Try this simple way to paint a fall wreath and watercolor, using a jar lid as your guide. It’s a quick little tutorial for slowing down and noticing the season. 🍁🍃

A little confession: these designs aren’t new. 🎄
Every year I bring out one new tea towel design for the season, and they’ve sold out every time — which I’m grateful for. But this year, I got to thinking about a collection I painted a while back, Ginger & Pine, that I loved... and never actually turned into towels.

So instead of debuting something brand new, I’m bringing an old favorite back to life. Swipe through and take a look at four designs from that collection.

Because these take over a month to print, I can only order a couple of the designs (maybe more, if I’m feeling brave) — so your vote genuinely shapes what gets made. Tell me: which one would you want hanging in your kitchen this Christmas? Comment the number below, and if you have a minute, I’d love to know why. The colors? The mood? Something it reminds you of?

1️⃣ Cookies 
2️⃣ Peppermint Candy
3️⃣ Pine Branches
4️⃣ Gingerbread Houses 

Can’t wait to hear what you think. 💛

The Creative Way is open again — today through August 31.

It’s a space to slow down, pick up a paintbrush, and let creativity become a way of noticing God’s presence in the ordinary. Each month brings a written reflection, a Visio Divina practice, and a beginner-friendly watercolor lesson — no experience needed, just a willingness to show up.

A sweet art retreat in the pines! So lovely to paint with these dear ladies from Elizabeth Presbyterian Church (a couple of them were in their 90’s)!
I’m grateful for the beauty of the day: a bit of solitude, the wild turkeys, hummingbirds, and pine trees. And for teaching people who have never tried watercolor before. Such a treat. 🎨🖌️💕

There’s something about an apple.
Ordinary. Familiar. Something we reach for without a second thought.
And still — full of sweetness we so easily rush past.
Join me for a free series: Taste & See. A reflection, a Visio Divina practice, a watercolor lesson — all centered on noticing God’s goodness in the everyday.
Comment “APPLE” and I’ll send it your way. 🍎🍏
