Going out the door
is old man Winter,
muttering to himself
and feeling quite bitter:
"For all my hard work,
the quality weather I bring -
all I hear around me
is joy to welcome spring!
It makes me want to storm,
it makes me want to rain,
but after a long summer
see if they don't want me again!"

Featured: I'm a bit late with
this poem, spring is almost gone
as well. But it is wonderful while
it is here and I've been making
party favors with cottage cheese
containers.
So cute and fun! Greetings!
ReplyDeleteSpring is really just arriving in my neck of the woods, Amalia, so I think your timing is perfect. Your party favors are just darling, too. I think this is an idea I might have enough talent to copy!! LOVE them!! xo
ReplyDeleteYou've made those cottage cheese containers downright cute, Amalia! I'm missing spring already, even though technically, it's not over for a few weeks. We've had a long beautiful spring, so I'm going to try really hard to not complain when it gets hot and humid here shortly.
ReplyDeleteLovely poem and such a great idea with the party favours. You must eat a lot of cottage cheese! :O) xx
ReplyDeleteha ha... I've been collecting them for a good long while :-)
DeleteDear Amalia, Your party favors are so cute and clever. I love the coloured twine and collect it when I see it (which is rarely), and use it in journalling. Your Spring poem is lovely, and I like the image of old man Winter, who is beginning to tap on our door here in tropical Australia. xox
ReplyDeleteLots of interesting ways to reuse the containers:)
ReplyDeleteDie Becher sehen richtig toll aus und sind ein wunderbares Gastgeschenk liebe Amalia.
ReplyDeleteGanz liebe Grüße

What a great use of the containers! It is winter here and today is cold :)
ReplyDeleteThe poem is perfect. I love it. Those party favors are so cute. What a great recycling project
ReplyDeleteIf we have a very hot summer, we will all be pleased to welcome the cooler temperatures back again! That's a great recycling idea!
ReplyDeleteBest wishes

Cute upcycle. I save so many jars that I really have a hard time storing them and making use of them but feel so guilty tossing them.
ReplyDeleteYour creativity has innocence , beauty and grace dear Amalia 🥰
ReplyDeletePoem is so lovely ♥️
And these party decorations are so delightful and pretty omg 🤗♥️👍
Blessings to you my friend 🙏♥️
What a sweet little craft idea, and so useful! As always, I love your poems. You have a gift.
ReplyDeleteThe poem is delightful, Amalia.
ReplyDeleteAnd those party favors are just adorable.
Such a clever and charming way to recycle everyday containers. 🌼
I love your cottage cheese containers! And the poem! We are heading into winter here; and it has been a wet one already. Odd for us as winter is normally very dry.

A very cute poem and I love those party-favors. Very clever!
ReplyDeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteThe party favors are so cute, what a great craft idea.
Cute poem too! Take care, enjoy your day and happy weekend.
That looks very sweet! Happy rest spring!
ReplyDeleteI am not sure that the weather knows quite what it is! We had a heat wave last week and we are back in jerseys this week. Have a good weekend Diane
ReplyDeleteWhat a great way to upcycle the cottage cheese containers with twine. They would make good snack containers for your nephews (or my grandchildren). Love the poem, too. I'm not nearly ready to welcome Winter any time soon, but once autumn returns, it's a different story.
ReplyDeleteThe party favors are delightful. You're talking to someone who loves the winter, so no complaining here. We are in the middle of spring, and summer will come soon, as it's getting warmer with each day. I hope you have wonderful June days, Amalia. : )
ReplyDeleteThey look fantastic, great decorating of them, great idea with the twine and such pretty flowers!
ReplyDeleteI recognised those cottage cheese containers! So sweet!
ReplyDeleteFicaram lindos!!! Parabéns.
ReplyDeleteCute poem and I love the party favors. :-)
ReplyDeleteThese are adorable!! I have a few spools of this twine in different colors..You gave me an idea about what to do with them....Thanks for visiting!!

ReplyDeleteAdorable.
ReplyDeleteI love how you've made them look all pretty! Very inspiring. And I love the poem. I think Winter gets a big wrap.
ReplyDeleteHappy Spring! What a cute and clever way to use your cottage cheese containers -- and what a terrific way to serve a dessert or take-away. They're just darling. The poem is darling. I'm not at all sorry to see old man winter leave!
ReplyDeleteA lovely poem and the containers are adorable. so creative.
ReplyDelete...yes, reuse and recycle.
ReplyDeleteSo cute! But... I pretty much never want to see winter arrive. It's far too long and cold and snowy/icy for me. LOL
ReplyDeleteLove your little containers upcycle. Very cute!
ReplyDeleteCute! I love a great upcycle.
ReplyDeleteA delightful poem with a smile and a wink for old man Winter! Creative, charming, and eco friendly too.

ReplyDeleteSuch a simple thing, to wrap cups in string. And yet, what joy it must bring! (Had to make it rhyme! Lovely idea!)
ReplyDeleteYour recycling idea is oustanding, sweet Friend, and your rhimes always put a smile on my face, thank you for the magic world you always share!
ReplyDeleteHonestly, when I come and visit you here I seem to be amazed as only a child can be.
