My friend of mine loves all things new age, and she had a psychic come by for a house blessing. On a whim, she asked if I wanted a reading for my home, and I said, sure why not?
Well, there’s no ghosties here or anything like that, but she told me my front entrance was a collecting place for anxious energy and that I should brighten it up and make it beautiful. That evening, this CAL was suggested and I thought it would be the perfect little decoration to put in my hall.
So instead of wall hangings, I made it into a garland. My kids and I will string it up on ❤ Valentine’s day ❤ as our little project of the day - and I’ll add the final photo then :)
