I just came home from visiting a seriously mentally ill person for whom I am a legal caregiver. My evening now: a homemade pizza, a good movie, RELAXING. I'm exhausted, but happy: he was thrilled to receive a #mossGarden that he can now tend himself. His FIRST contact with nature in decades. My sympathy to all who care for the mentally ill, who are exhausted, need strength. I wish you precious minutes to relax. And to those affected, rays of hope and the absence of emergencies! #JoinIn
Memories from my Insta archive ... Once, there was an exceptionally wet year. I didn't feel like washing my #car in the constant rain. So it became a #garden. A #mossgarden. I admire these living beings for their #resilience. #mosstodon #lichen #moss

Preparations for my #embroidered #mossgarden which will be mounted into an open wooden box (from cheese). I marked the size for #stitching with a thread. For a stronger relief effect I sewed on thick #felt. Afterwards, these colours will be invisible. Now I #embroider #FrenchKnots with #gradientYarn, as irregularly as possible, for a more natural look. I want to combine different #yarns and structures. #mosstodon #moss #BiodiversityShrines #embroidery #NatureArt #ArtsAndCraft #improvisation

The best method to get a #fairy #TinyWorld of #moss and #fungi: forget painting your garden bench! Do nothing. Just wait and see. #mosstodon #lichen #mosses #biodiversity #MossGarden #NatureIsReturning #natureismagic
