Monthly Musings from the Studio - September
Monthly Musings from the Studio - September
September has arrived and I can’t be the only one who still gets the back to school feeling? I love it, it feels like a chance to refresh and re focus into the new season with a sense of excitement. August flew by mainly down to being so very busy which I’m always grateful for but I’m looking forward to a slower September…
So whether you also want to slow down or just creatively celebrate here are some ways to embrace the month ahead…
Creative ways to celebrate the month of September…
Craft your own Autumnal Wreath. Using a natural rattan base and a selection of dried grasses and flowers, create this everlasting dried wreath ideal to hang up on your front door for a natural seasonal touch or to decorate your home and bring some of the outside in!
It’s Blackberry season! A little blackberry forage has to be done in September, perfect for jam or making a crumble on a cosy Sunday.
You may have seen on instagram that my friends and I do a litter picking club. Well I call it a club, but essentially we meet up, head out with the litter pickers, chat & do an hour litter picking where we live. It’s a great way of socialising, getting outside and also helping the planet so why not give it a go this month!
Savour the last of your summer flowers by pressing your flowers and creating your own mini monogrammed prints
It’s also #secondhandseptember & a great way to embrace a more sustainable way of shopping by committing to a month of buying second hand! I deleted all my fast fashion apps in July & have been replacing my sofa scrolling and buying with trips to the charity shops which came up trumps the other day with a second hand Ganni Dress. Lets see what September brings..
And if you’re looking to embrace the arrival of Autumn why not join me for my Nature Journalling through Autumn workshop, its an immersive month long celebration with 4 online workshops, a creative kit and access to the members area where I’ll be sharing more seasonal inspiration! Kits will all be arriving with everyone on the Autumn Equinox. Book your space today!
