Have you scoped out our seasonal creations in The Studio @bowoodfarms ??

In addition to our gorgeous gourds throughout our front & back gardens, we also took inspiration from the gardens for upcoming workshops!

Pumpkins are obviously a favorite for workshops with @neon.robin & @emilyelizachoi but we’re also…
• crocheting dahlias as they’re in bloom with @punkinpiecrafts
• designing woodland wreaths with @hareandbearco
• making moonscapes with @holly_makes_everything
• pouring coasters with @byolgam
• painting fall sunsets with @dhbdesigns
And @clay_madebycait always makes fresh clay designs for her jewelry making workshops!

Come enjoy the season with us!

A lot of my clients are doing really, really well when they come to me….

That’s actually part of the problem 💯

Because when you’re competent, people trust you.
They ask you.
They need you.
And you get very used to being the person who figures it out.

The business decision.
The family situation.
The next move.
The thing that feels off.
The opportunity you can’t stop thinking about.

You can handle all of it….
But that doesn’t mean you should have to hold all of it by yourself.

My clients usually don’t need someone to motivate them.

They don’t need more advice flying at them from every direction.

They need a trusted brain beside theirs 💗

Someone who can see the whole picture.
Catch the pattern.
Ask the question they haven’t asked yet.
Tell them when they’re overcomplicating it.
And help them figure out what actually matters now.

You don’t have to wait until everything is on fire to get support, friend….

Sometimes the smartest move a very capable person can make is deciding they don’t have to figure everything out alone.

If that sounds like the kind of support you’ve been craving, come sit by me. It’ll rock your world in the best way ⚡️

Oh “January You” …you know her: 💁🏻‍♀️🙄

She’s going to get organized.
Start the thing.
Finish the other thing.
Make the appointment.
Have more fun.

Apparently “January You” has nothing but free time and excellent follow-through 🫣

OR.

We could use the year we still have 💯🥰

Enter: 27 Before 2027.

Make a list of 27 things you’d love to do, finish, experience, or finally stop thinking about before December 31.

Not 27 giant goals….
Some can move your business forward.
Some can make your house feel better.
Some can be things you’ve procrastinated for approximately 84 years.

And some should exist for absolutely no reason other than they’d make your life more fun 🎉

Mine includes launching my new website, decluttering my basement, starting to sew again, going on a date 🤪, flying a kite and watching Elf before Christmas.

That is the assignment….
Ambition AND joy 🎈

I put my entire 27 Before 2027 list on the blog + made you a free printable so you can make yours.

Link in bio or comment/ DM me 27 before 2027 and I’ll send you the link…. Come do it with me 🥰

And tell me below: what’s ONE thing “January You” doesn’t need to wait for? 👇🏻

It’s no secret we LOVE all things botanical @bowoodfarms and we’re finishing the prime planting season strong by repeating our @mobotgarden lecture about fall bulbs. Followed by a lesson on dahlia tubers with @flowersinclay along with a pop-up of their fresh blooms and gorgeous pottery the same day!

Find the details on our website at bowoodfarms.com and sign-up for our creative garden inspired workshops:

- @hareandbearco is helping students design wreaths and arrangements
- @kendall.buie , @byolgam and @create.play.grow.ts all have art workshops focused on using botanical elements and @macrame.mouse is back with a duo-tone plant holder this time around
- @holly_makes_everything is offering two NEW twists on our popular wreaths classes with fresh greens
- @outinthenursery101 is leading multiple Terrarium and Kokedama options through the end of the year.

p.s. We couldn’t resist grabbing a screen shot of recent attendee @lauren.knight9 close-up to wrap up this post!

Thanks as always for sharing. Be sure to tag us. We love seeing what you make! 💚
