While I continue to finish up this year’s Christmas project, I thought I’d do a little retro post.  Here you can see some of my creations from the past few Christmases.  We have my little Ginger Bread House done on brown Aida cloth, glued to foam board and my little Hungarian inspired elf shoes with bells. Looking forward to the holidays, not far away now!!!

The room without being there.

As I walk out of the Observatory, on my way to the cozy fireplace, I turn left to walk beside the Fence of Memory. When I do, it instantly starts to blink - and it looks like it is being turned on like a television - the screen showing the universe zoomed out until it stops at something odd: it looks like a library floating out in space!

I have to stop and study this phenomenon. When I reach out my hand to try touch it, it feels hard and solid, and I realize that I am touching one of the shelves. It spins lightly around like it never reaches the ground, and when I grab the front of the shelf, it is instantly locked to my hand. When I take my hand back again, it immediately releases itself from my “grasp.” 

I now try to take out a book, and a purple one follows. I read the front of it: "Self Worth." I take the book with me as I walk back to the fireplace.

Wait - what fireplace? When I enter the room that I previously warmed myself in, where I ate a cup and drank a heavenly drink - it is no longer there. Instead, I am outside - but I am not cold. The tons of snow that I walk in isn’t raw, and I bend down to touch it: the same as I felt in the beginning - soft and warm and very mysterious!

I look around. It seems like I am in a garden. When I walk past some trees with layers of snow on them - I see a house with warm and inviting windows. I stare at the windows: inside I can see my living room, with the fireplace and everything that I have decorated. I walk around the house to find the door. But there is nothing there. 

The fireplace crackles like it did - and I can't get in there. I start to walk around in the garden to see what it is that I can do.

Halfway desperate I stand there without knowing what to do. Suddenly, I realize it.

I smile when I start to collect the snow that acts like it wants to be molded into some shape. I laugh a little, and then I begin to sing.
