Easter in the Spiral Garden

Our Easter eggs are ready and looking beautifully earthy with our GLOB natural egg dye and a little experimentation. @spiralgarden #glob #eastereggs #colour #natural

We had such a lovely Easter break. Did you? We has lots of fun decorating eggs with our GLOB Easter Egg kits. The whole family got involved in experimenting and playing with colour and pattern to create different effects! Later we hid eggs, some filled with bulbs to plant in the garden and in new pots that sat under our Easter/Autumn tree on Easter Sunday morning.

We have a stall at our local Steiner school's Autumn and Easter market this afternoon. Making new friends and reconnecting with old ones <3 #waldorf #market #spiralgarden

We attended our first market at the local Steiner school, selling lots of our beautiful goodies and letting the locals know we are here.

We went for a wander in the beautiful Tasmanian bush today. How has your day been? xx

And we took some time to recharge and reconnect with nature and wander around in the gorgeous Tasmanian bush.

Autumn in Tasmania... Feeling grounded after some time in nature #bushwalk #tasmania #autumn #water #rock #fern #instatassie

What did you get up to over the Easter break?
Do you get out into nature often?

Love to you and yours. xx

Easter in Autumn :: Catching our breath...

Have you hopped into our Easter shop yet? Visit spiralgarden.com.au, then click on this picture and all our recommendations for gorgeous, natural, fair trade Easter are there. xx


Hello Gardener Lovers! 
It has been such a long time since we updated here. Our first busy Christmas season was just so wonderful and over in the blink of an eye and we have only just caught our breaths again. We're hoping to come and update you here, just as much as the regular emails we send out. We do hope you'll join us as we share the wonderful discoveries we make, as we pop them in our store, and our seasonal wanderings too. 
We always find the change of seasons, especially the seasons of Autumn and Spring, so inspiring. A need to renew and prepare for the seasons to come pushes us to clean and tidy up our space and our family rhythms. And observing nature's subtle changes brings beauty and inspires lots of learning and play.
It's that ever so beautifully confusing time of year again... Easter in Autumn! In our home we try and combine the two traditions, weaving harvest time and the retreat and decline towards winter with the promise and hope of new life and growth after Winter has gone. We plant winter crops and bulbs with the promise of food to sustain us and new flowers to brighten days in the Spring! So... the Easter traditions weave in beautifully, in a round-about sort of way...
This week we've set up a special part of the shop just bursting with suggestions for Easter. Watch out for lovely new bits and pieces there! Our absolute favourite is our GLOB Easter Egg Colouring Kit. You'll have loads of fun mixing colours with these beautiful natural dyes to invent a beautiful rainbow of eggs.
