As the garden settles into the transition from fall to winter, the pace naturally slows down. There’s less watering, fewer weeds, and not as many tasks demanding immediate attention. Instead of rushing around outside, I get the chance to take a step back and let the garden rest, which gives me permission to rest a little too.
With that slower pace comes more space to focus on things inside the home. This time of year always pushes me to shift my energy indoors—to start winter crafts, sewing projects, and cooking foods that feel more fitting for the cooler months. There’s something satisfying about moving from the physical work of the garden to hands-on work with fabric, tools, and ingredients.
Another big part of this seasonal shift is redecorating the house. As I swap out fall items for winter décor, it naturally turns into an opportunity for deeper cleaning. Things that I overlook during the busier gardening months, like baseboards, closets, corners, etc. finally get attention. I'm energized from mopping and it gave me a boost to write this blog entry lol!
This transition period between seasons is a reminder that slowing down doesn’t mean stopping. It just means shifting focus. The garden gets its break, and I get to refresh my home, reconnect with hobbies, and create a cleaner, calmer environment for the winter and spring ahead. I can't lie...I'm already looking forward to the spring garden!
