Notes from the trail:

I came across this little painted rock tucked among the leaves and stones today.

A simple reminder that in each moment we really do have a choice — how we respond, how we see things, how we move through the day.

Sometimes the smallest messages show up at just the right time.

A few days of rain and the woods begin to change.

Small streams run again, the forest floor softens, and the earth slowly shakes off the long stretch of winter.

The snow is finally gone.
Now we just wait for the warmth to catch up.

🐖🌼 Pressed Flower Pig

I’ve been working quietly on something new, and I’m finally ready to share it with you.

This little pig may look whimsical at first glance, but if you look closely, you’ll see that its entire shape is made from real pressed flowers and greenery. I collected, dried, and pressed blooms like daisies, Queen Anne’s lace, baby’s breath, and wild grasses, then arranged them digitally to bring the silhouette of a pig to life.

This design is part of my new creative venture called Birch Bloom Art & Home 🌿. It’s a collection I’ve been building that combines my love of nature, rustic farmhouse charm, and the delicate beauty of botanicals. Each piece is offered as a digital download — which means you can print it instantly and style it in your home however you’d like.

It feels exciting (and a little scary!) to be putting this new project out into the world, but I wanted you to see what I’ve been pouring my heart into.

If you’d like to take a look at this pig design or browse the beginnings of the collection, you can find them here: https://www.etsy.com/shop/birchbloomartandhome 💛
