letter, I made a Happy Summer Playlist for you! It captures the essence of summer FUN and I hope it makes your days ☀️ Bright & Sunny!
