weekly going out to make a fresh bouquet of leaves, twigs and local flowers for your space

botanical prints of poisonous mushrooms and plants 

embroidered pillowcases with leaves and flowers

Black bedding with a quilt overtop   

dark wood furniture that you’ve scavenged from a second hand shop

anything wicker 

lots of baskets 

delicate fairy lights 

candles, lots of candles with interesting holders

books on folklore, magic, herbs, fairytales and crafts

a collection of unique unmatching cups and mugs for guests to enjoy when they come into your space {bonus if they are dark in color, ceramic or have a pretty vintage floral\leaves pattern}

A cute gingham tablecloth of your chosen color, can easily be handmade.

Delicate jewelry or trinket boxes for holding precious items 

Black lace doilies {thrifted ones can be dyed black or another color}

while on your journeys keep an eye out for any toad shaped decor 

hand make your own little incense burners out of clay; you could put little crystals in them or sculpt them into ferocious mouths or dainty fairyhouses

a lunar calendar 

vintage cookie, tea and cake tins  

These are all just some ideas to inspire you, I hope you enjoy

every morning i wake up & get my coffee & i recite in my head this excerpt from ‘invitation,’ by mary oliver:  “it is a serious thing just to be alive on this fresh morning in the broken world.” & i just say it over & over again until it sticks to my mind for the rest of the day. it is a serious thing. i am alive. i am so lucky. this fresh morning i get the chance to live again & again & again

complicated relationships with your parents are like. you cut up fruit and bring it to my room without me asking. i can't remember the last time you told me that you were proud of me. you told me i wasn't good enough for you but i'm not even good enough for myself. your hugs feel like coming home. i can't tell you anything that happens in my life. i doubt myself every day because of something you said to me when i was eight. would you like to hear about my day? please don't ask me about my day. i miss you even though you're in the next room. i wish we didn't live together. i've never loved or resented anyone as much as i've loved and resented you. are you okay? are we okay? are we ever going to be okay?

Slow down. Enjoy your meal, focus on folding your laundry, don't rush while driving home, why are you in such a hurry? Where are you going, really? Enjoy your time in every moment. Truly live in it... Because you might get to the end of your life and realize you were racing towards nothing.
