These are all in a Museum of Fine Arts planner that was on clearance, so the planner sheets all have art opposite them! None of them are particularly themed or anything, I mostly follow a process of deciding on one object at a time as I put them in until I feel satisfied with the end result. I love having a low-pressure, non-perfectionist creative outlet in addition to some of my more rigid hobbies like sewing and knitting!

Materials here have come from an old MFA planner that I’ve cut up, Daphne’s Diary issues, free museum and library literature, old calendars, sticker-by-number and wordsearch books I’ve finished, vintage DownEast magazines, slips of paper from The Game of Things, vintage Icelandic stamps, tea I’ve finished, and random art supplies I’ve come upon through friends and craft swaps. Washi tapes and stickers are leftovers from my earliest forays into bullet journaling (though some stickers have been purchased since then, I apologize to the gods of junk journaling)

This little guy was stuck in a deep sink potentially overnight and seemed pretty tired. I put a seed packet into the sink to scoop him and he climbed right up onto it! He seemed like a baby still so I put him outside in the shade with some cornmeal in the hopes that his mom would come back for him. He ate pretty eagerly and got a bit more active and started sniffing around, and when I came back about an hour later he was gone. I’m hoping the cornmeal provided him the necessary strength to go on a grand adventure 🫡

I work in a kind of indoor/outdoor space where rodents are just par for the course and there isn’t much we can do about it, so I didn’t feel too conflicted about feeding him a pinch of cornmeal to send him on his way. How could I not give that little face a fighting chance??
