For Halloween, my daughter Lynn did something with her journal called "October Daily," where she did a journal spread each day in October. Her journal is about witches, learning more about what happened in history and how the witch-hunt craze became so horrible and widespread. The journal is also fun and full of bright paper, sketches and old images. This particular spread is about my twin sister and her being born in what they called a "veil."
Lynn's journals are amazing, but this "October Daily", to me, is super amazing. One of my favorite entries is Episode 7. You can see Lynn's Episode 7, and others, on YouTube at abitofbirdsong.
Thank you dear friends, and HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!
Love, Henny
Happy Halloween Henny Penny! :) Lynn's journal is so creative, what a great idea. Very interesting about the veil...that's quite a story. I never knew about caul-bearers, thanks so much for posting her video!

ReplyDeleteI deleted my previous comment because auto check put 'cup bearers' instead of 'caul bearers' in my comment. I want to say Wow, I like this journal of Lynn's. I am reading now more about caul bearers. So interesting. I have never heard of it. I am going to check out more of Lynn's videos on you tube. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThis is amazing..Absolutely amazing..
ReplyDeleteYeah! Loved it..I was glued to the screen,
probably something to do with the glue that
Lynn was using..
Tomorrow l'm gonna sit down with a pot of
coffee..and go through it again..and..take
some time out and look at some others..! :).
And a HAPPY HALLOWEEN TO ONE AND ALL...! Booo! :o),

That is so interesting. I had heard of being born in a veil before but this gave even more information. She's very creative.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful day!

ReplyDeleteThat was very interesting! And I didn't know you were a twin. :)
ReplyDeleteWell that video was interesting. I have long admired this kind of journaling, but I just can't think in that paper creatively way.

ReplyDeleteLove Lynn's tale about the caul and the story that goes with it. She is a "chip off the old block" for sure so creative like you, dear Hen. I love your blog and even though I don't comment much or follow you due to working, I read it all the time. I would love it if you would show how you take cuttings and how you take care of them through the season. Love Terry
