Just a girl with a Chicken Dream

I have always wanted chickens. But there's one small problem—we live in a city. Now, before you picture a city like  New York, Boston, or Chicago, let me clarify. Our “city” is technically one of the smallest in the country. You can walk the entire length of it in under 15 minutes.  It has a small handful of businesses.  It is more a small town, even though on paper, it’s a city.

Welcome to Harvest and Handmade!

 Hello there, and welcome to Harvest and Handmade!

If you’ve followed me before, you might remember my previous blog, All Things Fee. After taking several years away from blogging, I’m both excited and a little nervous to be back in this space—but I’ve missed it, and I’m ready to begin again.

So, why the new name?
Harvest and Handmade reflects where I am in life right now—more intentional, more rooted, and still just as passionate about creating. Whether it’s something grown in the garden, made by hand, or simply cultivated in daily life, this blog will be a home for sharing the things I truly value: creativity, simplicity, and the beauty of making things with purpose.

Why the break?
Like many of us, life took me in different directions. I paused to focus on family, home, and some soul-searching. Stepping away gave me the space to grow—and now I feel ready to return with new inspiration, a clearer voice, and a deeper love for handmade living.

What to expect:
I’ll be sharing DIY projects, handmade goods, seasonal ideas, and bits of everyday life—hopefully in a way that feels cozy, encouraging, and real. Think of this space as a digital porch swing. Grab a cup of tea and stay awhile.

Thanks for being here at the beginning. Whether you’re an old friend from All Things Fee or brand new to this corner of the internet—welcome. I’m so glad you’re here.

—Felicia
