I’ve started lighting a candle each morning before anything else. Slowly starting the routine I always wanted to create in the morning where I prioritise writing over admin and household duties that really don’t matter that much. I’m lucky that I don’t have children at home so it was always a self imposed / procrastination morning routine before. But winter is helping as I love the dark mornings and the subdued light helps somehow to feel like getting quiet and writing more x
This sounds like such a wonderful, intentional way to start the day Margaret. Love that you’re carving out this time and space each morning, and already feeling the benefits. x
I’ve been doing some research for the theme on trapeze- Playing with the studio shadows the light creates, adding a ladder or two for extra interest. Wearing tulle for light movement/ allow light to move through it (long skirts beautiful and equally difficult on trapeze). Hopefully there will be a video soon. I’ve added a link to a still taken from my “research” or messing about.
Oh wow! Just popped over to Insta for a peek. This is a stunning image Kris - love the way you've interpreted the theme, and adding those ladders was inspired! Can't wait to see the video!
Wow, Christina there’s so much richness in here. I love your approach to a theme and in the words of Alison Hammond “I’m invested”! (what a hilarious interview!) xx
