Postcards from Winter
December, oh deepest darkest December. And yet I find it full of winter textures as one day it snows and the next it melts. The robins have flown. The cardinals bip along, reclaiming the real estate. Time to fire up the kettle for another cup of tea.
Garden Greens for Winter
Between working at two leading Chicago area garden centers, I’ve made thousands of winter porch pots, wreaths, and miscellaneous swags, lanterns, hostess gifts, yule logs, and more. And I still love doing winter arrangements with cut greens.

Warm Winter Wishes
Literally.
We’re flirting with 50s and looking at 60s and I’m longing for snow. I adore winter is all it’s snowy, icy glory. Climate change weather just keeps getting weirder.
