Birdy Diamond here, your Roving Robin Reporter. I have been tasked by the lovely Sarah to flutter around the web and bring back news of some of the neat & nifty things we birds (& the occasional bloke) are doing, so we don’t miss anything. (Or at least a lot less than we otherwise might.)

Some fantastic tips here on how to arrange your garden and make great choices that will leave you deeply happy with your outdoor spaces.

Take a Break

Beauty Break

• From Mark Faviell Photos comes this lovely gem. (via DevaCoaching.com)

• I just LOVE this colorful fabric from Skaja Wills! (Check out this post for the story behind the fabric.)

Creativity Break

@dollarcraft – @CraftTestDummy It can be a leap of faith for some people to exercise their creativity. (I feel that way about fashion – ha) #craftsocial

@FreshStitches – @carinaeh My difficult students are ones who already know a little, & aren’t open to new ideas. Then, they end up disappointed! #craftsocial

• Greenwoman is offering a monthly fiction-writing challenge. (Thnx to participant Delisa Carnegie for leading me in this direction!)

• @ArtonmyBlog is offering an opportunity to be featured on their weekly Artists Showcase. (via Monette Satterfield of “The Artful Business”)

Fun Break

I adore this video which came to me via the TwitterStream from JessVanDen

“A friend shared this on FB, and it always makes me laugh – ‘Dangerous Wands‘ – one for the #Potter fans!”

‘Quote Break

• @burgessct – Puddles are meant to be jumped in and enjoyed! RT @mirpod: Every path has its puddle. cc: @Eric_Halsey Retweeted by @qstreet

• @divamover  – A Valentine’s thought: life is too short to eat cheap chocolate. Go for dark, rich, just a bite. Quality > quantity. Words 2 live by.

• @AlexiaPetrakos A4: @torideaux, @caffeinatedelf, chocolate & caffeine. um… other than that, giving people the help I wish I had years ago #customerlove

• Kathleen_Craig Chocolate, both a motivator and a celebration RT @christybower: Chocolate is a powerful motivator! #customerlove

• @susantblake A1 I have to remember to celebrate what I HAVE accomplished, not whine about what I haven’t #customerlove

• @susantblake RT @EncouragingBird: A4- To share the wonder. Theres a lot of it out there. <-Wonder – one of my favorite things! #customerlove

Take Care of You

ClaireTompkins @ainsliehunter @bybloggers I think it’s natural to prioritize client work: the squeaky wheel. But grease yr wheel too. #customerlove

• Victoria Brouhard gives us this power vid-post about how to reassure yourself that if you couldn’t do it, you wouldn’t want it. (via AmySeyBrown)

• These may have been originally designed for the feline of the species, but I am hear to tell you that catnip makes very fine sachets for humans too! Great for soothing those everyday jitters. (I tucked one of our catnip pouches in my sis-in-spirit’s bag on her wedding day – calmed her right down!)

• And speaking of kittys, you could do a whole lot worse than learning from one.

• Heidi of ‘Heidi’s Table’ has an awesome post describing the cityscape of new growth.

Flying Away

There’s more out there of course.
There’s always more.

But for now, I must away, to search out new goodies & delights for next time.

If you have anything you’d like me to include in upcoming editions, please let me know.

If you have questions or comments on things you’ve seen here or that you’d like to see in upcoming editions, let me know those too.

Until next time!
Chirp, chirp! :>
