Springtime...

It's been a while since I had time to take the camera out for a walk... just checking out signs of spring in nature. When doing so you tend to notice things that should be taken care of, so tomorrow spending some time with a rake instead ;o)

Runes meet Iceland...

Yesterday the sun participated in taking photos of goods that will end up at the fairs this summer. Sun rays led me to a room that is not heated wintertime, but have to admit, got so carried away that I didn't even notice it was a little bit chilly... here some runes meeting a landscape from Iceland, also seen in the banner of this page

Card weaving

Hi there! Sorry for so few postings over here lately, real life has been keeping me buzy...
Timeconsuming is also preparations for the coming summer with ancient fairs, handicrafts of wood, yarn, stone, photos, paper etc...
A week ago I had the chance to learn from a master the skill how to use cards for weaving, still practicing, here is a pic of one of my tests ;o)
Wishing you all a great start on the week!

No snow yet

Normally January + Finland = Snowy landscape... still waiting for the snow to light up the dark nights over here. Until that happens a pic to start the magic... ;o)

The runes and 2014

2014... New year with exciting adventures ahead ;o)

Though named Rune of the Day, you can still pick a rune for 2014 and see what kind of message you get:  http://www.nordictales.fi/runa/riimu.html  (sorry for the time being descriptions on the runes only in Finnish)

Would be nice to hear what you got ;o)

I got Fehu, some of the meanings of this rune: new beginnings, wealth, prosperity...

Season's Greetings

Wishing you all a season full of joy, love and light. Nature was giving a treat today, incredible light, some rain showers, but not yet those white beautiful snowflakes falling down... not a white xmas over here, better luck next year. Take care ;o)
