Let’s talk about one of the biggest home decor trends right now—Moody Home Decor. It’s been trending for months, and with Winter here, it’s on theme. ❄️
Moody decor doesn’t always mean dark (although it can be). It’s more about rich, luxurious colors like jewel tones, deep blacks, and opulent fabrics. There’s even a touch of Art Deco flair in some versions of this trend. ✨ What do you think? Do you see my art fitting into this aesthetic?

The stark white of the waterlily is accentuated by the clear darkness of the water where it floats.

Jordan Lake. The phrase “busy as a bee” certainly came to my mind as I watched this common eastern bumblebee literally stuff herself into the blossom of a whitestar morning glory. As you can see the bee was almost bigger than the blossom! Her enthusiasm is certainly on display. BTW the tiny whitestar is a native wildflower.

Jordan Lake. The crimson-eyed rose-mallows are blooming. This blossom may look familiar – especially if you have ever grown okra. However this is not okra but it is a relative and both plants are hibiscus varieties. Like okra, the rose-mallow is edible although I’ve never tasted it. The crimson-eyed rose-mallow is native to North America while the okra originated somewhere in Africa.
