Although I didn’t do much dyeing this weekend, I did a LOT last weekend, and have a fun blog post about a big experiment I did planned for later in the week. Spring is here in Southern CA, so jasmine and orange trees are blooming – it smells awesome! I thought I’d show you where I dye all my fabric:
When I’m dyeing the kids come out to play, and at the end of the day, everything gets cleaned up an put away, so there’s time for fun things like making pizza on the grill…
and watching hummingbirds! After almost 6 years living in S. CA I still can’t get used to how different the seasons are from other places I’ve lived…no scilla and daffodils here! What’s blooming where you live?

Beautiful shot of the hummingbird! That had to be hard to capture.
Sure looks like spring at your house. Nice set up for your outdoor dying.
Pizza looks yummy!
Daffodils…
Lilly’s
snap dragons
Pansy’s
roses
California poppies!
Bizzy Lizzy’s
to name a few… not to mention the dandelions!
For me, a great backyard space vital. It’s great for work and kids and a fresh perspective. I love your work area. It looks so efficient!
AAAAHHHHHHH Auntie Candy’s famous pizza on the grill!!! Nothing compares to it!! Now I am hungry 🙂
Your set-up is awesome! And the pizza is making me hungry – mmmm. Nothing is blooming here except MUD.
So nice that you have a designated area…outside!! Bulbs are beginning to peek through the ground. Crocus have appeared. Right now we are flooded. Maybe it will bring lots of May flowers.
I’m so jealous that you have spring, it looks so nice out there too! It’s snowing here today. 🙁
Yum and fun space! Your boys are cute – and , blooming here….just barely a crocus 🙁 and it’s probably buried in snow today.
Love your backyard dying station setup! You have a beautiful huge backyard and how fun for the boys to play in too!
Love your work area! It must be heaven to dye there!
I’m up in the High Desert — very little is blooming. The wild plum tree in my back yard and an occasional desert wild flower, but that’s about it. No hummingbirds near our house — but we do have seagulls. Go figure! (Actually, we live in between two small man-made lakes, so that’s where they come from, but it’s still kind of surreal to see them in the middle of the desert!)
This looks wonderful. Just the crocus when I left Wisco but I’m hoping something else will be blooming when I return. Thanks for sharing.
