Wildlife Snuggery Crochet Hanging Basket

Meet Leilani a Possum in the care of Kinjarling Marsupial Rescue.  When this Snuggery was hung in her enclosure Leilani was quick to snuggle up in it and that is how these crochet hanging baskets came to be called a "Snuggery".

Onion Flower

An onion flower just about to bloom

Yesterday we were without electricity for most of the day.  Now that we've got some of our luxuries back, like hot water and digital devices that actually do fancy things instead of looking like a dull brick, my day has been full with catching up on stuff like doing the dishes, and having lots of fun filling my Pinterest boards with all the awesome stuff my bloggy friends have shared at Pinbellish.

Which means I'm a bit short on time for writing today, so instead of blathering on and on I am sharing with you the beauty of a simple onion flower.

from a tight ball to an unfurled shining beauty the onion flower is full of suprises

An onion flower is made of lots of tiny flowers

An onion flower is so like the onion itself, as you peal back the layers, there is another.

      I was so surprised with all the detail, the camera sees more then I do.

    They are incredibly beautiful! I'm not a fan of onions - it's a texture thing - but I do appreciate them when they are being grown. Thank you for sharing with us at Photo Friday!

      Not like onions? Such a shame. I'm a huge fan and they form the base for much of my cooking.
