Beauty consists of its own passing, just as we reach for it. It’s the ephemeral configuration of things in the moment, when you see both their beauty and their death.
...Does this mean that this is how we must live our lives? Constantly poised between beauty and death, between movement and its disappearance?
Maybe that’s what being alive is all about: so we can track down those moments that are dying.

Dottie Angel

The pristine queen of all home-made things dripping with adorable. Her cuteness is unrivaled, and her clever fingers have mastered a plethora of crafty challenges. Like a British Snow White, I'm absolutely sure Dottie Angel could charm small forest animals into eating from the palm of her hand and wear hand knitted, polka dot sweaters. I first discovered her blog while I was spending a semester in Ireland, and I was immediately fascinated by her unique "alternate reality" take for her blog.
