This is a stump on the side of the road in our sma This is a stump on the side of the road in our small town in New Hampshire. One day a few months back, someone left a coffee mug on the stump. The next day, someone else left one. And then another...until there were so many cups, someone added pegs to hang them. No one knows who left them. But they grow in number, and it brings a smile to all who drive by. I’ve passed this stump almost daily on my runs or running errands and it got me thinking...what if each cup represented a good deed done...not one shared for kudos and pats on the back, but one done without anyone knowing? What if someone needing a boost could take the cup, without splashing it all over the internet? This silly little, mug-covered stump is what being good neighbors is all about...bringing joy, lending a hand, giving without expecting in return. With so much divide in our worlds, we need more of this. We need to stop hiding behind a keyboard, judging others, typing things we would never say in person (or at least I HOPE we wouldn’t!) and get out there and be good neighbors. What’s filling your cup today? #strathamnh #smalltown #neighbors #stump #mugshot #randomgooddeed #fillyourcup #strathamnhart #139handcrafted

So here’s what I did with all that sisal rope... So here’s what I did with all that sisal rope...made ornaments! Every year I try to come up with something that captures the essence of the season. One year I made ornaments out of Matt’s dad’s old wine corks and sea glass (he had a love of wines like no other). One year, Matt and I gave baskets with canned goodies from the summer garden. I have made rustic barnwood trees from scraps of wood from renovating our barn. I love working on these projects because they bring me right back to the reason for the season, usually at a time when I’m rushing to get orders filled, presents wrapped and cards out. This past year was like no other, so I thought it was fitting to make a monkey fist ornament and share what it meant to me (If you can read my chicken scratch). What gift or expression really resonated with you this past holiday season? #monkeyfist #sisalrope #sailorsknot #christmasornaments #handmade #strathamnhart #139handcrafted
