Handcrafted boxes for specific occasions
🪹🍃OLIVE NEST - Womb Grief box
A Santuary in a box, for hearts that are aching
The Olive Nest is a gentle offering for anyone mourning a womb-related loss ... miscarriage, stillbirth, loss of a child, hysterectomy, infertility, menopause ... or the quiet grief of dreams that could not be.It is not just a gift ... but a safe nest for sorrow to find rest, held in tenderness and deep respect.Inside you will find carefully chosen items to support moments of stillness, reflection and ritual. Each piece is chosen for its ability to comfort the body, soothe the aching heart and honour the sacred journey through loss.This box offers permission to grief, to rest and to find small threads of peace in the days when the world feels too loud.The Olive Nest is not about "moving on" ... it is about creating a space where love can remain, where memory can be cherished and where the wisdom of your own healing can slowly rise, like new shoots after Winter.Whether for yourself or someone you love, this box is an intimate gesture of care, a whisper of you are not alone!

FOREST WELLNESS WALKS
(SYLVOTHERAPY)
Have you ever let a Forest embrace you?
Sylvotherapy (Forest wellness) is the healing art of connecting with trees.Rooted in ancient wisdom and supported by science, it gently lowers stress, reduces blood pressure, boosts immunity and brings the nervous system back into balance.But beyond the benefits, it’s an invitation ... to slow down, to breathe deeply and to remember that you belong to the Earth.On my guided Forest wellness walks, we don’t rush.
We listen.
We touch bark and moss.
We walk barefoot.
We come home ... to body, breath and the quiet rhythm of Nature.This is soul-rest, not a hike or fitness trail. It is a sacred pause in the company of trees.I offer gentle, guided Forest wellness walks in the Central Drakensberg and in the Karkloof Forest (Midlands).Through stillness, breath and connection to the Land, we remember:
🌿How to listen
🌿How to rest
🌿How to return to ourselvesWhether you come to grieve, to awaken, to de-stress, for overall wellness or simply to walk in silence, the Forest welcomes you.Each walk is rooted in presence, in ceremony and in seasonal awareness.Come walk with me.
Return to stillness, one breath at a time.
Let the Forest welcome you home.
🌿🌿🌿
MEMORY-KEEPERS
More than "just art" ... they are keepers
of memories, prayers, whispered wishes
and presence
Handmade dreamcatchers, wreaths and wall art ... created with intention and care ... to honour memories, hold wishes, mark sacred moments, remember those we love ... to embrace life's tender threads.My memory-keepers are one-of-a-kind handmade creations ... custom made just for you.Each piece is a:
🌿Celebration of someone you love
🌿Quiet way to honour grief
🌿Personal altar to a Season, a story or a sacred threshold
🌿🌿🌿
BLESSINGS
Words and poems that root, rise and remember ... offered in rhythm
with the Seasons
I write short blessings aligned with Nature and her Seasons, moon cycles, Forest rhythms ... and quiet human moments.You will find them nestled in my tea boxes, gifted during Forest wellness walks or shared here as whispers from the Land.These are not religious or dogmatic. They are soft, soul-shaped offerings for anyone walking the Earth with tenderness. Short pieces to carry in your pocket, to whisper in the wind or cherish at your Season altar.May they meet you where you are ... and welcome you home!

LIVING IN RHYTHM:
NATURE AWARENESS
A gentle call to remember we are not separate
I believe in living in partnership with the Earth ... not in control of her!Through small, sacred actions, we remember how to belong again.🌿WELCOME THE POLLINATORS
Create spaces in your garden for solitary bees, butterflies, other winged allies and pollinators. Even one flowering plant in a pot becomes a haven!🌿REWILD YOUR SPACE
Let the wild flowers grow. Keep a patch of wild grass. Leave the seed heads for the birds. Dandelions are Spring bee food. Nature is not messy ... she is magnificent!🌿LIVE SEASONALLY
Notice which flowers bloom now. Feel the wind's change. Adjust your pace, your food and rituals to what the Land is doing.🌿OFFER RESPECT
Walk barefoot. Harvest with gratitude. Plant a tree or a shrub. Compost. Speak kindly to your garden ... she listens!These are small acts of love ... not to change the world, but to change how we are in the world.Start where you are. Begin with a single bee. The Earth will meet you halfway.

LIVING JOURNAL
From my Nature Desk and Peace Garden
... to you
Thoughts from the Forest path, the garden gate ... and the space between.This is not a blog. It is a field notebook. A quiet shelf. A place where I place soft thoughts, seasonal musings, poetic entries, inner reflections ... and stories whispered by the Earth.Here you may find:
🌿Reflections on seasonal living
🌿Nature messages and ally insights
🌿Notes on rituals, grief, beauty ... and becomingI write when the wind stirs something within me, not on a schedule.Coming soon:
🌿Rewilding, gentlyThank you for reading what Nature speaks through me.

A Bottle Tree: Memory, healing and glass blossomsA bottle tree is a living altar of memory, Nature guides and seasonal blessings. It is not just garden decoration or art. It is a gentle keeper of special memories, intention and change.Each bottle holds something sacred:
🌿A story lived
🌿A wish whispered
🌿An offering to a Nature ally
🌿A moment of grief or graceSome honour those loved. Others represent sacred Nature guides. (My Nature guides are the Willow Tree, Bee, Cow, Cat, Olive Thrust, Sparrow and the Earth herself.) What are yours?The bottles can change with the seasons. Some hold feathers, petals or handwritten whispers. Others clink in the wind and sing.The bottle tree is a reminder that life is layered. That beauty can hold sorrow. That memory can become medicine.Do you have a bottle tree?
