On the tenth day of Christmas,
my true love gave to me
Ten lords a-leaping,
Nine ladies dancing,
Eight maids a-milking,
Seven swans a-swimming,
Six geese a-laying,
Five golden rings,
Four calling birds,
Three French hens,
Two turtle doves,
And a partridge in a pear tree.
We are still at the Designer Craft Show in Halifax. I had just been struck by a huge ”Coup de Coeur” for Goede Vibes. I didn’t expect to have this Beautiful & Tender ”Coup de Coeur”
I know, I have a lot of ”Coups de Coeur”. You are probably wondering if I fall to easily… I would say not at all! We arrived two months ago and I have met an impressive number of craftsmen, makers, artists, enthusiasts…. and I have the feeling that it is only the beginning! But let’s get back to Bella McBride’s whimsical Menagerie!
Bella McBride – McBride House – Where the Magic Lives…
Her Needle Felt Characters seem to come right out of Alice in Wonderland… They could have just escaped a Beatrix Potter’s Book. I could never find the right words to describe all the subtle beauty, the magical tenderness of her Imaginary Menagerie. A comforting escape, we all need right now! Come with me to a far far away land… where raccoons are reading by the fire and owls rest at the top of Christmas Trees...
