I so enjoyed my recent visit to New Leaf Greenhouse in Cornelius. Ginger Steele is the amazing woman who created this beautiful nursery. She has the strength of a potter, & a green thumb you won't believe. She shares some of her horticultural secrets on the New Leaf Greenhouse blog newleafgreenhouse.blogspot.com
I know you will also enjoy seeing the complex geometric designs in Ginger Steele's salt fired stoneware . insomniapottery.com
We had a lovely lunch at Ginger's with Merrie French of Valley Art Gallery in Forest Grove. If you haven't been to this wonderful gallery, you owe yourself a trip!
We laughed and let our minds wander...then we laughed some more. Ginger took me on a colorful tour of her amazing studio & nursery. I painted there for hours, belly full, laughed out, blissed. I'm still smiling.
Thank you, ladies.
