Holiday berries and cream are the colour palette here in our finished sitting room renovation. The hearth is bright and airy and decorated for each season. The raspberry walls hug us as we play. We chose healthy materials, built in useful storage, and we love this custom design by yours truly. It is satisfying to turn a dusty dysfunctional house into a dream come true. We are loving this useful, festive room. Many more of our Rose Cottage room makeovers are coming up soon. Happy living! Love, ~Amor Milagre
There are many ways to enjoy the little moments of each day. Baking a special treat, such as this apple pie, can be shared piece by piece all week in the evenings. Reading a longer bedtime story, bit by bit each night, is a fun way to connect not only to the reader and the laugher, but to a healthy tradition of togetherness and dependability. Getting back to private fun phone calls that only two friends can hear is bliss, unless there is someone listening in then you have to play a few jokes on the eavesdropper. “Gotcha!” Remember doing things you actually like to do, things just for you. This is life. This is living. These little moments feel natural and good. They’re real. And, then you’ll remember that you are real, too! Unplug, mill around the house, browse a bookshelf, sit in the fresh air, go for a stroll, and draw out something pleasant for you to breathe into.
If you won’t get your lovely eyes offline just yet, you can watch some new SHORTS on my video channel about favourite homeschool books and our April garden blooms and evergreens. These are some unplugged ideas of how to enjoy your days with self-education and nature-loving gardening. The nurseries are opening now. Go out and explore that lovely greenhouse air. Happy Spring! Love, ~Amor Milagre
Welcome to Early Spring at our Rose Cottage. It’s still snowing every day, and we cuddle up with tea to read. Here are a few books from our collection and some from the local library. It’s fun to find out which ones we love and wish to add to our home library. We use these for homeschool, too. My own original Amor Milagre artwork and books are also featured. The piano song is a melody I made up when little to meditate on during transitional times. This month, the flower bulbs are stretching up to the sun and the snow falls in fluffy clouds. Follow along with the books we explore each season. More rainy puddle-splashing reads are coming up soon! Love, ~Amor Milagre
This Sunday morning, we installed a gorgeous airy floral wallpaper from Sandberg. Enjoy the process as we talk about how easy and delightful this scent-free sticky back paper is to put up! Check back for new home renovation diary films and updates about my A Gentle Life Collection of gifts for all ages. Love, ~Amor Milagre
The owl and deer visit by night. By day, we visit a local farm to pet the fluffy bunnies and inhale the maple sap clouds. Then it’s off to an icy lake to whirl in the wind, and home again to pancakes and the history of maples for the weekly essay. We adore the new snowfall for the peace and stillness, for the eternal playground. Stay sweetly around our Rose Cottage, Dear Snow. World, choose peace and stay safe. Love, ~Amor Milagre
