Organizing My Springhouse Studio!
At Long Last
“Titchy little snapperwhippers like you should not be higgling around with an old sage and onions who is hundreds of years more than you.”
–from The BFG, by Roald Dahl
And then, it was clean. Thanks to Ashley for the organization suggestion for this week’s newsletter, which finally made it happen – except for my desk which I’ve left out.
The Springhouse Studio at the Five Acre Wood
My studio is full of natural light that has the space positively glowing in winter. And when the sun is out, Pearl chases it around the room.

Peg and Awl Party in Our Cozy 1818 Home!
The Peg and Awl team and families fit snuggly into our home last Saturday, the evening of 16th anniversary. Broken-footed Walter put together a slideshow sharing what we accomplished in the year – which is always so fun!
As I type this, I think of all of the people – over 50! – who made Peg and Awl what it is now. What an incredible and enduring adventure – a testament to using hands and minds to build one small treasure at a time. Humans need this, I need this. I am grateful for this life!
The kids outnumbered the adults.
Run from 'the Monster' who was Pearl this time. Waiting for the tumbling littles at the bottom of either staircase.
Eden in my arms!
Pearl helped with the slideshow:)
Journaling
As for me, I’ve returned to my favorite ritual – writing in the morning and drawing in the evening – filling pages at both ends of the day.
I am moving through this journal rather quickly and must begin to build the next. Too, the 100 Day Project begins on the 23rd of February. Will you join this year?
This morning’s desk.
Substack
Everywhere, Astonishments!
Pecan and Dijon – this week's favourite snack – atop a gorgeous and new Jockum Nordström book, which I shall share next week!
Yeah, Winter.
