green week~four
As I was sewing away in the green room, I started to think about what today's green week post would feature. Then it occurred to me...I was sitting in a room of green. And I have to say that finding the white balance adjustment on the actual camera last week has been the greatest thing ever. Anyway, it's a small space and you've probably already seen most of it, but here are some shots that might be new:
We had another stormy day yesterday. I love snow, I won't complain. (As long as it's gone by spring and the enormous piles in our yard don't hang around until June.) But gray days filled with sleet just don't strike my fancy. So the little one and I were feeling a tad housebound and antsy. After numerous attempts to capture her attention with an activity, I had the idea of sorting beans. Our pantry is full of jars containing various dried beans. One pot of dried beans + one wooden container for sorting = at least 20 minutes of fun.
gorgeous photos - but you know i'm in love with that room. ;) and... how i miss bean play, and rice play. at 10 my girl does still love her zen garden though. i think at 99 she will love her zen garden!

That's a great spring colour for a room and nice to see a few B&W photos.

My daughter LOVES her beans! She's a bit older than yours, though, and loves pouring. I find little stashes of black beans squirreled away in all corners of the house! The green photos are great!

Love your green room! And we just did the bean sorting thing for rehab for my daughter's finger. She sorts beans all day long!
