THIS IS THE BLOG/DIARY FOR MIGHTY GIRL ART™! OUR NEW WEBSITE IS LOCATED HERE!

* The purpose of our documentation is to provide a window into the creative process and the interactions within our circle. It keeps the memory of our work together alive and offers a touchstone to revisit later for further reflection by the facilitators, the parents and the children.

Women are the primary resource of the planet. They give birth, we come from them. They are mothers, they are visionaries, they are the future. If we can figure out how to make women feel safe and honor women, it would be parallel or equal to honoring life itself."

- Eve Ensler



Week Two: Everything You Do is Sacred

"Now is the season to know
that everything you do is sacred" - Hafiz










Joined today by E and M, we were very excited to have everyone together...our circle complete.  K read the poem from last week aloud then we discussed our plans for the morning over hot cocoa, while considering the above quote.  We talked about the gift of creativity and how we can use our gifts to serve others.

We put the finishing touches on our felted soaps from last week.






















We made gift tags and wrapped them for giving...






















and finished mugs.






















We took our journals into Big Woods for some inspiration.  I told the girls that my friend Maezen says, "Keep your eyes open, everything you see is the teaching".  We found deer tracks by the creek and a lot of spiders with beautiful markings that blended nicely with the leaves and the lichens. 

Spider wisdom reminds us to look for creative opportunities and to weave our dreams into reality. 

















We found a fallen tree perfect for climbing.





























When we returned we made snow globes inspired by the ones sold at Anthropologie.






































Then we ended the morning with a wish ceremony and S'mores.



Now is the season....

Three things in human life are important. The first is to be kind. The second is to be kind. And the third is to be kind. - Henry James
